  • Notes 
    • Robert joined the 42nd Regiment of Highlanders (Black Watch) in Scotland with Donald McCall, whose daughter later married Robert's son, James. They went with the regiment to America during the Seven Years War (1757-1763) and then settled at Basking Ridge, New Jersey.

      During the American Revolutionary War, both Robert and Donald supported the Crown.
