What is evidence that Rev. Hugh Munro, of Durness, married a daughter of the 1st Lord Reay? She is not mentioned in the relevant Scots Peerage article. Rev. Munro's biography in the Fasti (I do not have the relevant reference to hand, but will post it tomorrow) only says he married and had the daughter listed here. The Book of MacKay, pp. 142-143, at the end of an extensive biography of Lord Reay, does not mention her.

There may well be a fabrication at this point in the alleged line. We have this: Donald Mackay, 1st Lord Reay, fiar of Strathnaver "mar. (3) 1631 Elizabeth Thomson (d. c. Jun 1637), dau. of Robert Thomson, of Greenwich, co. Surrey, Keeper of the Queen's Wardrobe only child by third marriage: 3. Hon Ann Mackay, mar. Alexander Macdonald, brother of Sir James Macdonald of Sleat" ...Which would break the alleged line to Mary Anne Macleod. http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/reay1628.htm DSH Manu Forti Fortem Posce Animum Mortis Terrore Carentem Decimus Junius Juvenalis [Juvenal] (ca. 60 A.D.
