Robin I found a little bit of info for you that hopefully will lead you to more. Donald Mackay in Rogart, a Free Church Elder, who married Christina Campbell, was born in Dornoch and is a son of David Mackay and Marion Mackintosh which links to your research. Moreover, there is a lady in USA researching this family. By private email I have sent you the details and her email address. A straw but hopefully worth following up.
