1.Archibald McAulay in Greenock;  on his chlildren's baptismal records
he was stated as being the brother german to the Laird of Ardincaple; he m.
Elizabeth McAulay and they had the following children:
2.Aulay McAulay, born or bapt. on 8/29/1729
2.Elizabeth McAulay, born or bapt. on 4/18/1734
2.Margaret McAulay, born or bapt. on 11/27/1735
All in West, Old Parish, Greenock
As there was a fairly large gap in years between Aulay and Elizabeth, my
guess would be that there were other children in between.

On January 23, 1685, Col. James Douglas, Lt. Livingston and Coronet Douglas, along with a party of horse, surprised James Dun, Robert Dun, Alexander M'Aulay, Thomas Stevenson, John M'Clude and John Stevenson who were at prayer in the Caldunes, in the parish of Montigaff in Co. Galloway.
