Wife & sister of Ferquhard MacTaggart
« on: Thursday 30 April 20 02:00 BST (UK) »
I have seen it said that Ferquhard married Margaret MacGillvray.

I'm curious if anyone knows what the source is for this statement.

I think this website is based on the book The Great Clan Ross by John Robert Ross, among others. This might've come from that book. I haven't been able to get a look at it. But if it did come from this book, then what is his source for the statement?

I've also seen it said that Ferquhard had a sister who married Kenneth Matheson.

It sounds like this idea comes from the Bennetsfield MS, but it's not clear. I'm curious if there is anyone that might know what the MS actually says about this relationship.

Thanks.
