Marriage Notes:
"Thomas, of Duninald in Angus. This Thomas appears on more documents than the lairds of Allardice of this period, perhaps because the lairds all died young before they had a chance to become too involved in public affairs. A 1649 charter to his wife (Agnes Leighton) calls him tutor of Allardice. In 1657 Oliver Cromwell, then protector of England and Scotland, granted to Thomas and his heirs lands in Fawside and Thornton.
In 1663 the crown granted Duninald (2 miles south of the town of Montrose) to Thomas. In 1681 he was appointed commissioner of excise (tax) for Kincardineshire. Thomas died before March 4, 1697, and probably closer to 1687.
He married (by 1649) Agnes, daughter of Patrick Leighton of Duninald .... Thomas and Agnes had issue"
