HISTORICAL GENEALOGY OF THE McCURDY FAMILY: μThere are traditions existing
in many families that the McKirdys descended from a chieftain named Gilkrist,
who was supposed to have flourished about 1525; whether this was Gilkrist
of Brothog, his son Gilkrist, or a son of one of the other Makurerdys mentioned
in the general charter is unknown. Be that as it may, Gilkrist the chieftain
had four sons: Gilkrist, Donald, Finlay and John.
μDonald was the father of Donald Jr. and Alexander; the latter's son
Robert was the father of Robert, the Baron of Garratchy, to whom most of
the feued lands descended.μ4
Children: Donald** (~1520-~1600)
Alexander (~1518-)
