[15] 24. In Vol. I., page 339, it is mentioned that Robert McColl, in 1604, with his sons John, Malcolm, and Patrick, had changed his name to Buchannan; he was a son of Allaster McRobert Moir in Strathyre; also at page 348 Duncan McRobert changcd his surname to that of Dougall; VcCole is evidently VcCoull; thus Donald and his "four brethren" appear to have been of this Strathyre family.

[16] Duncan, Patrick, and Alexander, having taken the name of Livingstoune, obtained a remission. Duncan and Allastair, both living in Callander, July 1612, were charged with the slaughter of Robert Mcphatrik Oig in Strathyre. July 24th, same year,

[17] 1649 24. In Vol. I., page 339, it is mentioned that Robert McColl, in 1604, with his sons John, Malcolm, and Patrick, had changed his name to Buchannan; he was a son of Allaster McRobert Moir in Strathyre; also at page 348 Duncan McRobert changcd his surname to that of Dougall; VcCole is evidently VcCoull; thus Donald and his "four brethren" appear to have been of this Strathyre family.

[18] 1649 list
116 Alexander Fergusone in Innervuckling,
117 Donald Fergusone in Lagan both in Strathyre,

[19] E69/19/1/88 - Hearth Tax Balquhidder 1691
Strathyre is the east end of Balquhidder from Loch Lubnaig to the foot of Glen Ogle.
Balwhidder parochen Strathyre : Robert mcgregor and Finlay fergusone -- 2 -- £1.8.0
Donald miller and Donald mcgregor wt [with] a myln -- 3 -- £2.2.0
Alexander fergusone and robert mcgregor -- 2 -- £1.8.0
Alexander mcgregor and Donald fergusone -- 2 -- £1.8.0
Alexander mcgregor and John fergusone -- 3 -- £2.2.0
This is a big assumption, but it is likely that several of these NacGregors descend from the Strathyre line of Patrick roy. Therefore I have shown Robert, Donald and Alexander McGregor as possible sons of Alasdair in 1649. Note also that Alasdair in the 1649 list was himself using the alias Ferguson. It may not ever be possible to determine which was which, but I suspect that one of these was likely to be the grandfather of Duncan McPharrie, who was born in 1725.
Note there are no Drummonds in the Hearth tax roll. However, the Earl of Perth was a Drummond and the MacGregors, whose name had been made legal again in 1661 were to be proscribed again shortly after the time of the hearth tax as a result of their involvement in the 1689 Jacobite rising. Again it's a big assumption, but one or more of the Strathyre MacGregors may then have adopted the alias Drummond with the favour of their landlord.

[20] MacPharrie might have been the same Duncan Drummond or MacGregor in Strathyre who had been involved with Rob Roy's sons in the kidnapping in December 1750 of Jean Key as a wife for Robin Oig, for which Robin was hanged in 1754. James Mor excaped from prison into exile in France, where he died, while Duncan was acquitted. His involvement could be the reason for Walter Scott mistakenly claiming that Rob Roy had a son named Duncan. He was probably the same Duncan who was married to Kate, a daughter of Coll and granddaughter of Rob Roy some time after the '45.

1. Duncan Mcpatrick VcCoulchere mentioned in proscription roll Feb. 1589-90. James Commendator of Inchaffray was called upon August 1590 to be surety for him amongst others. On Nov. 15, 1592, Sir John Murray of Tullibardine got the escheit of Duncan Mcpadrik Maccoulcheir MacGregor in Innernantie for not removing from the said land. Duncan was one of the pledges proposed in 1601, and was one of Glenstray's pledges to the Council, January 1604. He was cxecuted for intercommoning with the Laird of McGregor March 2, 1604.
2. John dhu Lean Mcpatrick VcCoullchere, he was on the roll of 1589-90 and was complained of by name to the Council with some others by Colquhoun of Luss, Nov. 22, 1602. In 1611 he was pursued by a military party under the Government and a private soldier sustained wounds in the pursuit. In March 1612 in a skirmish at Tomzarloch amongst the killed is John Patrick Nadidin MacGregor VcCulchere, probably the same.
3. Patrick Mcphadrick VcCoulchere in roll Feb. 1590.
4 Gregor ger Mcphadrick VcCoulchere denounced in same roll. James Drummond, Commendator of Inchaffray, the following August became surety for him. In 1613 a letter from the King mentions Gregor is to be delivered with Robert Abrach to the charge of the Earl of Perth and the Master of Madderty. The two sureties were summoned to exhibit their charges Feb. 1614, but it was stated that "Gregor Gair was in Ireland. He appears to have had a son “Dowle Oig McGregor Ger" apprehended by "Scogy McIntyre” who in March 1614 received a reward for the service, and Dowle Oig was thirefter execute to the deid."
