- (Research):ean CUTHBERT b: ABT 21 SEP 1711 in Castlehill, Inverness, Inverness, Scotland, possibly this generation, was born to John Cuthbert, 11th of Castlehill and his wife Jean/Jane, variously described as Heiress of Dalkerthy and Dalkethy. Neither of these places have been found to exist. It's possible there was a Dalkethy, derivative from Dalkeithy perhaps located nearby to Inverkeithny, about ten miles east of Keith, Banff. However the family of Hay is known to have held the estate of Delgaty which seems close enough to likely be the correct derivation. According to Bulloch: "Right Rev. William Hay, DD, of St. Andrews of the family of Park in Moray, was born 17 FEB 1647, died 1707, son of William Hay, A.M., master of the music school in old Aberdeen whom he succeeded about 1688. [He] was Minister of Perth and was consecrated Bishop of Moray, 11 MAR 1688 at St. Andrews. After he was deposed, he returned to the house of his son-in-law, John Cuthbert, where he died 17 MAY 1707. He married Mary, daughter of John Wemyss, parson of Rothes."
1711 seems early is this is the jean who matrried John Alves.
