Notes - Dispute to title
William Sutherland, 4th of Duffus had a niece, Christina Sutherland, who was the daughter of his brother Alexander. After she married William Oliphant she disputed the right to the title of Duffus. She had powerful friends and the issue was long debated in the ecclesiastical courts in both Scotland and Rome. The matter was finally settled in about 1507 in a contract which favoured William Sutherland and in which Christina's son, George Oliphant, signed over his rights to the estates to William Sutherland who subsequently received a Crown charter for the lands of Duffus
