Notes |
- Hugh, son of William, son of Freskin, styled also Hugh Freskin and Hughde Moravia, appears under the first designation in various charters from1195, frequently along with his brother William, who also in a charterabout 1200, already cited, styles him lord and brother. He inherited thelands of Duffus and Strabrock, and Brice, Bishop of Moray, granted tohim, as Lord of Duffus (between 1203 and 1214), a free chapel in hiscastle of Duffus. Some time before 1211 he had acquired, by grant orotherwise, a large tract of land in Sutherland. How extensive that wasdoes not appear, but it included Skelbo, in Dornoch parish, on one side,and the greater portion of Creich parish on the other, and perhaps wasidentical with the later earldom. In any case he granted Skelbo, and thelands of Invershin and Fernebucklyn to Gilbert de Moravia, Archdeacon ofMoray, who afterwards gave them to his own brother Richard. Hugh Freskindied possibly before 1214, but certainly before 1222, as which date hisson William had succeeded, and he was buried in the church of Duffus. Heis called, perhaps on account of his benefactions to the Churhc, theblessed Hugh, and seems to have been honoured with canonisation. [TheScots Peerage VIII:320-321]
