MACINTOSH, WILLIAM [SSNE 149]
Text source
Captain William Macintosh was outlawed by Sir Alexander Falconer of Halkerton for failing his full levy of 23 men to serve under Colonel Robert Maxwell, Earl of Nithsdale [SSNE 531] in Danish service and their transport to Glückstadt (‘luksteid’) in Germany according to Macintosh’s bond to Nithsdale on 4 September 1627. William’s penalty was 5 dollars per missing man. Nithsdale then outlawed William’s cautioner, Mr Angus Macintosh, minister at Kingussie, who later paid the money. As a result Nithsdale assigned the legal action and the recovery of the money to Mr Angus on 12 February 1629. William Macintosh was a captain in Skane regiment in 1629.
