James Mackay

Servant to Magdalene Scott, Lady Bruce of Kinross, and member of Forbes's congregation (Registers of the Episcopal Congregation in Leith, pp. 16, 27, 30, 57, 58). Mackay was taken prisoner alongside Robert Forbes in September, 1745 (Registers, p. 30), but Prisoners of the '45 is clearly mistaken in identifying him as the James Mackay who drowned in Liverpool after sentence of transportation (vol. 3, pp. 108-09); this happened in March 1747, but Mackay is active years later in the Lyon in Mourning.
