Robert....You have done quite a lot of reading.I have not followed any of the books you mentioned.
My husband is a decendant of Uriah Sutherland of Frederick Co. Va. 1787.When I was recently in Scotland I was checking The National Archives for Alexander Southerland because another relative (decendant of Hannah Sutherland) had lines connected back to Alexander born in 1620.With that info I found only 1 recorded birth certificate for Alexander 02/May/1620. Parents Rot. Sutherland and Elspeth Hay. in Elgin, N. Scotland. (Ref # 135/1). It was written in Gaelic so difficult to read but I had help.
I did not have time to follow through and check connections or any further families.IF you would like to email me I can send you what info I have and perhaps it will [email protected]
