Note: Hannay: "The Hannays of Kirkdale in Kirkcudbrightshire are a cadet branch of the Hannays of Sorbie, and acquired Kirkdale in 1432. Wiliam Hannay, who succeeded in 1716, had, with other sons, Samuel, Alexander, and Ramsay (and probably a daughter). Alexander fought at Minden and was later Adjutant General in India and Commander of the Army of the King of Oude, while Ramsay was a merchant, trading in India and China.
Samuel Hannay of Kirkdale, a London merchant and M.P., in 1783 succeeded, under a patent of 1630, to a baronetcy of a distant kinsman, Sir Robert Hannay of Mochrum. He had married Mary, daughter of Dr. Robert Meade and died in 1790, leaving an only son, in the service of the Emperor of Austria, and two daughters, the younger of whom married Captain Thomas Rainsford, Provost Marshall on St. Helena during Napoleon's exile, and from whom descend the family of Rainsford Hannay.
