John Scot, minister of Dipple (1683-1726), was the son of John Scot, burgess in Forres, as is shown by a deed recorded in Elgin Commissary Records, and was not the King's College student of 1674-78. In 1673, he was a "schoolmaster at Ballindalloch," ie: tutor at Ballindalloch Castle, and, in 1677, the Presbytery of the Aberlour recommended him to the Bishop of Moray for license. In 1680, he was "chaplain to the Bishop of Moray". He is probably "Joannes Scot, Moraviensis" of the Kings College Class, 1667-71, and seens to have taken his M.A. degree, though the official record of the ordinary graduates of that class is lost.
