V. William de Uldeny.

In 1482, he is mentioned in an inquest on Alexander Fraser de Philorth, along with his father, William Oudny.' In 1495, he is mentioned as son and heir of William Oudny in an inquest at his death.^

In 1503, there is a charter by WiUiam Oudny of that ilk, of an annual rent of two merks from his lands of Oudny, to Mr. David Scherar, rector at Clatt.' This seems in the same year to have been given to the chapel of the King's College, lately founded. William Oudney married Janet Seyton, probably of the Meldrum family, issue three sons : —

I. Ranald, his successor. II. Duncan, Dean of the Garioch. III. Thomas, who appears in documents, of date 1522.'

William Oudny died in 1509 or 15 10, and was succeeded by his son, VI. Ranald Uldeny of Uldeny.

There are many references to William, his son Ranald and his wife Janet Seton in this book: http://archive.org/stream/recordsofsheriff01aberuoft/recordsofsheri... "Records of the Sheriff Court of Aberdeenshire. Edited by David Littlejohn"
