Biography
Hector Sutherland is a member of Clan Sutherland.
Hector was born about 1440. He is the possible son of Alexander Sutherland.
Hector Sutherland of Dilrid (also known as Dirlot) is a curious character in the history of Clan Sutherland. In his History, Sir Robert Gordon refers to him as a son of Earl Nicholas. The only problem is we have no evidence of a Nicholas, Earl of Sutherland. There is no doubt that he lived but from the dates he lived, it is most probable that he was a son of Alexander 3rd of Duffus rather than his grandfather Nicholas of Forbat and 1st of Duffus.
