^Note: Armstrongs of Moyaliffe.
The Armstrongs acquired Moyaliffe (formerly Mealiffe) in the 1690s. When Thomas Armstrong purchased Moyaliffe House it was apparently just a small stone house built close to the foot of the old moat which still had the remnants of the tumbled castle on top. Eventually the estate was bought by the Land Commission in the 1950s and divided among local farmers. The house itself was sold by the last of the family to live there in 1999. Moyaliff House.
