There are conflicting accounts about the relationship of William Gray of Jamaica to Skibo Castle. Stephanie Barczewski shows William Gray of Jamaica purchasing Skibo in 1777; other secondary sources such as John Evans, supported by the Historic Environment Scotland portal, show William Gray rebuilding the house and dying at Skibo in 1760. There is broad agreement that the estate was sold by the Grays c. 1786.
