He was apparently a minor and unmarried when his father died, for, in 1541, Oliver Sinclair of Pitcarnie, styled also of Solway Moss, obtained a grant of his casualty of marriage, nor was he infeft as heir to his father till 1557. In 1547 Dunbeath obtained from William Gordon, Treasurer of Caithness, and Rector and Parson of St. Magnus' Hospital at Spittal, a charter of Mybster and Spittal, confirmed by Queen Mary in 1565. In 1562 and 1564 he got from Adam, Bishop of Orkney, charters of Downreay, Brubster, Thura, and other lands, for which a Crown charter of confirmation issued in 1557.11
