"The name Ochiltree has been spelled in various ways, such as Ockeltree, Okiltree, Okletrce, Ogletree, Oughiltree, Augletree, Uchilrie, and Ocheltree; in some instances, now, pronounced with the long sound of "o". A member of one branch of the family, that spells it "Ocheltree," states that his father had told him that it was originally spelled "Ochiltree." We find it spelled thus in Scottish history and by the larger portion of the family. As it would not be practicable to follow out the various methods of spelling, we adhere throughout this history, to the one standard spelling."3
