A family of this name held lands from the abbots of Cupar from the middle of the fifteenth century. William Mek had a tack of part of Cowbyr in 1457, and Will Meyk was the tenant of Coupergrange in 1468. A Robert Meik was made burgess of Perth in 1545, and John Meyk was a Blackfriar of Perth in 1549. Margaret Meike was a resident in the parish of Borgue in 1684, and five more of the name are recorded in the Commissariot Record of Dunkeld. (This was the record of the commissary court which had jurisdiction over domestic relations).
