As my grandmother was a Sutherland, this was a very interesting and informative topic. Just wanted to comment that I didn't realize that there were any Wemyss in County Sutherland. The Wemyss are mostly associated historically with Fife and Central Scotland and Clan McDuff before that.

The Sutherlands and Wemyss are linked several ways, I think, so you are probably right. I have read that Wemyss Castle in Fife was decorated in the Sutherland tartan.
