Huisman that appeared in the Dutch genealogical magazine De Nederlansche Leeuw, Maandblad van Het Koninklijk Nederlandsch Genootschap voor Geslacht- en Wapenkunde in the Aug/Sep edition of 1962. It appears there under the rubric "Korte Mededelingen". Apparently, the author of this note went to Scotland to research what could be found there to either support or disprove the assertions made by W. Wijnaendts van Resandt as to the Scottish origins of the family.
