If his son followed his views it would seem unlikely. He was  married in the 'relief congregation' church Irvine.

( Just to add. I found that the marriage took place just after an interesting time in the history of that particular church   https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buchanites )

I found this link which has books about the Jacobite Rising which might help. I found one mine listed in the Books.
