I will remove Robert Moray from the list and place William Brouncker, 2nd Viscount Brouncker as the first president. All reliable sources I have consulted, including the Royal Society, calls Brouncker the first president. I think the confusion steams from the generally complicated foundation of the Society. It is true that "[Moray] attended the momentous foundation meeting at Gresham College on 28 November 1660, was chosen to preside at many of the early gatherings."(David Allan Oxford Dictionary of National Biography) But he was not the first president.
