| 1051 | Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Alexander, a manufacturer in Paisley." | Stewart, Alexander (I14830)
|
| 1052 | Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Alexander, [a] late tacksman of Leanachoill, who had seven sons, all dead except two." | Stewart, Alexander (I15059)
|
| 1053 | Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Alexander, [a] subtenant to his brother [John]. [He has] one son [who is] a minor. [He pays] rent £200." | Stewart, Alexander (I14858)
|
| 1054 | Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "An English Rider and doing well, one son." | Stewart, Alexander (I14854)
|
| 1055 | Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Mr Alexander Stewart, late Bailie in Glasgow, had no sons." The will of his brother, Robert, in 1813, lists Alexander as a trustee, and as a baillie and merchant in Glasgow. OPR shows he had 10 children, but according to The Ardvorlich History only three of those survived to adulthood and only one married. According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's account: "Alexander Stewart son of John Stewart Glenfinlas and Mary Buchanan married ____ Wilson. He went to Glasgow." | Stewart, Alexander Baillie in Glasgow (I15019)
|
| 1056 | Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "One of his sons was Alexander, who died [as] a cow-feeder in Glasgow and left four sons." | Stewart, Alexander (I14901)
|
| 1057 | Alexander is described in the 1684 testament as a predeceased brother of James Stewart in Wester Auchtow. Whether he was an older or younger brother is unknown and does not adversely affect the accounting of this family. However, the fact that he died before James would lend a small weight to the suggestion that Alexander was older. It is presently suggested that Alexander was the older brother and that the property of Auchtow would have passed firstly to him, and, presumably with heirs failing, then latterly to his brother James. | Stewart, Alexander (I15039)
|
| 1058 | Alexander is described in the 1684 testament as the son of James Stewart in Wester Auchtow. | Stewart, Alexander (I15003)
|
| 1059 | Alexander is described in the Fasti Ecclesia as: "Alexander Stewart, born 1712, eldest son of Alexander Stewart of Strathgarry, in which he succeeded his father; licensed by the Presbytery of Dunkeld on 3rd June 1740; presented by James, Duke of Atholl, Dec. 1740; ordained 6th May 1741; died very suddenly 29th July 1780. He was an eloquent preacher in Gaelic. he married on 20th October 1742 to Isobel (who died 15th Oct. 1768), daughter of John Robertson of Lude, and had issue -- Cecilia, born 2nd Sept. 1743 (married 25th Jan 1770 to Gilbert Stewart of Fincastle); Duncan, minister of Balquhidder, born 31st March 1747; Jean, born 20th Nov. 1749 (married 10th March 1773 to Alexander Small, minister of Kirkmichael); Sharles, born 30th Jan. 1753, died 30th Dec. 1778; Margaret, born 2nd March 1755; Alexander, D.D., minister of Canongate, born 29th Jan. 1764. -- published Stewart's Sermons (Memoir)." The Scottish Journal gives Isobel's father's name as Patrick Robertson of Lude. | Stewart, Rev. Alexander 3rd of Strathgarry (I15001)
|
| 1060 | Alexander is described in the Fasti Ecclesia as: "Alexander Stewart, born 29th Jan 1764, son of Alexander Stewart, minister of Blair Athole; educated at the University of St. Andrews; tutor in the family of Graham of Greigston; licensed by the Presbytery of St. Andrews 8th Feb 1786; ordained to Moulin 21st Sept 1786; Master of Arts from St. Andrews 1792; transferred to Dingwall 1805; presented by George IV, transferred and admitted (to Canongate in Edinburgh) 13th July 1820; died 27th May 1821.

|
| 1061 | Alexander is found in 1841 and 1851 residing at Upper Hythie with his parents. | Stewart, Alexander (I14921)
|
| 1062 | Alexander is found residing with his parents in Stank in 1841. | Stewart, Alexander (I14902)
|
| 1063 | Alexander is mentioned in miscellaneous notes in the (John) MacGregor Collection: "John Dow Stewart in Glenfinglas had two sons,- James and Alexander. James 1673 had a son named Alexander 1703 who married Mary Stewart and they had three sons - Robert, Duncan and James. Alexander who was father to Duncan Stewart in Lack 1676 and grandfather to John Stewart in Glenbuckie." The meaning of the last sentence is uncertain. The only John Stewart in Glenbuckie that could fit chronologically would be John Stewart of Benmore who became 13th of Glenbuckie by marriage. John Stewart of Benmore and 13th of Glenbuckie, was the son of Capt. John Glas Stewart of Benmore and his wife, Margaret Stewart, daughter of John Stewart, 4th of Ardsheal. Capt. John Glas Stewart was the son of John Stewart of Coll and an unknown woman, born ca. 1660-1670. If she was a daughter of this Alexander Stewart, then that would make Alexander the great-grandfather of John Stewart of Glenbuckie. John Stewart, 4th of Ardsheal, was married to an unknown woman, born ca. 1665-1670. If she was a daughter of this Alexander Stewart, then that would also make Alexander the great-grandfather of John Stewart of Glenbuckie. There is no accounting that could make Alexander the grandfather of John Stewart of Glenbuckie. | Stewart, Alexander (I15056)
|
| 1064 | Alexander is not certain to be a son of this family. His father's first name not given is not given in the OPR but Duncan was residing in Monachyle Mor at the time. It is possible that Alexander could be the son of James in 1/3 Monachyle, but unlikely. | Stewart, Alexander (I14867)
|
| 1065 | Alexander is not described in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died young. However, Alexander is listed in the New Zealand family tree, thus he may have survived and emigrated. | Stewart, Alexander (I14935)
|
| 1066 | Alexander is not found in the 1851 census and is presumed to have died young. | Stewart, Alexander (I14806)
|
| 1067 | Alexander is not found residing with his parents in 1841, 1851 or 1861 and is presumed to have died in childhood. | Gillespie, Alexander (I6896)
|
| 1068 | Alexander is not identified by name in Stewarts of the South but is said to have been already deceased by the time of authoring, ca. 1815. | Stewart, Alexander (I14913)
|
| 1069 | Alexander is not mentioned by Mrs. Stewart of Milton, so he is presumed to have died young. He certainly died before his brother Donald, otherwise he would have inherited Monachyle. | McDonald, Alexander (I9871)
|
| 1070 | Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died young. | Stewart, Alexander (I14836)
|
| 1071 | Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died young. | Stewart, Alexander (I14875)
|
| 1072 | Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and thus is presumed to have died young. | Stewart, Alexander (I14874)
|
| 1073 | Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South. If this family is correctly accounted for then it is presumed that Alexander died young. | Stewart, Alexander (I14851)
|
| 1074 | Alexander is not mentioned in the 1873 family tree and is presumed to have died at birth. | Stewart, Alexander (I14849)
|
| 1075 | Alexander is presumed to have died as a child prior to the birth of his same-named brother in 1708, or, given the similar dates of 19 JAN / 19 JUN, it's possible that there is only one Alexander and the dates have become confounded. | Cuthbert, Alexander (I3211)
|
| 1076 | Alexander is presumed to have died in childhood prior to the birth of his same-named brother in 1778. | Stewart, Alexander (I14919)
|
| 1077 | Alexander is presumed to have died young prior to the birth of his same-named brother in 1764. Alexander is not mentioned in the family biography in the Fasti Ecclesia. | Stewart, Alexander (I14907)
|
| 1078 | Alexander is presumed to have died young prior to the birth of his same-named younger brother in 1771. | Stewart, Alexander (I14948)
|
| 1079 | Alexander is recorded as a minor in 1707 in his father's 1708 testament. It is suggested that his line became extinct and that the property of Duart passed to his great-uncle Sean Rob Stewart. The testament lists two tutors for Alexander, namely "Robert Stewart and James Stewart in Glenfinglas". It is suggested that these tutors were Alexander's grand-uncles, Sean Rob and James who came about this time from Wester Invernenty to Glen Finglas, perhaps to care for Alexander and the Duart estate. | Stewart, Alexander in Duart (I14812)
|
| 1080 | Alexander is recorded in Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions for Kilmahog Cemetery #25 as: "son Alexander, 10 MAR 1858, age 66." | Stewart, Alexander (I14840)
|
| 1081 | Alexander is recorded in Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions for Kincardine Cemetery: 68 Alexander STEWART, farmer (at) Westwood, died 16 AUG 1879, age 75, wife Mary DOWNIE, 7 SEP 1876, age 59, son Duncan 1837 infant, , Duncan 13 JUN 1873, age 34, daughter Mary 28 JAN 1904, age 63, (her husband Charles MOORE of Dunedin (in) New Zealand). | Stewart, Alexander in Westwood (I15066)
|
| 1082 | Alexander is recorded in Stewarts of the South as "Alexander is a spirit dealer [at the] foot of Cannongate, Edinburgh, and is doing well. He has two sons who are minors." His sons have not been identified. Alexander's daughter, Catharine, is recorded in The Ardvorlich History as "(McDonald of) Monachyle's niece". The IGI confirms her father's name was Alexander Stewart. It is most likely that the Alexander in question would be from Christian's home area and that they were married before moving to Edinburgh as it is highly unlikely that Christian would move from Balquhidder to Edinburgh as a single woman. Thus we can have some confidence in searching for Alexander in Stewarts of the South. Two matches can be found for Alexander Stewarts residing in Edinburgh -- both were spirit dealers, both with two sons listed in Stewarts of the South and both born within two years of each other. This Alexander is preferred as the entry specifies that he lived "at the foot of the Cannongate" which is where the two daughters were baptized. This entry also matches maternal onomastics. Alexander Stewart marred Christian McDonald on 29 Nov 1807 Strowan, Perthshire, Scotland. (Ref. SP383 - ref 20/396 Monzievaird & Strowan) Alexander has not been found in the 1841 census and may have died. | Stewart, Alexander (I15054)
|
| 1083 | Alexander is recorded in Stewarts of the South as having died at home. (No birth record has been found). | Stewart, Alexander (I14880)
|
| 1084 | Alexander is recorded in Stewarts of the South as: "Alexander, who died last year (ca. 1814), one of my most familiar acquaintances on earth, and a very great favourite, a clever [and] active man and a good scholar." | Stewart, Alexander (I14834)
|
| 1085 | Alexander is recorded in the 1814 Moss Census as having died in 1786 at age 1-1/2 of hives. | Stewart, Alexander (I14868)
|
| 1086 | Alexander is shown here quite speculative as the son of Patrick Galloch, solely because of Alexander's sons with matching names Alexander and Peter (a common alias for Patrick). | Galloch, Alexander (I6562)
|
| 1087 | Alexander is suggested by onomastics only. He is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died in childhood. | Stewart, Alexander (I14949)
|
| 1088 | Alexander is suggested to be a younger son of Duncan MacRobert STEWART, 3rd in Glenogle. Alexander's name and identity is inferred from the 1684 testament of his suggested son, James Stewart in Wester Auchtow. | Stewart, Alexander in Achtow (I14929)
|
| 1089 | Alexander is the only son of James Stewart of Tar to be described in Stewarts of the South. According to Stewarts of the South, Alexander's brothers had all died prior to the writing of that document ca. 1815. Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Alexander, the oldest of them was married to an aunt of the present [MacGregor of] Glengoil (Glengyle). [Alexander] left five sons; three sons of them are dead. [The two living sons are] James, the oldest, is a soldier, Gregor is a grocer in Glasgow." (sic) Parish records confirm that Alexander actually had six sons. Alexander himself is also described in Stewarts of the South (ca. 1815) as being already deceased, as indeed are all the sons of James Stewart of Tar. | Stewart, Alexander (I14912)

|
| 1093 | Alexander married Janet STEWART daughter of Alexander Stewart "in Gartnafuaran" who was dead by 1707. She is believed to be his second-cousin, the daughter of Alexander Stewart, son of Andrew Stewart, 6th of Gartnafuaran. | Stewart, Alexander in Duart (I15040)
|
| 1094 | Alexander may be the "Dr. Stewart of Glasgow" mentioned in the testimony of Robert Stewart in Buchany from the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856) or it could refer to his younger brother, James: "Declared that he was personally acquainted with Alexander Stewart late tenant in Carse of Cambus who is now at Blairdrummond Moss and that he was also acquainted with his father James Stewart who was tenant in Carse of Cambus, and was buried in Kilmadock Churchyard in 1826. That he also knew John Stewart Merchant in Kippen, who was the brother of James last mentioned, and the father of Dr Stewart of Glasgow, and John Graham Stewart also in Glasgow. Declares that the father of John and James above mentioned was Hugh Stewart, who was first a tenant in Ballacaish, under Mr Stewart of Craigton, which adjoins Annat, and afterwards in Carse of Cambus, and that Hugh is also buried in Kilmdaock Churchyard. That Hugh Stewart was first married to Margaret Buchanan, who was the mother of John Stewart in Kippen, and second to Janet [Duncandow] who was the mother of Janet Stewart in Carse of Cambus. That Hugh Stewart was son of John Stewart tenant first in Ballacaish aforesaid, and afterwards in Lendrick which was one of the forfeited farms on the Perth estate." Alexander has not been found in later public records. | Stewart, Alexander (I21740)
|
| 1095 | Alexander McFarlane is found in the 1814 Drummond Moss Census residing at 29 Kirk Lane with his birth family. The reference is confusing because it clearly shows two different families each headed by an Alexander McFarlane. Alexander's wife, Christian McLean is believed to be an error for Christian McLeran. However, the ages shown for Alexander and Christian are too old by at least ten years to be the parents of the children shown. It is suggested that their ages, as shown, are also an error. The children shown here match with OPR births from Balquhidder, which is consistent with the noted origin of the family. However, the persons deceased listed here match with the family of a different Alexander McFarlane who married Isabel Wilson in Kipping, Stirlingshire, Scotland, who also matches with the deceased Isobel Wilson noted here. The conflation of these two families has not been resolved. For now, both are shown here merged, even though their dates overlap.

|
| 1096 | Alexander moved to Seattle, King County, Washington State, USA where he had descendants. | Campbell, Alexander Duncan (I2182)
|
| 1097 | Alexander never married nor had children. Alexander is described in Stewarts of the South as being "with his father at Glenfinglas" ca. 1815-1820. The Ardvorlich History shows no family for him. According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's Account, Alexander resided at Duart for a while with his nephew Duncan Stewart, brother to Mrs. Stewart in Milton. She mentions later: "Alexander Stewart in Auchnahard was designed Alastir Donachie - Donachie being my grandfather (on father’s side). The other Alexander in Glenfinlas was Alastir Rob. Robert being my husband’s grandfather (uncle) [grandfather]." The 1881 census shows Alexander living at Glenfinglas Road, Achnahard, Glenfinglas, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. | Stewart, Alexander Donachie in Auchnahard (I15023)
|
| 1098 | Alexander never married. | Ferguson, Alexander (I5915)
|
| 1099 | Alexander presumably died young prior to the birth of his same-named half-brother in 1743. | Stewart, Alexander (I14870)
|
| 1100 | Alexander resided on his estate near Calais, France. | Cuthbert, Alexander Roger (I3219)
