| 1151 | Alexander's first name is not confirmed. It is suggested by onomastics. | Stewart, Alexander? (I15005)
|
| 1152 | Alexander's identity is purely theoretical and is suggested only from onomastics. It is presumed he died young. | Stewart, Alexander? (I14956)
|
| 1153 | Alexander's marital status at his death is shown as "married". His brother Matthew was the informant. Curiously, his length of residency in Ontario is given as 35 years although he was 45 years old. | McCulloch, Alexander Lawson (I9834)
|
| 1154 | Alexander's marriage record lists him as "a farmer at Back Borland." His age in 1841 is given as 60 and his place of birth was Stirlingshire. Alexander resided at the Milton of Chapelaroch where his wife is recorded as having died. Alexander is recorded in Stewarts of the South as having resided at the Milton of Cubail-Larach in Drymen. Cubail-Larach and Chapelaroch are certainly the same place with the latter most likely being an Anglo-corruption of the earlier Gaelic name. Alexander's name is wrongly given in Stewarts of the South as "Andrew". He is recorded as being firstly a weaver, like his father, and latterly a miller at Cubail-Larach. He is recorded as being unmarried at the time of Stewarts of the South (ca. 1820) which is consistent with his later marriage to Agnes McAlpine in 1830. | Stewart, Alexander (I14848)
|
| 1155 | Alexander's marriage to Sarah MacGregor is recorded on 22 MAR 1787 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland and 25 MAR 1787 in Glasgow, Lanark, Scotland. This would be consistent with the account given by Mrs. Stewart of Milton that Alexander's family came from Strone in Callander and that two of his sons, John and Alexander were both lawyers in Glasgow. No birth record has been found for any of Alexander's sons in Callander. It's possible they were born in Glasgow. | MacGregor, Sarah (I9171)
|
| 1156 | Alexander's middle name is frequently rendered incorrectly in online genealogies as "MACLAIN." (The middle letter is a capital 'i' not a lowercase 'L'.) His middle name is his patronymic, "mac Iain" (son of John). Alexander was the founder of the Stewarts of Annat. He is believed to be the Alexander "M'ean" (mac Iain, or "son of John") referred to in the following documents. His son Walter's byname, "Meandowie" (son/descendant of Iain Dubh, or "son/descendant of Black John") suggests that Alexander's father was known as John Dubh. 1623 - Alexander S. alias M'ean. John, Archibald, and Andrew, his sons. Walter M'eandowie alias Stewart (Alexander mac Iain Stewart, (latterly) 1st of Annat, and his sons, John Stewart, future 2nd of Annat, Archibald Stewart, ancestor of Glassingall, Andrew Stewart, latterly in Ardcheanochdan, and Walter Mceandowie Stewart, in Glenfinglas.) (His sons) 1639 John, Alaster, and Walter Stewarts in Glen. Vol. III p.48, tenants to the Earl of Moray Duncan Stewart (1739) says: "Alexander, who purchased the lands of Annat from James Muschet of Burnbank anno 1621. He married ___ MacNab, daughter to Aucharn, by whom he had John, Walter, Andrew and James. He had likewise Archibald, great-grandfather to Alexander Stewart of Glassingall, writer in Stirling." Duncan Stewart accounts for the family of Annat as a separate branch from the Stewarts of Ardvorlich, whereas Stewarts of the South accounts for them as a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich. As the Annat family descends from a brother of Alexander Stewart, 1st of Ardvorlich, rather than a son, then Duncan Stewart's accounting is preferred. We account for the Stewarts of Annat as a fourth principal family, alongside the Stewarts of Ardvorlich, Glenbuckie, and Gartnafuaran. Sometime around 1620, the Annat family complained to James Beag Stewart, 2nd of Ardvorlich, after he received a beneficial tack of Glenfinglas and portioned it among the principal branches of the Baldorran Stewarts, because he left out the Annat family. The dating makes it likely that it was Alexander Stewart, 1st of Annat, who complained about being left out of the Glenfinglas tack. The Annat family were then given a one-eighth share of Glenfinglas, which, from later accountings, would appear to have been the property of Auchnahard in Glenfinglas. It is not recorded who from Annat initially resided in Auchnahard, however since the Ardvorlich History claims that the later John Buidhe Mor was preceded by "a John or two" then it seems likely that the Auchnahard portion probably went first to John Stewart, future 2nd Laird of Annat, while Alexander was still alive. It seems likely that John, future 2nd of Annat, likely held Auchnahard until his father's death, at which point he would have inherited the principal estate of Annat, to become John Stewart, 2nd of Annat, which would be when his natural son, John Buidhe Mor probably took possession of the tack in Glenfinglas. Alexander's gravestone is amazingly still intact. According to Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions, it reads: "(foot stone. Marginal.) Hier lyes the richt worthiey and honourabel Alexander STEWART of Annet died 14 JAN 1647, age 76. shield with horse.)" | Stewart, Alexander mac Iain Dubh in Glen Finglas 2nd of Portnellan and 1st of Annat (I15072)
|
| 1157 | Alexander's name is not certain. It is derived from the fact that both his sons had eldest sons named Alexander. Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions shows a family of Fergusons in Stronvar back to 1700 commencing with a John Ferguson. | Ferguson, Alexander? (I23057)
|
| 1158 | Alexander's name is not known for sure. He is a descendant of the Stewarts of Gartnafuaran VI Branch - Stewarts of Coille Mor (on Loch Lomond). The name "Alexander" is suggested by onomastics only. He is suggested as the father of Andrew and James, but this is not verified. Andrew and James, are not shown in Stewarts of the South as brothers. However the fact that the Mill of Cubail-Larach appears to have passed from James to Andrew after James's son moved to Buchanan would suggest that James and Andrew were closely related. The simplest relationship of brothers is presently preferred, however this relationship is not verified. As Andrew had only one known son, namely Alexander, it is suggested that Andrew's (and James') father was named Alexander, however, this too is not verified. | Stewart, Alexander? (I14957)
|
| 1159 | Alexander, advocate, LL.D., Professor of Law, Univ. of Glasgow, 1887-1905. | Moody-Stuart, Dr. Alexander (I11426)
|
| 1160 | Alfred served as a U.S. Senator for Georgia. He is shown in 1850 as being the proprietor of an estate valued at $18,000 (approx. $7M in 2009). He is shown with his son Alfred. | Cuthbert, Senator Alfred (I3251)
|

Children were: EDWYN, EDYTHA . | Mercia, Alfgar of (I11242)
|
| 1162 | Alice and her husband John Groves did not emigrate with her siblings and remained in England, contrary to family records preserved by her neice, Harriet Joned (Brown). Harriet also indicated that the Groves had five children, however records have only been found of two. | Liptrot, Alice Anne (I8902)
|
| 1163 | Alice Maud Angus died young at the age of 16. | Angus, Alice Maud (I23373)
|
| 1164 | Alick served with the Wiltshire Regiment, 1st Battalion. He was killed in action in 1914 in Bethune, France. Recorded as the husband of Alice Edith Prangley. | Prangley, Private Alexander Henry (I12436)
|
| 1165 | All ancestors of this John Home are unproven. | Home, Sir John (I7910)
|
| 1166 | All ancestors of this line from here back should be considered legendary. | Temple, Unknown (I19310)
|
| 1167 | All children of Abraham were baptized at St. Cuthbert's Church, Allendale, Northumberland, England. | Dawson, Abraham (I3831)
|
| 1168 | All Saints Church, Norfolk Square | Family F4818
|
| 1169 | All sources except MacGregor indicate that James MacRory (or MacRuari) was the son of Angus, son of Somerled of the Isles. MacGregor follows the patronymic and indicates that James was the son of Roderick (synonym for Ruari), but does not give Ruari's origin. All other sources show the relationship as presented here with James being the son of Angus with no explanation for the patronym. Since Angus' brother was named Ruari/Roderick and his descendants became known as MacRuari/MacRory, it may be that James took the name of his uncle as a means of clan association. It may also be that there is a generation missing and perhaps James was the son of Ruari, son of Angus, son of Somerled. What is known is that the Lords of the Isles were descended in some manner from Somerled. No satisfactory explanation yet exists for the mystery of James MacRory. | MacRory, James Lord of Bute and Arran (I9352)
|
| 1170 | All the children shown here could also be children of John Prangley, son of Robert. | Prangley, John (I12811)
|
| 1171 | Allan Cameron of Lundavra was a witness for the defense in the trial of James Stewart of the Glen in the case of the Appin Murder. | Cameron, Lt. Allan of Lundavra (I21451)
|
| 1172 | Allan is described as "begotten in fornication" in his baptism record in the Callander parish register. Allan is recorded in Stewarts of the South as being a grandson of Allan Stewart in Doune by his natural son (Robert). | Stewart, Allan (I14995)
|
| 1173 | Allan is found in 1891 resresiding in Galt, teamster with his wife Jennie b 1866 in Ontario. Allan has not been found in 1901. In 1911 he was residing at 1436 Graveley, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, with his unmarried daughter Mamie, but without his wife. He is shown as married, not widowed, so it's possible that Jennie was away. Allan was working as a manager at an oil company in 1911. | Stewart, Allan James (I14982)
|
| 1174 | Allan is listed in the Invernahyle genealogy in The Scottish Journal. No further information is given. | Stewart, Allan (I15000)
|
| 1175 | Allan is recorded as the third son of Duncan Stewart of Appin. He died without children. | Stewart, Allan Younger of Appin (I14967)
|
| 1176 | Allan was a farmer in Bellflower, Illinois, USA. | McIntyre, Allan (I10127)
|
| 1177 | Allan was the illegitmate child of James Stewart in Wester Ardviech and Euphemia McGregor in Easter Glentarken. 1787 Augt 22nd Jas Stewart in W. Ardveich & Euphan McGrigor had their son born in uncleanness Bapt this day named Allan. (Comrie OPR) The Kirk Session minutes for Comrie Parish record the following: "Comrie 10th Febry 1788 James Stewart in Ardveich guilty of adultery with Euphan McGregor in Ester Glentarkin." The name "Allan" is an unusual choice for the baby's name. The name does not occur in either parent's family. It's possible that he could have been named after the infamous Allan Breck Stewart who was known to frequent the area and was allied with the Stewarts of Balquhidder. Baby Allan disappears from records after his birth and is presumed to have died in childhood. | Stewart, Allan (I25145)
|
| 1178 | Allan's family is not listed with him in the 1901 census. | Stuart, Lt. Allan Kilbee (I18639)
|
| 1179 | Almeda was born in 1887 in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada. In 1901 she moved with her family to Teeswater, Bruce, Ontario, Canada where she was a student. In 1906, when Almeda was just 18 years old, her mother died, leaving a family of young children to raise. Her father never remarried. Almeda presumably stepped in to help raise the children. She never married and was never employed outside the house. She remained living with her father for the rest of his life. In 1911 and 1921, Almeda was residing in Teeswater, Bruce, Ontario, Canada with her father. She was not employed. By 1935, Almeda was back in Hamilton, residing at 220 Hunter Street East with her widowed father and brother Samuel. Brother Charles joined them sometime shorly after. In 1937, her brother Samuel died tragically, possibly by suicide. In 1941 her brother Charles, who was living with her, died by suicide. No record has been found for her death or burial. | Stewart, Almeda Elizabeth (I14986)

| 1186 | Although Portisland (Portanealan) is located in Callander parish, Thomas was baptized in Port of Menteith. | Stewart, Thomas (I18349)
|
| 1187 | Although Walter's father is recorded as a bachelor, the following entry from Mitchell's MIs from Brig O Turk Cemetery, almost certainly applies to this family: 17 foot stone next to 16, by John STEWART [illegible], father Walter STEWART, late tenant of Stroan, born JUL 1811, died 1869. No corresponding baptismal record has been found for Walter. | Stewart, Walter (I18409)

|
| 1190 | An interesting trait with the Tasker family is that, at least for this generation, it appears that everyone was referred to by a reduction of their middle name. Lawrence Randolph became "Dolph". Dolph was reputed to be an excellent violinist and an excellent auto mechanic. He used his musical ear to assist him in his work. It is claimed that he could diagnose any automotive problem within five minutes just by listening to the sound of the car. Dolph died prematurely of either a heart attack or cancer. | Tasker, Lawrence Randolph (I19021)
|
| 1191 | An old photo indicates that Anne Lawson/Dawson was born in a stone house called "Whitely Shield". The photo gives no indication of where "Whitely Shield" is. Yet another photo indicates they lived "12 miles from Hexham Abbey". Whitely Shield has now been identified as an ancient fortified Bastle House near Allendale, about a dozen miles from Hexham Abbey. | Dawson, Annie (I3847)
|
| 1192 | An old photo indicates that, Frances lived in Seattle, England, near Yorkshire. Another photo indicates they lived "12 miles from Hexham Abbey" on a farm they called "Whitley Shield". Whitley Shield appears to have been in or near Allendale which is about 12 miles southwest of Hexham. Sometime between 1891 and 1901 Frances' birth family moved to Yorkshire, but Frances either returned to Northumberland or never went with her family to Yorkshire. In the 1901 census Luke, Annie and Emma are found in Fearby, Yorkshire while Frances is found working as a domestic servant back in Northumberland. Frances, her sister Jean, and her mother Anne, all immigrated to Canada sometime after the death of her father Luke. According Frances' daughter, Win, Frances was an adventure seeker who had always been eager to come to the New World, but her father Luke had no interest in emigrating. So almost immediately after Luke's death Frances and her sister Jean immigrated to Canada. I believe their mother Anne followed after. A memorial stained glass window for Frances was placed in Merlin United Church. | Bell, Frances (I915)

| 1193 | An online tree mistakenly shows this Jane Brown marrying in Holyoke, Mass, USA to a Samuel Brown. That Jane's parents do not match. But Samuel comes from Portadown. | Brown, Jane (I21034)
|
| 1194 | An OPR record for a Mary Sherewood, born 22 DEC 1725 in Kirby In Cleveland, Yorkshire, England, seems close enough to be a possible transcription error, and could be a double entry for this same birth. Other LDS member submissions show her born in Brighton and Broughton, Yorkshire. | Sherwood, Mary (I14279)

| 1195 | Anarawd won a victory over King Aethelred II of Mercia, and then came under pressure from Viking raids. He turned to King Alfred the Great of Wessex for help, but was forced to recognize Alfred as overlord. | Rhodri, Anarawd ap (I13551)
