| 1201 | Agnes Stewart Browne (b. 1868) married Dugald Buchanan Johnston (1861-1935). I haven’t found out if he connects to our Buchanans. At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised. Dugald was a solicitor with chronic money problems. After he passed away, Agnes and her two children, Stewart Browne Johnston (b. 1892) and Evelyn Roy Johnston (b. 1895-ish) are found in Needham, Norfolk Co, Massachusetts. Stewart worked for (drum roll please) the Boston office of the New York Life Insurance company, and is noted in an industry journal as having been an American Corporal during WWI. https://geneal4real.wordpress.com/2014/11/22/john-browne-and-agnes-stewart-revisited/ | Browne, Agnes Stewart (I24455)

| 1202 | Agnes Stewart has not been found in 1871. In 1881, at age 20, Agnes Stewart was residing in Guelph, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, with her parents and younger siblings. She was employed as a school mistress (teacher). In the 1883 Guelph City Directory, Agnes C Stewart was residing at 332 Woolwich in Guelph, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, employed as a teacher. Residing with her was her brother, Alexander W. Stewart, a clerk. In 1890, Agnes Stewart married in Guelph, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, to William Thompson Rutherford. He had a son, Albert, age 10, from a previous marriage. In 1891, at age 29, Agnes Rutherford was residing in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, with her husband and their two children. In 1901, at age 39, Agnes C Rutherford was residing in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, with her husband and their children. "Agnes Celine Stewart was named after her father's mother, Agnes Walker, or his sister Agnes. She probably grew up in Guelph and was a teacher there (according to 1882-83 Vernon Directory). After her husband's death in Winnipeg, Agnes took Gerald back to Guelph where they lived from 1904 to 1907 close to their relatives. They went on several trips to Scotland and on one they visited an "aunt" (possibly Robert's sister Margaret Stewart) in Aberdeen, which is where Gerald's grandfather clock came from. Gerald and his mother returned to Winnipeg in 1908 and lived in an apartment near the Winnipeg Winter Club, while Gerald began his study of law. Agnes died about 1909 and is buried in St. John's church cemetery." (descendant Malcolm Sissons) | Stewart, Agnes Celine (I14410)

| 1203 | Agnes Stewart is shown in the Kilmadock OPR as born in 1678 in Ballachallan. Stewarts of the South records that Walter Stewart in Brig O' Turk had a son John who married a daughter of Stewart of Ballachallan, but no such daughter can be found. However Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions shows Walter's wife, Agnes, as a near exact match for a daughter of Duncan Stewart, 1st of Ballachallan. It is therefore suggested that Stewarts of the South was off by one generation and that it was actually Walter who married a Stewart of Ballachallan. | Stewart, Agnes in Ballachallan (I14424)

| 1204 | Agnes Stewart was born 12 Apr 1719 in Gartmore, Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, as a daughter of James Stewart and Mary Watson.

"July 28 1729, James Stewart and Mary Watson in Lead had a child baptized called Agnes." (Drymen Parish Register) On 5 Jan 1752, Agnes Stewart married in Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland to John McFarlane from Strathcassil. "John McFarlane in Cowell (sic, Cassel) in the Parish of Buchanan and Agnes Stewart, daughter to the Deceased James Stewart in Wester Gartfarran in this parish listed etc." (Drymen Parish Register) They had five recorded children, none of whom were named James, which breaks the traditional naming pattern, suggesting that Agnes Stewart may have been previously married. (There is a contemporary John McFarlane and Agnes McFarlane in Buchanan having children at the same time. There is a risk of conflating the two families.) --- Possible prior marriage: STEWART, ANNA and WILLIAM MCFARLAN 23/12/1742 1. MCFARLAN, KATHRINE, dtr of WILLIAM MCFARLAN/ANNA STEWART, 19/04/1746 2.

| 1222 | Agnes was a nun. She wrote the following letters to a relative that included some family history references. The pagination of the letters is not correct. --- Agnes Letter 1 March 13th 1966. Sunday...... BUCKHURST 1624 CHIGWELL CONVENT, WOODFORD BRIDGE, WOODFORDER GREEN, ESSEX. My very dear Marie (& Tom(my)! I'm taking your lovely letter (2/3/66) page by page, each page full of interest and belie? (How do you spell "Belie with an 'ing'? See dictionary (belying!) - - and belying your moon that your education didn't prepare you for life! Your letter disproved that! I'm taking it point by point - horribly methodically! because I've some things I can tell you - your dear mother was not muddled, - Well, yes, The Moses picture by my great uncle, John Rogers here hangs in "The Moses Room" - used to be the Peer's Robing Room, and I think the Daniel picture (both murals) is in the same room right opposite the "Moses" mural. About 8 years ago I saw it, but my mind does get a little confused, whether or not both are in "The Moses Room" (They are, of course) I claimed relationships with the artists and was at once admitted privately. Now about the Indian, - mother too, was correct. You are evidently, like Ella, a descendant of artists. 1.2 more reasonably, please God, after I Tuesday, 3 p.m., 17/5/66, when "to be or not to be," - op. for Cataract! has been determined! You see by this, that I can see perfectly well to write, etc., so why worry, - Aunt Lottie & Ella & my Superior all recommend "Let well alone." Do say a nice prayer for me at that critical hour that we'll do what is best! I do hope, dear, you keep "friends" with our best Friend in the Tiny Tabernacle are you near Him or isolated!? My favorite photos are of your own Wedding Group on the Church doorstep, and the other of Mum & Dad's Golden Jubilee! Do you remember picking me up at Hounslow Station to be at the lovely family celebration! Dear Mum my own dear Rosa gone to God, since, R.I.P., Dad getting over his loneliness and in the devoted hands of family, David & Win but poor Win has a sorry day to day task to help poor Ernie. Thank God for Ron! 1.3 I spent last Friday (week) 6th, - with Aunt Lottie & Ella at Ella's, and we talked and talked, fortified by fine fire and nice dinner, etc. that dear Ella has seen to before she off "to work!" She is now away for a week or two with her friend Ethel on a Sketching party! Lottie went on to Hounslow where she may still be, but I don’t know - she may be back at Southbourne for Nicky’s sake who is still there on long leave before becoming classes "Adult." Speaking of "Sketching" takes me back to your dear letter at my elbow. The mural Moses' is in what is now called The Moses Room, formerly, The Peers' Robing Room. Date? I guess in the 18 seventies, nearer 1870! Your M.P. could easily find out. Being a 'Mural' it is a fixture. Do you ever come to London? If so, you should be allowed to see it as I did, on the claim of relationships to J.R. Herbert, R.A. the artist 1.4 His wife was née, Rezia Dedman, of 4 Wilham, Essex, sister of my grandma, Mrs George Stewart, née Eliza Dedman, Sister of Rezia. Is that all clear. Their daughter, Agnes Herbert, was my godmother hence my Christian name. Thereby hangs a tale, too long to attempt here! As to my being, an artist, I had little real talent, only what I got as a pupil of dear grandpa's School of Art, Eastbourne. By the way, re: "unconsecrated ground" this is scarcely true, - there was no question of it! Ocklynge Cemetery, Eastbourne had its own Catholic section, - all our dear ones lie grouped in that dear spot, - a student priest. near "us" - old friends all round. So that's that! It was a beautiful funeral, my two brothers and I were there. Grandma then went (her own Longing!) to Colchester to her Brother-in-Laws, Major John Stewart, where she died 6 weeks later, and was brought back of old memories unite us, dear Marie & me! But I'm sure I've put your mind at rest on 1.5 that score! And now on to poor Winnie, - indeed, yes, - do get her over to your lovely home as and when!! Ron is amazingly helpful and reliable, - no anxiety either when Dad has got David & Dorrie close by! What a grand united family they all are, thank God! Only how grand it would be if we were all nearer one another! Can you imagine popping in to "the Convent" to see Auntie Agnes ever SO often, etc, etc. Certainly, we are too scattered SO far as distance is concerned! Now is there any other point? You have reached page 8, - let me not be beaten! You are suggesting overproduction and overwork in your lovely garden! Thank God, Tom is SO, - such a dear, - domesticated & home-loving! I cant see why you should renovate antiques! Latin uncertain, - have you a good dictionary? But I love your birds & 1.6 I hope the chiff-chaffs will come again! How dear Winnie would love your bird family! I must confess I had to ask the Convent gardener at the voice of a happy pair in the tree overhead is that a Blackbird or a Thrush!? Thrushe, said he! All I know is Willy Wagtail on the lawn and the sparrows on my window ledge, and an occasional Cow, Cow in near by Epping Forest Now I'll leave you the honour of your Epps. dears! Don't worry about me & my cataract, I expect the "very special specialist" will Say to me on Tuesday, My dear wonderful exceptional vitality & sight, etc." You're OK. But you'll hear all about it when I know family who, I'm told, newer write "!!" In the Sacred Hearts of Jesus Mary - Sr. M. Gertrude Auntie Agnes X X 2.1? May the Sacred Hearts of Jesus Mary be everywhere loved! Chigwell Convent Woodford Bridge Essex May 15th, 1966. My very dear Marie & Tommy! Congratulations on the lovely Silver Jubilee you had - though I was rather jealous of Tom (Tommy is nicer!) having family, and you hadn't, - but all the same it was very nice, and Mr. & Mrs XYZ Thompson look like excellent Company! Captain Billy and Greta, too, near "neighbours would have further ornamented the happy group!!" Well, well! I'm gradually learning at 85 3/4 yrs, that folk know their own business better than "looking - on folk" who should learn to mind x x - iness!!? What a queer mood Auntie is in - NO Only thoughts as they flash through the wandering, wondering mind - forgive, dearest, where necessary! I'll write 2.2 I'm sure you'll make a good job of the "finishing". I know the picture very well and I'm glad you have it, of family interest. Uncle Herbert married Grandma Stewart's sister Eastbourne grandma with whom your dear mother and I lived a long time. Have you seen any of Ella's pictures? She is very keen and successful, and shares with her friend Ethel her lessons and holidays. both do some beautiful work. Now about your dear father, - how I wish he would accept your invitation, - a grand opportunity to distract him from his loss - of course, he is lonely after such a long life of devoted care, one of the other shared - so faithfully thank God. How I'd have loved to be at dear Rosa's Requiem, but I am not able to get about out of doors now; I was grateful to dear Rev Mother and her companion who went to represent me. They told me how perfect it was, and I had a nice letter from Dear Charlie (your father) saying how it comforted him. How I d love to have met you all again! However, I think of you all every day and pray for you. Dear Aunt Lottie went back so quickly to Bournemouth for the sake of Pym & Nicky and won't be up again until Easter I suppose. We don’t write to each other during Lent. Now I must explain why I delayed so long answering your letter. I wrote to Winnie when I wrote to you to sympathize with her about | Stewart, Agnes Mary (I14428)

| 1234 | Alan inherited the office of Steward of the King of Scots from his father. Alan served as Steward (dapifer) to William the Lion, King of Scots. Alan allegedly accompanied Richard the Lionheart of England on the Third Crusade, from which he returned to Scotland in July 1191. None of the references, however, can be traced back to the period. Alan became a patron of the Knights Templar and is responsible for expanding Templar influence in Scotland. There is no evidence, however, that he joined the Order before his death. Alan seems to have been a less active steward than his father. (Wikipedia) Wikipedia suggests that it was during Alan's lifetime that his family acquired the Isle of Bute and that he was possibly responsible for the erection of Rothesay Castle on the island. However, it seems more likely that the marriage of his son Walter to Jean nighan Angus, Heiress of Bute and Arran is a more plausible explanation for the acquisition of Bute into the family holdings. | Fitz-Walter, Alan Steward to the King of Scots (I5783)
|
| 1235 | Alan's father, Flaad (rendered in numerous ways, including Flaald and Flathald), was a son (or possibly a brother) of Alain, dapifer to the Ancient Diocese of Dol, with its see at Dol-de-Bretagne, who had taken part in the First Crusade in 1097. [Wikipedia] Flaad is named as a younger brother of Alan of Dol in documents from the Abbey of St. Florent in 1080. Flaad and his son Alan had come to the favourable notice of King Henry I of England (son of William the Conqueror) who, soon after his accession, brought Flaad and Alan to England. Henry had been besieged in Mont St Michel during his struggle with his brothers,[1] an event which probably occurred in 1091. He is known to have recruited Breton troops at that time and, after his surrender, left the scene via the adjoining regions of Brittany, where Dol is situated. This is a likely explanation for the Bretons in the military retinue he brought to England after the death of William Rufus. [Wikipedia] | Dol, Flaad of (I5100)

| 1238 | Albert Andriessen, or Albert Andriessen Bradt [Bratt] was one of the earliest Norwegian settlers in New Netherland. He came from Fredrikstad, a town at the mouth of the Glommen, the largest river in Norway. In the early records he is often called Albert de Noorman (the Norwegian). After 1670 he became known as Albert Andriesz Bradt. Whether he was related to the Bratts of Norwegian nobility, can not be ascertained. The Bratt family lived in Bergen, Norway, before the early part of the fifteenth century, when it moved to the northern part of Gudbrandsdalen. It had a coat of arms until about the middle of the sixteenth century. Since that time the Bratts belong to the Norwegian peasantry. They have a number of large farms in Gudbrandsdalen, Hedemarken, Toten, and Land.' In the state of New York there are many families of the name of Bradt, descendants of the pioneer from Fredrikstad. The name of Albert Andriessen occurs for the first time in a document bearing the date August 26, 1636, an agreement between him and two others on the one hand, and the patroon of the colony of Rensselaerswyck, Kiliaen van Rensselaer, on the other. The agreement was made and signed in Amsterdam. It states that Andriessen was a tobacco planter. He may have learnt the cultivating of tobacco in Holland, where tobacco was raised as early as 1616. Albert sailed, accompanied by his wife, Annetje Barents of "Rolmers," and as it would seem by two children, October 8, 1636, on the "Rensselaerswyck," which arrived at New Amsterdam March 4, 1637. On this voyage, which was very stormy, his wife gave birth to a son, who received the name of Storm and who in later records is frequently called Storm from the Sea. Inasmuch as there were eight children born to Andriessen and his wife, Storm being the third, two of their children, Barent and Eva, were likely with their parents on this voyage. Five of their children were born in the new world: Engeltje, Gisseltje, Andries, Jan and Dirck. Andriessen and his partners were to operate a mill. But not long after his arrival he took the liberty of dissolving partnership and established himself as a tobacco planter. | Bradt, Albert Andriesz (I1240)

| 1239 | Albert Angus was born in 1897 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. In 1901, at age 3, Albert Angus was residing at 6 Albion Street in Bulk Ward, Lancaster, Lancashire, England with his parents and siblings. In 1911, at age 13, Albert Angus was residing at 6 Albion Street in Bulk Ward, Lancaster, Lancashire, England with his parents and siblings. He was a student. On 26 May 1923, at age 25, Albert Angus arrived at Quebec City, Quebec, Canada, on the ship Montcalm. He was bound for Toronto, York, Ontario, Canada to stay with his brother John Angus. His closest relative was his father Charles Angus in Openshaw, Manchester, Lancashire, England. By 1925 Albert Angus was in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada where he had a daughter, Beatrice, by an unknown woman. In 1928, Albert Angus married in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada to Doris Calvert.

The deceased was the son of James Stewart, who came to Canada in 1830 from Perthshire, bringing his wife and two young sons, Alexander and John. They settled on what of later years has been known as the Farquharson farm on the creek south of the town, and here the other members of the family, the late Donald, Robert (of Bromley), James (of Pembroke), Catherin (now Mrs. James Ward), Margaret (now Mrs. George Eady Jr.), Mary (now Mrs. Reid of Grattan), and Margery (now Mrs. McVean of Pembroke), were born. Alexander remained farming with his father till he was 21 years of age, when he was married to Elizabeth McLaren, daughter of the late Jas. McLaren, daughter of the late Jas. McLaren, and sister of Mr. Robert McLaren; and the young couple thereupon started life as pioneer farmers on the 3rd Line of Horton, north of the Bonnechere, which farm has been the homestead for over half a century. There the young couple and their growing family did the hard work of pioneers, but prospered withal. Mr. Stewart at times did duty as Councillor and member of School Board, and years ago was entrusted with the work of superintending the government expenditure on the Pinnacle Road, and it was so well done as to be a matter of remark for years. He was also an elder of the Presbyterian congregation for a long period. He was the only elder of late years still acting who was an elder when Rev. Dr. Campbell came to the congregation over thirty years ago. He was all that an elder should be, thoughtful and faithful in the work of his church, and living a life of probity that well accorded with his office. His interest in Christian work was further shown by his zeal in conducting a Sunday School in the summer months in the school-house adjoining his farm. Mrs. Stewart died 19 years ago; and two children predeceased her, (Catherine and Alexander). There are living five sons and three daughters: Margaret, (Mrs. Wm. Logan); James of California; Robert of Mattawa; Mary, Christina, and John at home; Donald of Minnesota; and Duncan of Prince Albert, N.W.T. From his length of residence, larger family connection, and the esteem in which he was held as a citizen and neighbour, his funeral on Monday afternoon was one of the largest ever seen in the neighbourhood. The services were conducted by Rev. John Hay, B.D. The pall-bearers were his fellow elders of St. Andrew’s congregation - James Leitch, James Stewart, Dr. Mann, W.M. Dickson, P. Dougall and James Ward. A Memorial Service will be held on Sunday morning (3rd Aug.) in St. Andrew’s church. Died. Stewart - In Horton, on Friday, July 25th, 1902, Alexander Stewart, aged 74 years. The family slept their first night in Renfew in the Airth house. This was about the year 1830." (The Story of Renfrew - From the Coming of the First Settlers About 1820 by W. E. Smallfield and Rev. Robert Campbell, D.Sc. Renfrew, Smallfield and Son, 1919) | Stewart, Alexander (I14497)

| 1245 | Alexander is not named in the family bible and is presumed to have died in infancy. The following is also from the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856):: "Certified copy of what is written in the family bible Lendrick 1756 that I bought this [presumably referring to the bible] for 4 pounds Scots money out of Glasgow written and signed by me Archibald Stewart.

| 1247 | Alexander Brown is mentioned in Ruth Brown's family tree where he is shown as one of four sons of an unknown Brown who came from Berks County, Pennsylvania, USA to Kingston, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA in 1786. The four sons are named as: George, Alexander, James and William. No further information is given about Alexander. Plumb's 1885 History of Hanover Township, identifies Alexander Brown as a son of Alexander Brown and Mary Tyler. He is said to have "went away", or moved away from Luzerne County. Nothing further is known of his later whereabouts or his descendants. Alexander's date of birth is merely estimated based on the above references in conjunction with the birth dates of those of his siblings which can be confirmed. Plumb lists Alexander as the first child, but the order of children in Plumb has been shown to disagree with confirmable birth dates, thus it cannot be reliably inferred from Plumb that Alexander was in fact the first born. Family in Wilkes-Barre by 1884 had lost track of Alexander. There is an Alexander Brown buried in the cemetery at Fort Kingston, Luzerne County, which could be this Alexander. Various unsourced trees at Ancestty give Alexander's vitals as: Alexander Brown BIRTH ABT 1784 • Lancaster Co.

| 1248 | Alexander Brown was the son of another Alexander Brown who came from Northern Ireland and settled in Reading, Berks County (formerly Lancaster County), Pennsylvania, USA. This Alexander was probably born in Berks County (though at the time it was still Lancaster County) and came with his wife and children to the Wyoming Valley in 1786 where he settled in Kingston, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA. Henry Blackman Plumb's 1885 History of Hanover Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA, provides a five-generation family tree for this family through Alexander's son, William Brown. The full tree can be found here: http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~culbert/Hanover/brown.htm Plumb shows the first two generations as: Alexander Brown was born in Lancaster* County, Pa.; emigrated to Kingston, Luzerne County, with his family; married Mary Tyler. They had: -- Alexander Brown, - went away. John Brown, - went away. George Brown, - went away. James Brown, - went to Wayne County, Pa. (sic) William Brown, m. Sarah Lewis. Sarah Brown, m. Gideon Underwood. Jane Brown, m. Jesse Lee. In 1973 Ruth Brown of Scranton, since deceased, informed Linda Brown (Homer's granddaughter and daughter of Clarence L. and Dorothy Brown) that she believed Alexander came from what is now Berks County, or that portion of Lancaster Co. now in Berks. Ruth Brown presents the family as follows: Alexander Brown came from Northern Ireland and settled in Reading, Penna. -- Brown, his son came to Wyoming Valley in 1786 -- Brown had four sons - George, Alexander, James, and William William Brown Born 1770 married Sarah Lewis born 1778, about 1794. Their Children: William Brown Jr: born June 1, 1797 Elizabeth, died in infancy Wm. Brown Sr. died May 1797 Sarah Lewis-Brown married Archibald Smiley in 1805. Their Children: (2) John died 8 yrs old., (1) Samuel, (3) Archibald, (4) Lewis We interpret "-- Brown" in lines 2 & 3 to refer to the same person, and thus interpret the two lines to read: "-- Brown, his son, came to Wyoming Valley in 1786 [and] had four sons - George, Alexander, James, and William." We know from Plumb that "-- Brown" is this Alexander Brown who married Mary Tyler. On 20 JAN 1794 Alexander Brown and Thomas Wigdon jointly purchased lots 25 and 26 in Braintrim Township, known as Mounts Bottom from Joel Whitcomb for 24 pounds to be paid in the form of 20 dollars in store goods on demand, 100 of barr iron, and the residue in cash. It is not known if the Alexander Brown in question is this Alexander Brown, but no other Alexander Brown has been identified. On 27 MAR 1794 Alexander Brown of Wilkes-Barre, purchased a 3 acre house lot in Kingston for 60 pounds from Oliver Parrish. The legal description was Kingston house lot 35 bounded Northerly on the lands of Oliphalet Follet, deceased, Eastwardly on the River Susquehanna. It is not known if the Alexander Brown in question is this Alexander Brown, but no other Alexander Brown has been identified. The 1796 Tax Rolls for Kingston Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA, list Alexander Brown and his son William Brown among the 98 persons on the tax rolls for Kingston. (Bradsby's 1893 History of Luzerne County) A Letter of Administration for the estate of the late Alexander Brown, dated 26 AUG 1796, who died intestate, lists Elizabeth and John Brown as Administrators and William Brown as Surety. ---------------------------------------------------- Another, less likely possibility exists for the father of this Alexander Brown, as Ruth Brown's 1973 family history is the only evidence we have that this Alexander was the son of an Alexander. There was another Alexander Brown, son of Colin Brown, in the area whose family names match this Alexander. It could be a coincidence, or it could be that Ruth Brown's tree is in error. Without sufficient evidence we cannot be certain. A potential connection is inferred from the following: Alexander is mentioned in the will of Colin Brown as his oldest surviving son. James, another son, was younger. Colin and James and Alexander were members of Rev. Cuthbertson's church. Among others, Rev. Cuthbertson baptised a son Alexander to James and a daughter Elizabeth to Alexander. Our Alexander, should the forgoing Alexander not be one and the same, had an Elizabeth Brown designated as administrator of Alexander's estate. That an Elizabeth Brown, presummably a daughter of our Alexander is named Administrator and the presummed Alexander had a daughter Elizabeth baptised is pretty It good evidence that the 2 Alexanders are the same. Further, their ages tend to coincide based upon approximate age at marriage and death. Dauphin Co. Deed Book E-1, Pg. 109, is purported to record a deed dated 1777 in which an Alexander Brown and wife Jannet Milroy are mentioned. In Deed Book GG, pg. 265, an Alexander Brown and wife Elizabeth of Salisbury Twp. sold land in Salisbury Twp 1 Aug. 1785. In 1973 Ruth Brown of Scranton, since deceased, informed Linda Brown (Homer's granddaughter and daughter of Clarence L. and Dorothy Brown) that she believed Alexander came from what is now Berks County, or that portion of Lancaster Co. now in Berks. According to Ruth the immigrant Brown was named Alexander and that he came from Northern Ireland to settle in Reading. Research what one can in Reading. It seems, by belonging to the Covenentor Church that Colin and/or his older children came from Northern Ireland as most members of the Church were known as Scotch Irish. It was one of the immigrant's sons who came to the Wyoming Valley in 1766. Ruth said he had four sons, George, Alexander, James, and William. Except for John, this list matches the sons listed by Plumb in his History of Hanover, for Alexander. The Register of Rev. Cuthbertson lists the baptisms of the following as children of Alexander Brown: Elizabeth, John, Martha, Mary, and for "A." Brown, Henry. Elizabeth and John Brown are the names of those appointed to administer his estate in 1797. Plumb's History also lists John. He does not mention any of the other children of Alexander that were baptised by Cuthbertson. This may be simply due to the fact that, with the exception of Elizabeth and John, those baptised were the oldest children who presumably were married and living on their own, not following their father in his move to Kingston. --------------------------------- The Brown Family.

| 1249 | Alexander Cuthbert, a harness maker and bailiff for the 3rd District court at Dresden, Kent County, moved to Dresden in 1873 from Glencoe, Ontario. He was born in Elginshire, Scotland (present-day Morayshire) near the village of Forres (note: not "Forrest"), near the north-east coast of Scotland. Alexander emigrated from Scotland in 1856 with his mother and father. The family first settled in London, Ontario where Alexander's mother, Margerie, died in 1865 at 33 years of age. Alexander and his father then moved to Glencoe, and in 1873 (or 74) to Dresden where they finally settled. Alexander would have been 13 years old when his mother died. Alexander studied leather working like his father and grandfather. Initially he apprenticed as a harness maker but he also took up shoe-making as harnesses became less in demand. By 1916 the family appears to have moved to Walkerville, according to son Charles' WWI recruiting document. 004600-78 (Kent Co.)

| 1250 | Alexander D. Stewart was born in 1799 in Ardcheanochdan, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. It is not known what his middle initial stood for, but it is liely Duncan. In 1809, when Alexander was ten years old, he moved with his parents to Kirkline on the Blair Drummond Moss in Kincardine-by-Doune, Perthshire, Scotland. In 1818, his family left Scotland and immigrated to St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. In 1825, Alexander's father, Duncan Stewart is shown residing in a house with 11 occupants: 2 under the age of 6 (Charles 6 and Daniel 3); 2 between 6-14 (John 13 and Peter 9); 2 between 14-18 (Archibald 16 and Jannet 16); 2 males between 18-25 (Alexander and James D); one male over 60 (Duncan 50); one single female between 14-45 (Mary); one married female between 14-45 (unknown); and one married female over 45 (Agnes McGregor). Also residing in Dundee at the time was Robert Stewart with one child under 6, one male 18-25, and one married female between 14-45. Robert is of no known relation to Duncan. The 1831 Godmanchester Statistical Report gives us an informative picture of the progress of the family's development of their farm. It shows Duncan Stewart occupying Lot 60 Range 1 in St. Anicet, Huntingdon. It indicates that he settled in 1818. It also shows his son, Alexander Stewart, as another head of household sharing the same lot, occupying Range 1 & 2. They had 13 acres cleared, 12 acres under cultivation, one house, one barn, one head of family and his wife, 8 males, 2 females, one horse, 14 horned cattle, 6 pigs and 12 sheep. On 1 Dec 1831, Alexander Stewart married Ann McIntosh. "Alexander Stewart of Godmanchester, farmer, and Ann McIntosh of the city of Montreal spinster were after due proclamation of having joined in the Holy Bonds of Matrimony on the first day of December one thousand eight hundred and thirty one by Alex Mathieson, Minr."

In 1842, Duncan Stewart's widow, Agnes McGregor, was residing in Godmanchester (which included St. Anicet) where she is recorded in the census as "Widow Stewart" with 5 inhabitants in her home. Next to her was Alex Stewart with 7 inhabitants, Peter Stewart with 3 inhabitants, and James Stewart with 5 inhabitants. In 1851, at age 54, Alexander Stewart was residing in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada, with his wife Ann McIntosh, age 56, and their children, Duncan 17, Donald 10, Christen 19, Anne 15, Agnes 12, Jane 3, James 1 In 1861, at age 60, Alexander was living in St Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada, with his wife Ann, 50, and children Donald, 15, Jennet, 12.
