151 (The 1841 census shows two children named Duncan. One may be a transcription error or could be a nephew.) Stewart, Duncan (I15829)
 
152 (The exact place of his birth is not given in the OPR.) Duncan is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and did not inherit Lednascridan and thus is presumed to have died as a child. Stewart, Duncan (I15797)
 
153 (The OPR shows Robert's mother's name as Janet Stewart instead of Christian Stewart, but this is an error.)

Robert is described in Stewarts of the South as being "lately in Invercarnaig" and thus he died bef. 1815. He is recorded as having one son, James, a cow feeder in Glasgow. 
Stewart, Robert in Invercarnaig (I18168)
 
154 ** I AM NO LONGER CONFIDENT IN THE ACCOUNTING OF THIS FAMILY AS IT CONNECTS TO STEWARTS OF THE SOUTH **

Duncan is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Duncan Stewart, his [Alexander's] brother, [is a] shepherd in Leadchrich [in the] Braes of Balquhidder. [He has] two sons [who are] minors."

An excellent match for this Duncan has been found in Duncan Stewart, a shepherd in Ledcreich who married Agnes McGregor and had four children, including two sons who would be of minor age at the time that Stewarts of the South was written. No other shepherd in Ledcreich named Duncan Stewart has been found to conflict with this matching. (This family was submitted by Andrew McDonald.)

Duncan Stewart married on 16 JAN 1813 in Balquhidder (both in this parish) to Agnes McGregor. They had the following children:
1. Mary STEWART, bap. 16 JUN 1813 in Culearn of Gartnafuaran.
2. Walter STEWART, bap. 30 APR 1815 in Clachglass of Glenbuckie. (Census and OPR data indicates he married and had children in Aberfoyle parish.)
3. ______ Stewart, bap 9 MAY 1819 in Ledcrich (Matches with the family records of Catherine Stewart, 1818-1910, who married John Buchanan)
4. John STEWART, bap. 20 NOV 1821 in Tulloch.

Between 1821-1825, Duncan and his family moved to Chrachavie west of Loch Vennachar in Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland, where they continued their family.

No corresponding birth record has been found for Duncan Stewart, son of John in Callander or Balquhidder parishes.

History of the Fisher Family by James McIntyre (1904)

James Fisher was born in Glenquaich, Scotland, in the year 1776 and, when a young man, went to Balquidder and was, for many years, a shepherd there. He married in Balquidder a Miss Stewart, one of the family of Stewarts who had, for four generations, been tenants of the Farm of Ballimore. His wife bore him three sons and they were named Duncan, Alexander and John. His wife died, a few years after the birth of John, and the youngest son, John, was taken and raised by his Uncle,
John Stewart, and his Aunts, Katie and Kursty. None of these three Stewarts ever married and he, John Fisher, succeeded them as the tenant of Ballimore. Robert Stewart Fisher, Ballimore, and his Sister, Mrs John Ferguson, West Miggar, Comrie, are the grandson and granddaughter, respectively, of John Fisher.

James Fisher and his two sons, Duncan and Alexander, shortly after the death of his wife, returned to Glenquaich from Balquidder and, several years after, in the year 1833, the three emigrated to Canada and along with them, at the same time, came two nephews, John and Alexander Fisher. James Fisher and his two sons settled and they took up bush lands in North Easthope, near Stratford, Canada. Shortly after their arrival in this country, Alexander, son of James Fisher, took ill with measles and
died, unmarried. James Fisher died in the year 1858 and he was 82 years of age. His son, Duncan, married in Canada Christena NcNaughton, in the year 1839. She was a native of Glenquaich. They had a family of four, one son and three daughters, who are: James Fisher and his sister Jessie, unmarried and now nearly 60 years of age, who live in a pretty cottage they own on St. David Street, Stratford, having given up farming a few years ago, selling their land and stock and now living retired; a sister, Mrs Thomas Hunt, living just outside the limits of the City of Stratford, on a farm they own; a sister, Mrs George Peddie, living in the State of Michigan, who has a family of three sons and four daughters, mostly grown up and some of them married.

James Fisher, Stratford, informs me that he kept up occasional correspondence with his friends in Scotland up to fifteen years ago but, from that date till now, had not hear about or from them. His father, Duncan Fisher, died in 1889, aged 82, and his mother died many years before that. At his father’s death, he sent word to Ballimore but got no reply and he often wondered if the letter ever reached the friends in the
Old Country.

James Fisher and his sister inform me that their uncle, John Fisher of Ballimore, married and had one son named Duncan. John Fisher died when not very old, being accidentally killed by falling off a horse. His son, Duncan, succeeded him as a tenant of Ballimore, when he came of age. He married the worthy lady who is now his widow, living at Ballimore, her maiden name being Stewart, and the issue of this marriage are: Robert Stewart Fisher and Mrs John Ferguson. Duncan Fisher, Ballimore, died about fifteen years ago, when about forty years of age. I have filled in the names of the two youngest to complete the list and Mrs. Fisher, Sr., of Ballimore, will know if the record they give of their friends in Scotland is correct.

John and Alexander Fisher, the nephews of James Fisher who came out with him to Canada in 1833, first settled in Easthope Township, Canada; a few years later, they removed to North Easthope taking up land alongside of many others who, about this time, were coming out from Glenquaich, many of these being relatives of theirs. From between the years 1831 and 1850, between 200 and 300 emigrated from Glenquiach to Canada, most of them settling and taking up bush farms in this Township. John and Alexander Fisher had large families of sons and daughters. Some of their sons and daughters married and have families. One son and one daughter of John and two daughters of Alexander are living and there are a great number of the grandchildren of both living in North Easthope, Stratford, Toronto, Winnipeg, British Columbia, and elsewhere in Canada. One of John’s sons, James Fisher, is an eminent barrister and King’s Counsel, living in Winnipeg. He has been a member of the Provincial Parliament of Manitoba. I am informed that he and his wife were in Scotland twenty-seven years ago and, when there, visited Ballimore. Mrs Fisher, Sr., may have some recollection of this visit. The descendants of the three nephews of James Fisher, being a little farther removed in relationship to the friends in Scotland, I have not considered it necessary to give in as much detail as I have given the parental line but, if desired, it could be furnished.

He was well respected as a public speaker and often took part in worship services as a member of Marshall Memorial United Church in Ancaster, St. Paul's United Church in Paris and Bracebridge United. Art loved to sing and shared in church choir work, as member of the Brant Men of Song and as a songleader at the Pines in Bracebridge.
