| 1601 | Archibald is named in the family bible and thus survived to adulthood, but nothing is known about his adult life. However, he is presumed to have died during the lifetime of his father, otherwise he would would have preceeded his younger brother, Donald, in inheriting the estate of Lendrick. 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. On account of my age and when the year of God I was born 1712 and married in year of God 1737 and Margaret was born in the year of God 1739 and was married in February 1763. So, Isabel was born in August 1741 and Archibald was born in November 1749 and Donald was born about the 1st of August 1757. On account when my father and mother dyed [died], my father dyed the year of God 1740 and was buried in his own spulcher [sepulchre], and my mother dyed the year of God," | Stewart, Archibald (I15269)
|
| 1602 | Archibald is not found with his parents in 1841, however he is found in 1851 residing at Glenogle with his widowed mother and brothers James and Donald. Archibald is not found in 1861 or 1871. He may have died or emigrated. | Stewart, Archibald (I15283)
|
| 1603 | Archibald is not mentioned in Stirnet or The Scottish Journal and may be identical with John. | Stewart, Archibald (I15287)
|
| 1604 | Archibald is shown in the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856): as being a petitioner and the son of Daniel Stewart of Lendrick. According to Buchanan of Trean records Archibald married Elisabeth Buchanan. | Stewart, Archibald 4th of Lendrick (I15270)
|
| 1605 | Archibald is the only son recorded as born to Donald McDondald and Margaret McArthur. Archibald purchased Monachyle sometime in the late 18th century. On his death, Monachyle passed to his son Donald. | McDonald, Archibald of Monachyle (I9878)
|
| 1606 | Archibald is the patriarch of Line 4 of Branch VIII of the Stewarts of Annat in Stewarts of the South. Archibald is mentioned in Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions, buried in Kilmahog: "28 emblems of mortality. 1803. Archibald STEWART, MAY 1791, wife Mary MCFARLAND, 24 MAY 1796, by son Daniel in ---- (illegible)." Archibald is shown as the son of John Stewart in Lendrick in most of the family trees submitted in evidence in the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856). His status as eldest or second son is contested in the trial. (See the notes on his brother, Hugh Stewart, 2nd of Ballacaish, for more information.) Archibald is mentioned by the testimony of Robert Stewart in Buchany in 1852: "[Robert] eclares that he knew Janet Stewart a granddaughter of this John and a daughter of Hugh and he remembers her being a servant to Mr Jaffray at Glassingall, and that she was said to be a cousin (natural) to the Laird of Glassingall that the said John Stewart left his said son Hugh Stewart in the farm of Ballacaush aforesaid, and went to the farm of Lendrick with Archibald another son, whose descendents are still there. That the said John Stewart was married to Isobel Macfarlane a daughter of Hugh Macfarlane of Calliechra at Loch Katrine in the Parish of Callander." 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. "On account of my age and when the year of God I was born 1712 and married in year of God 1737 and Margaret was born in the year of God 1739 and was married in February 1763. So, Isabel was born in August 1741 and Archibald was born in November 1749 and Donald was born about the 1st of August 1757. On account when my father and mother dyed [died], my father dyed the year of God 1740 and was buried in his own spulcher [sepulchre], and my mother dyed the year of God, [The sentence is incomplete and the year is not given.]" It is worth noting that, according to this account, Archibald's first son, John (confirmed by OPR) was born before his parents were married and is not mentioned at all in the family bible and is thus presumed to have died in childhood. Children Alexander, Mary, and Duncan are also not mentioned and are also presumed to have died young. As the OPR indicates 8 children were baptised and only 4 are mentioned in the family bible, this suggests the family experienced an infant mortality rate of 50%! A sad reflection on the difficulty of life in that era. | Stewart, Archibald 2nd of Lendrick (I15277)
|
| 1607 | Archibald Lauder, Cooper, Roslin and Agnes Scott his spouse had a son born April 9th 1842 and baptised July 2 by the Rev. W Brown in presence of the congregation named George. | Lauder, George (I29716)
|
| 1608 | Archibald resided firstly in Cornich, which was a cottage on the Stank estate. It is shown as a ruins on the 1840 OS Map. Archibald's family is described in the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856): in the testimony given by Duncan Stewart in Auchanahard and Upper Duart, son of John Ban Mor Stewart in Auchnahard of the Bains of Glenfingas: "In the presence of John Buchanan one of the Justices of the Peace for Perth compeared Duncan Stewart tenant in Auchnahard Glenfinglas in the Parish of Callander who solemnly declares that he us in the 96th year of age and from his earliest years he has been intimately acquainted with the family of the Stewarts of Lendrick he being related to them. Declares that he remembers distinctly of Archibald Stewart tenants in Lendrick who was the grandfather of Archibald Stewart the present tenants in that farm and he knows that Archibald Stewart first mentioned had a daughter named Isabella who married Dugald McLaren tenant in Cairnich and of this marriage there was [vizt] Archibald McLaren tenant sometimes in Cairnich afterwards in Stank and latterly in Ardchullerie and Margaret married to the deceased Andrew Robertson, merchant in Stirling who still resides there. That Archibald McLaren left a family of whom there still survives Dugald tenant in Easter Dullator, James presently in Australia, Robert tenants in Ardshullerie, Mary and Margaret residing there and Janet residing in Stirling. That he knows that Archibald Stewart in Lendrick first before mentioned was full cousin to Archibald Stewart of Glassingall their fathers having been full brothers and all this he declares to be the truth. Declares further that he knew Hugh Stewart the brother of Archibald first before mentioned who was married to the Declarants Aunt that he always understood and firmly believes that the said Hugh was younger than Archibald aforesaid and this he also declares to be the truth." | McLaren, Archibald in Stank and Ardchullarie (I10254)
|
| 1609 | Archibald Stewart died young prior to the birth of his same-named brother. | Stewart, Archibald (I15256)
|
| 1610 | Archibald Stewart was born 11 Apr 1807 in Edraleachdach on the north shore of Loch Katrine in Callander parish, Perthshire, Scotland, as a younger son of Walter Stewart in Edraleachdach and Elizabeth McDonald. In 1841, at age 30, Archibald Stewart was residing at Monachyle farm in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, with his widowed mother in the home of her brother, Donald McDonald. There is also an Archibald Stewart, age 30, residing at Dullatermore (Wester Dullater), Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, employed as an agriculturalist, who may be this same Archibald Stewart recorded twice in the census. Or it may be is same-aged cousin, Archibald Stewart in Colveny. On 17 Apr 1845, Archibald Stewart married in Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, to Janet Buchanan. The marriage was also registered on 28 Apr 1845 in Callander Parish. In 1851, at age 43, Archibald Stewart was residing at Wester Dullater, Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, with his wife and two young children, Isabella and Archibald Jr. He was employed as a farmer employing two labourers. Archibald Stewart has not been found in 1861 (nor have any members of his family). On 15 Oct 1870, Archibald Stewart's brother, James Stewart in Edraleachdach and Lorrachan died, leaving the farmstead of Edraleachdach to Archibald with conditions: "Trustees shall allow my brother Archibald Stewart and his son Archibald John Stewart to remain upon and manage the farm of Edraleachalach with all its possessions and furnish the trustees information about the management of the farm yearly and for five years. After 5 years, “should my said Trustees be satisfied with the management and behaviour of the said Archibald Stewart and Archibald John Stewart” they were to convey the farm and it’s possessions to them. If the trustees were dissatisfied they were to sell the farm and its contents and “invest the sum of fifteen hundred pounds sterling in their own names for behoof of the said Archibald John Stewart in liferent for his liferent use….” In 1871, at age 54, Archibald Stewart was residing in Edraleachdach, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, with his children. He was a widower and employed as a farmer of 1600 acres (of which 28 were aerable). In 1875, the term of the trustees' conditions for inheriting Edraleachdach would have come due for review. In 1881, at age 73, Archibald Stewart was residing at Monachyle in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland in the home of his cousin Duncan Stewart of Monachyle. Archibald Stewart was employed as a retired farmer. Given that Archibald was found in 1881, ten years after his brother's death, residing again at Monachyle and is shown as a "retired farmer", and is not shown at Edraleachdach, this would seem to indicate that he did not satisfy the conditions of the testament above and that the farms of Edraleachdach and Lorachan were sold by the trustees and dispersed as per above. It must be noted that the trustees would have received £1500* each for their services in the event that Archibald failed to satisfy them of his fulfillment of the conditions. Such a huge payment could have influenced their evaluation of Archibald's success. (*£1500 in 1871 is worth roughly £225,000, or $300,000 USD, or $425,000 CAD/AUD in 2025.) In 1891, at age 83, Archibald Stewart was residing at Monachyle, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, in the home of his cousin, John McDonald Stewart McDonald of Monachyle. Archibald Stewart was identified as "grand-uncle" to John, however, this is not entirely accurate as their connection was through Archibald's mother. On 27 Feb 1896, at age 90, Archibald Stewart died at Monachyle in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. "At Monachyle, Lochearnhead, on the 27th Inst., Archibald Stewart, late of Edra, Loch Katrine, in his 89th year. Friends, accept this (the only) intimation. Funeral from Monachyle to Brig o' Turk, on Tues 3d March at 9 am." (Edinburgh Evening News, Friday February 28, 1896) | Stewart, Archibald in Edra and Monachyle (I15271)
|
| 1611 | Archibald Stewart was born 11 Nov 1810 in Killearn, Stirlingshire, Scotland, as the son of Duncan Stewart and Jean Hutton. Archibald Stewart has not been found in 1841. In 1851, he is believed to be the Archibald Stewart, age 39, residing alone at 33 Adelphi Street, Gorbals, Lanarkshire, Scotland. He was employed as a spirit dealer. Archibald Stewart has not been confidently identified in any other records. | Stewart, Archibald (I26160)
|
| 1612 | Archibald Stewart was born 1811 in Balquhidder parish, Perthshire, Scotland believed to be a son of Alexander Stewart and Elisabeth Stewart according to census records, however, no record of his birth has been found. Archibald Stewart is found only in the 1851 census residing in Stank, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland with his brother James. Archibald is shown as a retired innkeeper, though it's hard to understand how he could be retired at the age of only 40. Archibald Stewart has not been found in any other census record. Archibald Stewart is also not listed in Stewarts of the South, Section II, c. 1815, as being a son of Alexander Stewart in Invercarnaig, but this could be because he was too young. Archibald Stewart's date and place of death is unknown. No record of his death or burial has been found. --- The only close match is: STEWART, ARCHIBALD, son of DUNCAN STEWART/AGNES MCDONALD, 28/07/1807 in Dallinlaggan, Balquhidder. (From the Glen Ogle Inverlochlarig family -- married into McDonald of Monachyle.) | Stewart, Archibald (I15285)
|
| 1613 | Archibald Stewart was born 29 Jan 1807 in Colveny (Heads), Kilmadock, Perthshire, Scotland, as a son of Duncan Stewart and Christian Walker. Archibald's baptism was witnessed by John Forbes at Ballacaish and Mr Murray at Kilmadock. He may be the Archibald Stewart, age 30, residing at Dullatermore (Wester Dullater), Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, single, and employed as an agriculturalist. Or this may be his identically aged cousin, Archibald Stewart in Edraleachdach who was residing at Wester Dullater in 1851. No other potential match has been found in 1841. Archibald Stewart has not been found in the 1851 census. In 1861, at age 51, Archibald Stewart was residing at Colvey, Kilmadock, Perthshire, Scotland. He was employed as an agricultural labourer. Also residing with him was his sister Christian (54) and nephew Peter (1). Archibald Stewart, farmer, single, died 1864, July 7th, Portnellan, Callander, aged 54 years, son of Duncan Stewart, agricultural labourer (deceased) and Christian Stewart (nee Walker). Informant: Peter Stewart, brother. | Stewart, Archibald (I15281)
|
| 1614 | Archibald Stewart was born about 1757 in Nether Glenny, Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, as the illegitimate but acknowledged son of John Graham of Nether Glenny and his future second wife, Christian Graham of Calliemuck, but he was born while John Graham was still married to his first wife Mary Thomas. (source: Belinda Dettman, private correspondence.) Archibald's birth is not recorded in the Aberfoyle OPR as there was a “gap in records [1750-1755] due to lack of duty by Session Clerk," according to a note in the parish register. Graham of Nether Glenny research was submitted by Belinda Dettman, supplemented by the Red Book of Scotland, by Gordon McGregor. | Graham, Archibald in Nether Glenny (I7011)
|
| 1615 | Archibald Stewart worked as a beadle (church officer.) | Stewart, Archibald (I26013)
|
| 1616 | Archibald Stewart, fiar of Garchell, who died without children during the lifetime of his father before May of 1589. Archibald Stewart "fear (fewer) of Garthell (Garchell), parish of Drymen, sher. of Stirling" whose testament was dated 20 MAY 1589. (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland) | Stewart, Archibald in Garchell (I15290)
|
| 1617 | Archibald Stewart, Shoemaker, had a daughter, Janet who died in 1927. The informant on her death registration was her cousin, Duncan Stewart, who would presumably be the son of a brother of Archibald Stewart. Said brother has not been identified in records. | Stewart, _____ (I29314)
|
| 1618 | Archibald succeeded his father in the estate of Glassingall. He never married and had no children. He was succeeded in the estate by his nephew, Alexander Jaffrey. According to Ailsa Gray of Glassingall (2022), Archibald, like his father, became a maltman in Stirling and was still working as one around 1756. There's a reference in the guildry books to him paying some stipend due to Stewart of Annat and that stipend remained outstanding. He was an ardent Jacobite and was defence witness at the trial of James Stewart of The Glen accused in the Appin Murder (though he never testafied). No will or death certificate has been located for him. Archibald is recorded in the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856) as "Archibald Stewart, an only son, took up the succession of these properties as heir to his father. He destined the estates to his nephew, Alexander Jaffery, only son of his sister, Janet Stewart, He died unmarried." Archibald's death without any children started a chain of events that would eventually lead to an ultimus haeres court hearing nearly 75 years later over the legitimacy of the inheritance of Glassingall by Thomas and Alexander Smith, because "Alexander Jaffrey...disregarded the destination clause in the disposition dated 1777 given by the uncle Archibald Stewart." The preceding reference would suggest that Archibald Stewart died sometime around 1777. | Stewart, Archibald 2nd of Glasingall (I15288)
|
| 1619 | Archibald was a wright is Glasgow. | Houston, Archibald (I7764)
|
| 1620 | Archibald was also Duke of Touraine. | Douglas, Archibald 4th Earl of Douglas (I4984)
|
| 1621 | Archibald was illegitimate. His parents married five years later in 1728. --- Some descendants of George Stewart, born 18 Apr 1767 in Mauchline, Ayrshire, Scotland, son of Archibald Stewart and Agnes Campbell (allegedly married in Glasgow) claim this Archibald Stewart to be the father of said George. Documentary evidence and circumstantial evidence do not support that claim. It would be contrary to typical migratory patterns of the mid-18th century to suggest that a family from Drymen parish might move to Mauchline in Ayrshire. Furthermore, George Stewart has been shown by Y-DNA evidence to be a descendant of the Stewarts of Ardgowan and Blackhall who are not known to have had any documented descendant lines in the vicinity of Drymen parish. Mauchline is significantly closer in geographical proximity to Ardgowan than it is to Blarnavaid. Proximity also suggests that it is far more likely that a Stewart family in Blarnavaid would descend from a family on nearby Loch Lomond rather than from the much more distant Ardgowan. Thus, documentary evidence, DNA evidence, and proximity all make it far more likely that Archibald Stewart in Mauchline descends from a local Stewart family in Ayrhire and not from the Stewarts in Blarnavaid. | Stewart, Archibald (I30974)

| 1622 | Archibald Wilson Lauder was born about 1813 in Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. He was a cooper/joiner/carpenter. Archibald Lauder married on 26 Nov 1842 in Lasswade, Midlothian, Scotland, to Sarah Stewart. She was born 13 Sep 1814 in Broich, Kilmadock, Perthshire, Scotland, as a daughter of James Stewart and Mary McKenzie. She was descended from the Stewarts in Brackland, a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Balquhidder. "Archibald and Sarah emigrated to New Zealand on the MV Arima in 1864, landing in Bluff in the far south of NZ and establishing themselves in the Fortrose and Invercargill areas of Southland. "Their youngest son, named Archibald Wilson Lauder (after his father and grandfather) married Elizabeth Wedge née Cossgrove in Invercargill on 19 June 1893. Elizabeth was the daughter of Lt Col David Cossgrove and his wife Selina. David had served in the Boer War in South Africa, was a compatriot of Sir Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Scouts movement. David and Selina founded Scouting and Girl Guiding in NZ with David later becoming Chief Scout." -- Alan Beal, Auckland, New Zealand "On 25 Jun 1864, Archibald Lauder, a joiner by trade, and his family sailed from Glasgow, Scotland for Bluff, Southland, NZ, arriving 21 Sep 1864, on the second journey of the ship "Arima". He brought with him a sawmilling plant to be placed on a site on the Oteramika Estate, Morton Mains, Southland, for the New Zealand-Australia Land Corp Ltd. Archibald, Sarah and family lived on the Estate where houses were available for married men. About 1879 Archibald and Sarah settled in Fortrose where their company was valued, with respect and affection." (Posted on Ancestry. Source not given.) | Lauder, Archibald Wilson (I24552)
|
| 1623 | Archibald's baptism in the parish register is recorded as a daughter. The parish clerk appears to have made an error here. It's not clear if the error is the child's name or their sex. | Buchanan, Archibald (I29584)
|
| 1624 | Archibald's baptism indicates that his father, James, was a farmer in Godmanchester. In 1881 he is found residing in Harriston, Minto Township, Wellington County, Ontario, Canada with his wife and two children. He is shown as a photographer. In 1892 at the birth of his daughter Vera his occupation is given as "grocer." Archibald was also the town clerk at the time and registered his own daughter's birth. The 1911 census shows Archibald's occupation as "town clerk." | Stewart, Archibald James (I15278)
|
| 1625 | Archibald's birth is recorded in the Kincardine-by-Doune parish register as: "1809 Augt 6th, Archd, son to Duncan Stewart and Ann McGrigor, Kirklane. In 1814, at 3 years old, Archibald is listed as being with his parents in Kirkline on Blair Drummond Moss at the time of the 1814 Moss census. Archibald would have been about 10 years old when his family immigrated to Quebec, Canada. In 1818, Archibald's family left Scotland and immigrated to St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. In 1825, Archibald'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 1838 Muster Rolls for Capt. Patrick Buchanan’s Company, includes: Corporal Alexander Stewart, Pvt John Ferguson, Pvt Archibald Stewart, Pvt James Stewart, Pvt Peter Stewart. Capt. RB Somerville’s Company includes Pvt John Stewart. And the Dundee Local Militia 1838 paylist: Corp. Alexander Stewart, Corp. John Ferguson. In 1851, at age 37, Archibald Stewart was residing in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Scotland, next to his brother John and his inlaws John McMillan and Hugh Maclean. He was working as a labourer and was unmarried. Archibald has not been found in 1861 or later census records. No burial record has been found for him. He is presumed to have either moved away or died before 1861. Several of his siblings named sons after him. | Stewart, Pvt. Archibald (I15254)
|
| 1626 | Archibald's mother's name is given as "Janet Duncan" on his baptism. Archibald is described in Stewarts of the South as being a wright in Stirling with several sons. | Stewart, Archibald Wright in Stirling (I15251)
|
| 1627 | Archibald's name is not known for certain. The OPR baptismal entry is blank or difficult to read. Onomastics would suggest that his name is Archibald. According to Stewarts of the South and Mrs Stewart of Milton's Account, Archibald's father, James Stewart in Invercarnaig, had only one son who survived to adulthood and that was Alastair Mor. Thus Archibald must have died in childhood. Archibald is also not mentioned in the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856):, substantiating that he died young. | Stewart, Archibald (I15268)
|
| 1628 | Archibald's parents are unknown. He was the first of the family to be recorded as being in Acharn. It's not known if he was the 1st of Acharn, or merely the first recorded in Acharn. If he was 1st of Acharn then, as the earliest known cadet branch of the MacNab clan, he was likely a younger son to one of the chiefs. It would be pure speculation to guess at which chief he might be son of, if at all. | MacNab, Archibald 1st of Acharn (I24116)

| 1629 | Archie Stuart worked as a postal assistant. He was murdered on the 12 Oct 1924 by unknown assailants. The people responsible were never found. | Stuart, Archibald (I24055)

| 1634 | Arthur Angus was born in 1879 in Halton, Lancashire, England. In 1881, at age 1, Arthur Angus was residing at 49 Bridge Lane in Castle Ward, Lancaster, Lancashire, England, with his parents and siblings. In 1891, at age 11, just a few months after his conviction, he was residing at 194 New Street in Halton, Lancashire, England, with his parents and siblings. On 17 Feb 1900, at age 20, Arthur Angus, a warehouseman, son of the late William Angus, a former marble hand, married in the parish church at Halton, Lancashire, England to 18-year-old Mary Collinson Taylor, daughter of William Taylor, a labourer. In 1901, at age 21, Arthur Angus was residing at 99 High Street in Halton, Lancashire, England with his wife and infant son, Thomas. Arthur was employed as a warehouseman in an oilcloth works. Arthur's brother, John Angus, and his family lived next door. In 1908, at age 28, Arthur Angus enlisted in the British Army where he served in the Royal Field Artillery. He was residing at 2 Church Street in Halton, Lancashire, England and employed as a labourer at Messers Kelme and Co., Halton, Lancashire, England. In 1911, at age 31, Arthur Angus was residing at Church Street, Caton. Halton, Lancashire, England with his wife and children. He was employed as an oilcloth trimmer. On 27 Apr 1912, at age 32, Arthur Angus, along with his family, immigrated from Lancashire, England to Quebec, Canada, bound for Michigan, USA. They were travelling with Arthur's brother, William Angus, and his family. The family originally had tickets to sale on the Titanic on April 10, 1912, but (for reasons unknown) ended up sailing on the next ship, The Megantic. The Titanic sank on 14 Apr 1912, four days into its journey. In 1917, Arthur Angus was drafted into service in the American military for WWI. At the time he was residing in Flint, Genesee, Michigan, USA, and was employed as a special police constable for the Buick Motor Company on Stewart Ave in Flint, Genesee, Michigan, USA. In 1920, at age 40, Arthur Angus was residing in Burton, Genesee, Michigan, USA, with his wife and children. He was farming a rented farm. In 1930, at age 49, Arthur Angus was residing at Stewart Road in Forest, Genesee, Michigan, USA, with his wife and their two youngest children. Arthur was employed as a weight operator in an auto factory. Presumably farming didn't work out for him. In 1940, at age 57, Arthur Angus was residing at Huggins Street in Genesee, Michigan, USA, with his wife and daughter Florence. He was employed as a driver in an auto factory. His son, Horace, was residing next door. In 1850, at age 71, Arthur Angus was residing in Genesee, Michigan, USA, with his wife and eldest son, Thomas. Arthur was retired. His parents' birth location was given incorrectly as Scotland. No record has been found of Arthur's death. | Angus, Arthur (I171)
|
| 1635 | Arthur is shown in the 1880 census in Rensselaer, New York, USA as being 29 years old. His occupation is shown as "insurance agent" and his first son, Arthur, is shown as being born in Canada. The younger Arthur's birth registration in St. Catharine's, Ontario, Canada shows his father as an insurance agent. In 1880 Arthur Sr is residing nearby to John Wright Prangley from Branch 3. Arthur's wife is shown as widowed in 1900 in Washington, DC, USA with their son Osborn W. Prangley (transcribed as "Bangley"). According to this same entry, they immigrated (presumably from Canada) in 1872. Arthur's birth has not been identified and he has not been found in any English census. (The family of John Wright Prangley has not been found in 1861 in England either.) Onomastics and geography would suggest strongly that Arthur belongs to the same extended family as John Wright Prangley, although they cannot be brothers. | Prangley, Arthur (I12280)
|
| 1636 | Arthur Stewart was born about 1833 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, as the son of Duncan Stewart and Christian Buchanan, although no record of his birth has been found. In 1841, at age 10, Arthur Stewart was residing at Lots, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, in the home of Donald Ferguson (80). He was employed as an agricultural labourer. In 1851, at age 20, Arthur Stewart was residing at Eastend Village of Callander, Callander, Perthshire Scotland, with his parents and siblings. He was a scholar. In 1861, at age 28, Arthur Stewart was residing at Main Street, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, with his father, and adult siblings, Robert and Mary. Arthur was employed as a journeyman carpenter. On 13 Jun 1862, Arthur Stewart married in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, to Janet McLaren. They had two children before Arthur Stewart is presumed to have died. Arthur Stewart is not found in the 1871 census and is presumed to have died between 1864-1871. | Stewart, Arthur (I28219)

| 1638 | As a boy, William attended Guildford Royal Grammar School in Guildford, Surrey, England. He entered the army and served during WWI as a Major in the 2nd Battalion, Cameron Highlanders and was awarded the Companion of the Order of St. Michael and St. George and the Distinguished Service Order.

| 1640 | As a young boy James was sent to France for safe keeping by his father, King Robert III. Regretably, King Henry IV of England got word and James' transport was intercepted. James was captured and held prisoner by the English. James succeeded his father as King of Scotland in 1406 while he was being held prisoner in England. In his absence his cousin Murdac Stewart, Duke of Albany ruled Scotland. When James was released from captivity he returned to Scotland and had Murdac Stewart executed along with all of his sons in order to remove any potential rivals to the throne. However the soldiers were not wholey successful and Murdac's youngest son, James Mohr Stewart, escaped. [See notes on James Mohr Stewart for further details.] King James I was assassinated by his uncle, Walter, Earl of Atholl, Sir Robert Graham, and other conspirators. | Stewart, James King James I of Scots (I16161)

| 1644 | As Elizabeth was married in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland, while her husband resided in Kincardine, Perthshire, Scotland, Elizabeth is presumed to have come from Comrie parish. It's certain that she was born there, though the Dewar surname was common in Comrie. As she does not appear in Scottish census records, and Canadian census records only record her place of birth as "Scotland" it is difficult to confirm her place of birth. No confirmed birth record has been found for her. The only close birth is Elizabeth Dewar, bap 28 APR 1800 in Killin, Perth, Scotland, daughter of Alexander Dewar and Mary McDiarmid. | Dewar, Elizabeth or Helen (I4703)
