1807 Bruce is not found in Canadian census records after 1889. He may be the W. Bruce Taylor who immigrated to the USA in 1901 and is found in 1930 in Los Angeles City, Los Angeles County, California, USA, age 51, mechanic in an auto garage, English, born Canada, both parents born Canada, wife Edith S, age 44, born Canada, both parents born Canada, married 1906. No children present. This same couple is found in 1920 residing in Elkhart Ward 3, Indiana, USA, with Bruce Taylor, age 40, born Canada, both parents born Canada, immigrated 1901, assistant factory manager, and Edith, age 35, born Canada, both parents born Canada, no children. This couple has not been found in 1910.
If this is the same Bruce and he emigrated in 1901 then that would explain his absence from the 1900 American census and the 1901 Canadian census as he was probably in Canada in 1900 and the USA in 1901 and would have missed both censuses. 
Taylor, Bruce (I18841)
 
1808 Bruce is recorded in Stewarts of the South as having died in the East Indies. Stewart, Bruce (I14899)

In 1911, Bruce was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with his parents and siblings.

In 1921, Bruce was residing at 383 Wilson Avenue in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with his parents and siblings. He was employed as a cost clerk at Steel Plant B where his father worked. (Believed to be a precursor to Stelco.)

In 1931, Bruce married in Lucas, Ohio, USA, to Dorothy Johnson.

In 1940, Bruce was residing in Ferndale, Oakland, Michigan, USA (a suburb of Detroit City) with his wife and new son. He was employed as an accountant.

Stewart, Alexander Bruce (I14785)
 
1810 Bruce, Robert (1274-1329), liberator, and, as Robert I, king of Scotland (1306-1329). He was originally named Robert de Bruce, and to distinguish him from his father and grandfather, who had the same name, he is often referred to as Robert de Bruce VIII. He is also called Robert "the Bruce". As earl of Carrick he paid homage to King Edward I of England, who, in 1296, defeated King John de Baliol and thereafter refused to acknowledge another king of Scotland. Bruce later abandoned Edward's cause and joined other Scottish leaders in taking up arms for the independence of his country. In 1299, the year after the Scottish patriot Sir William Wallace was defeated by Edward at Falkirk, Bruce, then still in favor with Edward, was made one of the four regents who ruled the kingdom in the name of Baliol. In 1305 he was one of those consulted in the decision to make Scotland a province of England. In 1306 he met an old enemy, the Scottish patriot John Comyn, who was the nephew of Baliol; a quarrel occurred, and Bruce stabbed Comyn. Bruce proclaimed his right to the throne, and on March 27, 1306, he was crowned king at Scone.

Bruce was deposed, however, in 1307 by Edward's army and forced to flee to the Highlands and then to the little island of Rathlin on the coast of Antrim (now in Northern Ireland). In his absence all his estates were confiscated, and he and his followers were excommunicated. He continued to recruit followers, however, and in less than two years he wrested nearly all of Scotland from the English. Bruce again defeated the English in 1314 in the Battle of Bannockburn, twice invaded England, and in 1323 concluded with King Edward II of England a truce for 13 years. After the accession of King Edward III in 1327, war again broke out, and the Scots won again. In 1328 they secured a treaty recognizing the independence of Scotland and the right of Bruce to the throne.

In his later years Bruce was traditionally said to have been stricken with leprosy and lived in seclusion at Cardross Castle, on the northern shore of the Firth of Clyde, where he died. He was succeeded by his son, David II. Bruce's grandson, Robert II, who succeeded David, was the first king of the Stewart house of English and Scottish royalty.

The claim that Robert The Bruce had leprosy is disputed by modern archaeologists. (https://news.westernu.ca/2017/02/rumour-rest-western-researcher-clears-kings-reputation/) 
Bruce, Robert the King of Scots (I1787)

1816 Burkes records Helen as the daughter of Llewelyn The Great, however more reliable sources record her as the granddaughter of Llewelyn, and the daughter of Dafydd Ap Llewelyn. Wales, Princess Helen of North (I19142)
 
1817 Burkes shows Patrick's wife as a "daughter of Galbraith of Killearn", however Stirnet says that Patrick's wife was Jonet Cunynghame. Private correspondence from a Galbraith researcher claims Patrick's wife's first name was Margaret. This is unverified. Galbraith, Margaret (I6591)
 
1818 Burrell Street Stewart, Catherine (I31857)
 
1819 Burwell Bridgman is found in 1881 living with his brother Murray in Nelson Township, along with an Irish household servant named James Thornton, born 1860 in Ireland.

1820 By 1818, Charles and family were in Monroe County, Alabama, USA. (Josh)
He is buried in Stanmyer Cemetery in Bay Minette, Alabama, USA.
"I can’t prove his parentage but all information, even down to property records and adjacent neighbors indicates my Charles was a son of James and Elizabeth Stewart, with Elizabeth being Patrick Stewart’s daughter. I also am not sure of all of Charles’ daughters, but I am fairly certain we have all his sons accounted for." (Josh Stewart)
"Charles Stewart was born in Drowning Creek, Bladen, North Carolina. His parents are not known but are believed to have been immigrants from Scotland. Charles claimed in a pension application that in 1782 he joined the revolution and served for 18 months, but saw no action before being discharged 06 August 1783. Charles reported that he spent most of his service on James Island near Charleston, South Carolina. In 1785 he moved to Barnwell, South Carolina and on 01 October 1789 he married Ann _____ (1772-1851). About 1791 they moved to Georgia and in 1818 to Monroe County, Alabama and probably to Baldwin County before his death in 1842." (Stewart Clan Magazine)

1821 By 1931 Amelia and her husband had moved to Washington, DC, USA. They had children. Stewart, Amelia Marjory Lily MacLaren (I17150)
 
1822 By all accounts he was a great man, a teetotaler, who worked all through the depression supporting not only his family, but also the wider family. He died of a stroke aged 52. Grandpa worked as a hand-riveter at John Brown’s shipyard on the Clyde working on the HMS Hood, the first Queen Mary and the Queen Elizabeth liners amongst many others. The only one of his brothers that I met was Uncle Charlie. I gather that hand-riveters worked as a pair one right- handed Grandpa and one left-handed Uncle Charlie. - from grandson Les Wilson Wilson, Thomas Gilliland (I19954)

1831 Calantowie = Calantine near Doune. Buchanan, Archibald in Calentowie (I1805)
 
1832 Caleb is described in Stewarts of the South as "[a] tenant of Inver-a-riach, [in] Strathyre, [on] Buchanan of Auchlessy's property" and in the Stewarts of the South Appendix as "Caleb Stewart, Innervulin [in] Strathyre, of the Gartnafuaran family, an industrious good man, £70, Buchanan of Achleskie's [property], under the same... [?]"

OPR records indicate that he later resided in Laggan, Strathyre, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Stewarts of the South records that he had only two sons, James and John, but no birth record has been found for any such sons. Onomastics would dictate that Caleb should have named his eldest son James, so it seems reasonable to suggest that Stewarts of the South is correct and that Caleb was married firstly to an unknown woman by whom he had sons James and John and secondly on 2 MAY 1795 to Janet Ferguson of Balquhidder parish, by whom he had sons Robert and Patrick.

1835 Callander OPR: 1766, Dougal MCLAREN and Isabel STEWART both in this parish listed their names for proclamation in order to marriage the 22nd March and were married the 27th August.

Dougal is mentioned in the Glasingall trial records as being married to Isabel Stewart, daughter of Archibald Stewart of Lendrick, and having a son, Archibald and a daughter Margaret who were claimants. 
McLaren, Dougal in Cornich (Stank) (I21215)
 
1836 Called "Duncan The Scholar" McVean, Duncan Sgoileor (I10696)
 
1837 Called "John the Wise or Witty". According to Deacon John McVean he lived to about 95 years old.

IGI possible: Johne McEven 7 JAN 1698 in Killin, son of Donald MCEVEN and Cathrine OGILVIE. 
McVean, John Glic (I10633)
 
1838 Called Red Duncan.

-DUNCR-----11 About 1600?

1840 Calvert family records indicate his date of marriage was 9 Jan 1812. Steuart, Edward Henry (I22042)
 
1841 Calvert family records indicate that George married an unknown woman and had two children, shown here.

In 1838, George inherited from his uncle William Steuart the farm estate called Aberdeen. On the death of George, the estate of Aberdeen was to be passed to George's nephew William F. Steuart, rather than to George's own son. (Nelker) 
Steuart, George Calvert (I21700)
 
1842 Calvert family records state that William Frederick Steuart had no children by his first wife, however the 1870 census reveals this William F Steuart as a one year old son. This William is not found in the 1880 census and is presumed to have died by then as his father named a later son William Frederick Steuart. No record has been found of this William's death. Steuart, William F (I22133)
 
1843 Came to Colrain, Mass., prior to 1751 ; owned and occupied the east half of lot No. 6, which was located about forty rods north of Fort Morris. The changes which a hundred and twentyfive years have wrought have nearly obliterated the site of another old Stewart homestead, yet enough remains to hallow the spot, which remained in possession of the Stewarts for upwards of twenty years. It has been a pasture for many years, but could the old turf speak and tell the tale of pioneer life there, more facts would be known and more history written. August 24,1770, when Samuel and his wife Alice sold the home lot, they were of Shelburne, Mass. April 20, 1780, when they sold land in the second division, they were of Colrain. This is the last mention we find of him. Samuel probably died at or near Salem, N. Y., previous to 1 800, when we catch the last glimpse of Alice, apparently then a widow " living at Merrimans " (probably the family of a daughter) and evidently soon to move with that family still westward " to the Ohio." It is supposed that she died in or near Beaver, Pa. She is said to have been called a " whole divine," good Scotch doubtless in theology. A Spartan mother who gave to her offspring their full share of the ancestral love for emigration, and to her sons that stanch and fearless patriotism that flowed so naturally in her veins.
