1854 | David Drummond was known as "Muckle Davie" which is Lowland Scots (not Gaelic) meaning "Big David". | Drummond, David (I5064)

1855 | David Harten was probably born in County Monaghan, Ireland. His son William Harten's Ancestral File claims that David was born in Barnhill, Lanark, Scotland, and died in "Poorhouse" Springburn, Lanark, Scotland, but this is a mistaken reading of his death certificate. The name of the poorhouse in Springburn is "Barnhill". His death certificate shows his place of birth as "unknown" and his parents' names as "unknown". As he lived most of his life in Whitehouse District, Belfast, Antrim, Ireland and was married in County Monaghan, Ireland, then it seems far more likely that he, like his wife, also came from County Monaghan. Family correspondence indicates that David's wife, Mary Ann Jackson, died in Whitehouse District, Belfast. David is not found in Scottish census records for 1861 or 1871, thus it is presumed that he lived nearly his entire life in Ireland and only came to Glasgow sometime between 1871-1873 after his wife died and presumably to be with his daughter and her family. According to David's only surviving son, William, David had a very large family with many sons. All of his sons except for William are said to have died in the Crimean War (ca. 1854-1856). David's official cause of death is recorded as "softening of the brain". His grandson noted the following: "He was a very small, reserved man. While sitting on a bench in Glasgow Green, he toppled over dead. No cause of death could be found at the inquest. So, after he was buried, his body was lifted for medical purposes, and it was found that his brain had gone to liquid." The following excerpt comes from David's son, William, as preserved in Beverly Jackson's family notes: David Harten and Ann had a nice home and a large farm in scotland. Because of the people they were ,a man that worked on there farm , need to be baled out of jail , the man ran away and David had to sell the house and the farm to payoff that bill. So he went to work at the whighthouse which was for poor people work. It was allso the poor house, the would buried them to. When sitting on a bench in Glasglow David fell dead after the funral his boby was taken for Medical purposes and found that he's brain had turned to liquid. David brother's were killed in the Criman War. David was a small man died about 1874. | Harten, David (I7720)

1856 | David Hume Stewart of Ballachallan purchased the property of Annat from his cousin Alexander Stewart of Annat, presumably as Alexander would have been forfeit as a Jacobite after the 1745 Rising. David also acquired the lands of Argaty from his mother on 24 July 1752 and, according to Stewarts of the South, he tried to swindle the estate of Ardvorlich from his chief, Robert Stewart, 7th Ardvorlich. In a reference to the property of Lettir, which belonged to David's brother-in-law, Donald McFarlane, Stewarts of the South also says: "from whom the late David of Balchallan swindled it, although they were his sister's children." Stewarts of the South describes David as "a keen grasping man closely attached to the world and not much to friendship." This is a polite way of saying he was greedy, selfish, and had no friends. He also never married and had no children. Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "David Stewart, 3rd of Ballachallan, succeeded his father in the lands of Ballachallan and had a Disposition from his mother for those of Ardgaty dated 24 July 1752.... He disponed his lands to his brother, George, on 9 February 1768 and died without issue at Ballachallan, on 9 November 1774." Given his character, this premature transfer of lands to his brother in 1752, suggests David was likely in declining health by 1768. David Morris' book, Robert Louis Stevenson and the Scottish Highlanders (1929), says: "Major David Stewart of Ballochallan was in hiding on the Braes of Leny, near Callander, with six friends after Culloden. They were discovered by a party of the Perth volunteers, who, after a tough conflict, overpowered Stewart and his comrades and carried them to Stirling where the major died of his wounds.... Two of Major David Stewart's brothers, Doctor Stewart and William Stewart, took refuge in America, where they resided at Annapolis in Virginia (now in Maryland)." The book also refers to Charles Stewart of Ballochallan being listed as a person found guilty of treason in 1747 and also excepted from the General Act of Pardon. There are several problems with this account: David's brother, Dr. George Stewart, emigrated in 1721, a quarter of a century before the 1745 Jacobite Rising. He wasn't fleeing afterwards. Several other published sources make this same mistake. Some private genealogies further show incorrectly that this David had an illegitimate son named Donald. In all these cases, David Hume Stewart of Ballachallan has been confused for his distant cousin, Major David Stewart in Ballachallan, son of James Stewart, 4th of Ardvorlich, who was the one who died in Stirling leaving an illegitimate son, Donald. 1.

|
1857 | David is believed to be the person mentioned in Stewarts of the South as "Commissioner Stewart" who is recorded as an older brother to Lt. Gen. Robert Stuart. Commissioner Stewart left one son who sold the little property left him by his grandfather's mother to his uncle, Lt. Gen. Robert Stuart of Rait. He was in Stirling at the time of his death (prior to the authoring of Stewarts of the South). It is believed that his surviving son was William and that John died young. | Stuart, Commissioner David in Stirling (I18690)
|
1858 | David is believed to be the son mentioned in Stewarts of the South as: "a young boy [who is] under age." According to later census records it would appear that David inherited his father's farm of Letter in Strathgartney which he continued to farm at least as late as 1861. Census records indicate that David never married and lived with several of his spinster sisters for most of his life. Census records refer to the farm as Letter (of) Ardcheanochdan, Letter, and Letter (of) Strathgartney. It's believed these are merely three different names for the same residence, not three different residences. David is shown living with his sisters Mary, Margaret and Christian and later with his nephew Robert/Ross and niece Jean. | Stewart, David (I15631)

1859 | David is described in Stewarts of the South (ca. 1815) as being already deceased. | Stewart, David (I15612)

1860 | David is described in Stewarts of the South as a slate quarrier in Bute with four minor sons. | Stewart, David (I15640)
|
1861 | David is described in Stewarts of the South as: "David Stewart, a spirit dealer in Glasgow [who has] two sons [who are] doing well" | Stewart, David (I15627)
|
1862 | David is described in Stewarts of the South as: "David Stewart, Moss laird, Summerline flanders moss. He has three sons, all at home." Fortunately there is only one David Stewart listed in the 1814 Moss Census as residing in Summerline which allows us to identify David and his family with confidence. No birth record has been found for David. David and his wife are recorded at the time of their marriage as being "both of this parish" (Balquhidder). The Moss Census indicates they moved to the Moss about 1794 from Balquhidder. In 1814 they are recorded as possessing 1 cat, 2 chickens and 1 cow.

The thirty year age spread for the children of this family makes it unlikely that we are dealing with only a single family. In the absence of marriages or other information it makes it difficult to know for sure. However if we are dealing with two families then it would seem reasonable to suggest that the Invercarnaig births are all one family and the other births could comprise a second or even third family.

He was a man of original character and of mark in the country, prepossessing in his personal appearance, a scholar, a theologian, and esteemed for gentleness of disposition combined with firmness of principle. He erected at his own expense a commodious chapel and schoolhouse about eight miles distant from the parish church." In 1851 David was residing in Manse Kilchoan, Ardnamurchan, Argyll, Scotland with his sister Anne Stewart b 1803 in Callander and an 11 yr old Anne Stewart b 1840 in Ardnamurchan shown as a house servant. | Stewart, Rev.

|
1877 | David is shown in The Ardvorlich History and MacGregor's Red Book of Scotland as being a son of James Stewart, 4th of Ardvorlich. "David Stewart, who styles himself brother german to ‘Mr. Stewart of Ardvorlich’ in his Testament in 1746. He m. Margaret, daughter of William Stewart, 2nd of Fungorth, (she was widow of John Campbell, 2nd of Lochdochart, by whom she had issue), and was apprehended for involvement in the Jacobite rising of 1745/46. He drew up his latterwill while under confinement in the Tolbooth at Stirling where he d. in November of 1746." (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland) David is described in Stewarts of the South as follows: "The old Branch of Ardvorlich Family (& sometime Macorriston) became extinct when the present Mr Stewart's father became heir - the last branch which you may see in Duncan Stewart's History was Robert a rude and boisterous man, he died without issue [sic - actually Ardvorlich passed first to David's cousin, Robert, 6th Ardvorlich]. Next David, his brother, was Tenant in Glenfinglas (and sometimes in Macorriston) was Forrester to the Earl of Murray. He was married to a daughter of Steward of Balled [actually she was a daughter of Stewart of Fungorth, believed to be of the family of Balled] and widow of Campbell of Lochdochard by whom he had one son - he was a promising youth he was slain at the unfortunate battle of Culloden. [sic - Stewarts of the South has confused the two sons. See below.]" David's baptism, shown above, is not certain. The entry in question shows no name for the child of James Stewart of Ardvorlich and Elizabeth whose baptism is recorded in Kilmadock. As David's birth is unaccounted for, it is believed this entry is David Stewart. David is also referenced in a book called "Jacobites of Perthshire" by Frances McDonnell in which we find him described as a Major in the Jacobite army, specifically responsible for collecting Bonnie Prince Charlie's revenues, and also as a Jacobite officer who helped take possession of Doune Castle, presumably in the company of MacGregor of Glengyle: "David Stewart, Major, of Ballahallan, parish of Callander, Lord George Murray's Regiment, Brother of Stewart of Ardvorlich "Collected his Majesty's Revenue" He was caught with six other refugees in a hut on the Braes of Leny. He put up a stiff fight, but was taken to Stirling, where he died of his wounds. The Prisoner's Roll shows that while in prison he was in hospital with a gunshot wound of the thigh and that a surgeon's fee of 6s. 8d. was paid for treating him. The evidence brought against him was that "he was seen at Dunblane dressed and armed like a rebel Highlander wearing a white Cockade. Others stated that he acted as rebel officer in taking possession of Castle Doune with a body of armed men." He was specially excepted from the Act of pardon of June 1747. Imprisoned 19 July 1746 Braes of Leny, 20 July 1746 Stirling Castle." A more detailed account of David's capture is found here: Upon the 15th Instant, Capt. James Campbell, commanding the Perth Volunteers in Balquhidder, having information of several Rebel Officers having returned to the Braes of that Country, went himself with a Party by the South side of the loch, whilst Daniel M’Euen, his Ensign, went up the Strath of that Country, towards Glenkarnock; but notwithstanding all the precaution used by the Captain, they found Means to escape, 12 towards the Braes of Brodalbine, and 18 towards the Breas of Lenny, and the Forrest of Glenartney. The Captain having Information thereof, marched with about 30 of his Men towards the Breas of Lenny, divided them so as to surround a party of them in a Sheill [a summer hut up in the hills used for grazing livestock], and to guard the Passes below, that none of them might escape. About Five o’Clock the Party under Ensign M’Euen surrounded a Lodge or Sheilling hut, from which they received a very brisk Fire, from the Door and two Windows, for 15 Minutes or upwards, which was returned by the Volunteers with the same Alacrity; afterwards the Rebels lodged in the Hutt, being all wounded except one, surrendered, viz. Major Stewart, Brother to the Laird of Advorlick; Capt. Malcolm M’Gregor of Comour; Capt. Donald MacLaren; Sergeant King, Alias M’Ree, late of Sir Patrick Murray’s Highland Regiment, and three private Men. Of our Men none were hurt tho’ several Balls went through their Cloaths, especially Thomas More the late Lieutenant Follie, who always shewed himself upon every Occasion, willing to destroy Rebels. (Extract of a Letter from Sterling (sic), dated July 22, 1746) In the preceding excerpt we also find the confusing reference in which David is described as "of Ballahallan" in Callander parish. The reference is believed to refer to the property of Ballochallan which is actually in Kilmadock parish but is located not far from Doune. The reference is confusing as the property of Ballochallan was held consistently through this period by the family of Stewart of Ballochallan who were a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Annat. Thus David could not have been "of Ballochallan." We also find in the Muster Roll's of The '45 a reference to David's natural son, Donald as "Donald Stewart, son of David Stewart of Ballachallan." The origin of this alleged association with Ballochallan still eludes us. It is possible that David may have resided "in" Ballochallan, but the designation "of" implies property ownership and David never owned Ballochallan. It's also possible the name may be a confusion for another property not yet identified. This confusing reference has caused a further confusion in some genealogies equating Maj. David Stewart with David Hume Stewart, 3rd of Ballochallan. However, the reference above states that Maj. David Stewart was "brother of Stewart of Ardvorlich." The Stewart of Ardvorlich at the time was Robert Stewart, 5th of Ardvorlich. David's testament is registered as: Testament of David Stewart in Glenfinglas who died in November of 1746 given up by the Earl of Moray as creditor. David is mentioned in the following excerpt from The John MacGregor Collection (1905): "Discharge David Stewart of his sallery as forrester 1743 ---I David Stewart forrester to the Right Honorabel the Earl of Moray in Glenfinglas Grant me to have received from James Maul factor to the said Earl the soume of one hundred pounds scots money in full payment of my forresters sallery, cropt seventeen hundred and fortie thrie years and hearby discharges the ~~~ as witness my hand at Doun the 29th day of March 1745 years. (signed) Dav. Stewart." David married Margaret Stewart of Fungorth, daughter of William Stewart, 2nd of Fungorth. Commissariat Records of Dunkeld confirm that David married Margaret Stewart "sister german to the deceased Patrick Stewart, merchant in Edinburgh, first married to Alexander Campbell of Lochdochart, and thereafter married to David Stewart, brother to Robert of Ardvorlich (12 Dec 1750)". | Stewart, Major David in Ballachallan and MacOrriston Forester of Glenfinglas (I15644)

1878 | David is the only child of this family whose baptism has not been found in the records of Duff's Presbyterian Church, Puslinch. | McNaughton, David A. (I10773)
|
1879 | David Mitchell's first name is not known for certain. The 1873 Donald Stewart in Edinample Family Tree says that Marjory Stewart married a man named Mitchell and then moved to Ireland and had a son named David. Marjory's cousin, Robert Stewart (b 1823, son of Donald Stewart & Jean McLashan), apprenticed as a blacksmith with a David Stewart, b 1808, and named one of his sons, David Mitchell Stewart. As this David Mitchell is the same age as Marjory Stewart and would thus be the right age to be her husband, it seems extremely likely that they are the same person. | Mitchell, David (I11390)
|
1880 | David Ord was born in 1821 in Coldingham, Berwickshire, Scotland, as the fourth child of Robert Ord and Mary Edgar. He appears to have been the first of the family to immigrate to Canada, as his first child was born in Canada in 1844, six years before his parents immigrated. About 1843, around age 22, David is believed to have married to 16 year old Johanna Sheehan, although no record of their marriage has been found. She was born in Ireland and was Roman Catholic. David remained a Presbyterian, but they raised their children in the Roman Catholic faith. There is no evidence of contact between David and the rest of his family post-immigration. It's possible that religious differences may have been a factor. There is no sign of David in the 1851 Canadian census. He was not with his parents in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada in that year. There is a noteworthy age gap amongst David's children following the birth of Robert who was the only child born in the USA. It's possible that David and his family may have left Canada for the USA just after the 1850 census and may have been in the USA at the time of the 1851 Canadian census, thus missing both. In 1861, at age 39, born in Scotland, David (surname recorded as "Orr") was residing in Stamford (Niagara Falls), Welland, Ontario, Canada, with his wife, Johanna 35, born in Ireland, and their first five children: Margaret 16, Mary 14, Robert 11, David Jr 5, and Andrew 3. All the children were born in Canada except Robert who was born in the USA. David was Church of Scotland. His wife and all the children were Roman Catholic. David is recorded as a yeoman farmer with 100 acres, 88 of which were under cultivation, 85 in crops, 3 in gardens, 12 in wild woods. The farm was worth $3000 with $300 worth of implements. He was growing wheat, barley, peas, oats, potatoes, and turnips. Only the location of birth for his youngest child, John Edward, is known for sure as it is the only birth for which we have a record. As David was residing in Stamford (Niagara Falls) in 1861 with a substantial farm, then it is presumed he was there in 1860 when his son Andrew was born, and likely there in 1858 when his son David was born. However, if he was in the USA between 1850-1857, then we cannot assume he was in Niagara prior to 1850 when his first two daughters were born. No records of their births have been found. The 1861 census merely records them as being born in Upper Canada (Ontario.) In 1870, David and his family moved to Indiana, USA where they are found that year in the census. In 1870, at age 45, David was residing in Logansport, Cass, Indiana, USA with his wife Johanna and their surviving four children. Their sons Robert and John Edward were not with them and are presumed to have died prior to immigration. David was employed as a railroad worker. In 1880, at age 59, David was residing in Peru, Miami, Indiana, USA with his wife and their four adult children. He was employed as a grocer and butcher. (Could he be the Tait that Hugh Stewart partnered with in Tait & Stewart Grocers? It would explain why Tait was named first!) In 1887, David's wife, Johanna, died in Peru, Miami, Indiana, USA. The 1890 census was destroyed and David died just prior to the 1900 census in Peru, Miama, Indiana, USA. --------------- From Findagrave: David Ord, Sr. h/o Johannah (Sheen).

1883 | David Steuart fought for the British during the Revolutionary War, but returned to Maryland where he died in 1814 and is buried at Dodon, the family estate. He tried unsuccessfully to sue his niece Sophia Home-Stewart for the lands of Ballachallan and Argaty in Scotland. MacGregor says, "David Stewart, who is included in litigation by his niece Sophia Home Stewart." David never married and had no children. He inherited Dodon from his father and is referred to in records as "David Steuart of Dodon." He also aquired the estate called Obligation. He died intestate and left a large and wealthy estate which was acquired by his brother William. (Nelker) He should not be confused with his contemporary Dr. David Stuart who married this David's sister-in-law, Eleanor Calvert. | Steuart, David of Dodon (I14701)

1884 | David Stewart was born in Ardcheanochdan, Lower Strathgartney, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, and later moved to London, England where he and his brother Robert were employed as land surveyors. David may also have been a lawyer. David was an active land speculator and purchased (possibly with his brother Robert) an enormous quantity of land (either 67,000 or over 70,000 acres depending on which account one follows) on Prince Edward Island, Canada, in contravention of Canada's strict land-ownership laws. These laws were introduced to encourage immigration and discourage absentee landlord ownership. The laws required that any land owner must occupy and begin to develop their lands within one year of purchase or forfeit their lands to the Crown. Duncan never lived in PEI and only visited there once in 1831; he lived in London, England the entire time he was purchasing land in PEI. David was the classic absentee landlord that these laws were enacted to prevent. However the aristocratic legislators in Prince Edward Island were lax in enforcing these laws, so David was allowed to indulge his greed. It was not until a generation later in 1875 that disgruntled and impoverished tenants on PEI rose up in protest and civil disobedience that the provincial legislaters were moved to pass the Land Purchase Act which enabled them to reclaim these large lands from their greedy landlords and redistribute them to resident landlords, and David's son, Robert Bruce Stewart, was forced to sell to the government all but 500 acres of his family's property. David Stewart is described in Stewarts of the South as: "David Stewart, his [Duncan's] brother [is] a land-surveyor and factor in England. [He] has one son, a character, who is proof against all disappointments and adversities." David is listed in Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions for Kilmahog Cemetery: "48a (next to 47) Robert STEWART, farmer (at) Wester Ardcheanacrochdan., wife Janet BLACK, son David born here 1 JUN 1769 went to England at an early age in partnership with his brother as land surveyor and land agent for many years in Great Russel Street Bloomsbury, London, died 26 MAY 1852, age 82, at (the) home of his nephew at Aucharacle near Strontian, Argyll. (Mitchell notes: see Allan, Emigrants to Canada (The Scottish Genealogist xvii 3 (1970) p. 89-90 ? the brothers, Robert and David, were active in the colonization of Prince Edward Island, Canada, and their letter dated 1834 to William Buchanan, Trossachs, is quoted [in the article.]) David is described in the following article, believed to have come from Stewart Clan Magazine, however the original reference has since been lost: "David practised as a lawyer in London. From a hand?written note seen in a file of tourist material in a local library.[on Prince Edward Island, Canada]??: Anyone interested in the local history of P.E.I. would enjoy reading a book titled After Strathgartney. It throws some light on the 'Land Question' by describing conditions under the Landlords.... David Stewart, born at Ardcheanochrochan, Perthshire, Scotland, was the owner of 70,000 acres, comprising Lots 30, 7, 10, 12, and parts of 47 and 27, which he visited from June to August, 1831. He never returned to the Island. His son Robert Bruce Stewart came in 1846, and took possession of the vast property, he built a large house on Lot 30 which he name Strathgartney. Among many privileges he enjoyed as proprietor of a great estate was a private mail bag. In 1875 the Land Purchase Act required him to sell all but 500 acres. His great?grandson, Alan Stewart, has his diary. (dated 1967, unsigned)." David and his descendants are described in the following article from http://www.archives.pe.ca/peiain/fondsdetail.asp?fonds=Acc2316 "The Stewart family of London, England, and Prince Edward Island was one of the largest land-owning families in the history of land proprietorship on PEI. The patriarch, David Stewart, was born in 1769 in Loch Katrine, Scotland. He was trained as a land surveyor and became a successful land agent. He married Martha Mann Hill and had one child, Robert Bruce Stewart, born in London in 1813. As early as 1808, David Stewart began purchasing land in Prince Edward Island and by the 1830's, the Stewarts had purchased Lots 7, 10, 12, and 30 as well as parts of Lots 27, 46, and 47. The Stewart family shared their Great Russell Street home in London with Robert Stewart, David's brother and partner. Robert died in January 1846. "David's son Robert Bruce received much of his education in the Arts and Sciences independently but was trained as a land agent and surveyor by his father. In London on 27 June 1838, Robert Bruce married Helen Birnie, daughter of the Prince Edward Island merchant, George Birnie. Robert Bruce, along with his wife and their five children left Britain on 29 August 1846 to settle in Charlottetown, PEI. In 1863, Robert Bruce moved his family, now including nine children, to a country estate called Strathgartney on the Stewart property in Lot 30. "Upon his father's death in 1852, Robert Bruce Stewart became the largest resident proprietor on PEI, owning more than 67,000 acres . He was one of the key players in the Land Question on PEI, fighting long and hard against the Land Purchase Act by which the government would purchase all large land holdings from the proprietors which were to be sold to tenants. In February 1876, Robert Bruce was forced to sell all but 500 acres of his vast estate to the PEI government. Thereafter, Robert Bruce left his Strathgartney home and retired to Charlottetown where he lived with his second wife, Harriet Amelia Mayne, whom he married 7 December 1876. Robert Bruce Stewart died in Charlottetown 9 May 1884." In 1841 David was residing with his brother, Robert, in St. George Bloomsbury parish in the Holborn Division of the Ossulstone Hundred in the registration district of St. Giles in the Fields, in Greater London, Middlesex, England and both were employed as surveyors. David's wife was not with him and is presumed to have died before 1841. | Stewart, David (I15630)

1885 | David Stewart, 2nd of Craigruie was baptized as Duncan Stewart. David is a known substitute name for Duncan. David inherited Craigruie from his father. David is also described as being "of Clach-Glas" (which means "Greystone"), and he later acquired the estate of Glenbuckie through marriage and became 14th of Glenbuckie. Stewarts of the South probably has more to say about David Stewart than any other person recorded in that document. David is recorded wrongly in Stewarts of the South as: "David Stewart, late of Glenbuckie, was son of John Stewart of Craig-grui and Easter Monachail [sic, son of Robert Stewart of Craigruie and Wester Monachyle] in the Parish of Balquhidder. Craig-grui underwent several changes and belongs at present to a Mr Don McDonald, a great tacksman from Glenlyon. And Monachail belongs to the heiress of the late Barron McNab." Stewarts of the South also says: "David Stewart of Craig Ruidh, Balquhidder, sold [Craig Ruidh] to one Maclaren. Again it was sold to Macnab of MacNab. Now (1815) [it has been sold] to one Macdonald from Glenlyon. David Stewart's father had once Monachill Mor and Monachill Beg [in the] Braes of Balquhidder, now the property of Miss MacNab, grand-daughter to Archibald MacNab of Newton, as mentioned above." This reference outlines for us the transferrals of property. David's father inherited the property of Monachyle which had belonged to his ancestors for at least five generations. David's father sold Monachyle to MacNab of MacNab and purchased the adjacent property of Craigruie. On Robert's death in 1747 David inherited the property of Craigruie. David is also described as having resided at Clach-Glas, which means "Greystone". However there were two properties in Balquhidder named Clach-Glas: one in Glenbuckie and the other in Glenogle. It is difficult to be sure of which one is being referred to here as David's ancestors were lairds of Glenogle and David himself later became laird of Glenbuckie. However, we believe David resided in Clach-Glas of Glenogle as this was still prior to him becoming laird of Glenbuckie. David is recorded in the Balquhidder OPR as "David Stewart of Craigrui" who married Grisel STEWART of Moulin parish, Perthshire, Scotland (located in NE Perthshire, near Pitlochry). It is presumed that David's first wife, Grisel Stewart, died, as David married secondly to Elizabeth STEWART, Heiress of Glenbuckie, although no record of their marriage has been found. David is described in Stewarts of the South: "This David of Craig-grui married the heiress of Glenbuckie, Capt Stewart's sister, by whom he had two sons." The connection to Glenbuckie is rather complicated. Alexander Stewart, 12th of Glenbuckie, had a sister, Mary, who was married to John Stewart of Benmore. Alexander Stewart, 12th of Glenbuckie, had no children, and instead of passing the estate of Glenbuckie to his younger brother, Dr. David Stewart in Auchnahard (not to be confused with this David Stewart), instead he sold Glenbuckie to his sister's husband, John Stewart of Benmore. John Stewart of Benmore also died without issue and the estate of Glenbuckie passed to his sister, Elizabeth Stewart. This is the Elizabeth Stewart who married David Stewart of Craigruie, presented here. Thus David Stewart became 14th of Glenbuckie by marriage. On David's death, Glenbuckie passed momentarily to David and Elizabeth's son, John Stewart, who became 15th of Glenbuckie. However, when Elizabeth died, her half-brother, Capt. Duncan Stewart, managed by devious legal means to purchase the estate of Glenbuckie and had his nephew, John Stewart, unceremoniously evicted. Meanwhile Dr. David Stewart in Auchnahard, son of Alexander Stewart, 10th of Glenbuckie, of the original Glenbuckie family (mentioned above), attempted unsuccessfully to reclaim Glenbuckie. So reviled was Elizabeth for her part in swindling the estate of Glenbuckie away from its lawful heirs that the author of Stewarts of the South described her as "a half idiot, [who] succeed her brother in the estate being heir-at-law" and later in the document could only bring himself to refer to her as "a lady of the name of Stewart in our country, whose name I shall not mention here." Stewarts of the South goes on to say: "Betty [Stewart, sister of John Stewart of Benmore] married one David Stewart of the Stewarts of Glenogle, Cloichglas, or Hyndfield, -- a branch of those Garnafuaran, or Sliochd an Toighbhaoil ("Children of the House of Voil".) Glenogle is a part of the estate of Breadalbane, Balquhidder parish. "David [Stewart of Craig Ruidh], by the extravagance of his wife, Betty, was under the necessity of enlisting as a single soldier, being but a simple good natured man and servant for seven years [to?] the late Revd Mr Maclaggan [of] Blair Athol in the 42d Regiment. After his return home rents were higher and his circumstances became more easy. And by his simplicity and short sight, he sold Wester Invernenty, Braes of Balquhidder, to the late Rev Mr Stewart whose son hath it yet also sold Blarchrich, Braes of Balquhidder, to the late worthy Capt Robert Fergusson of Stronvar. The Reverend Dunn Stewart bought Blarcroich from Capt R Fergusson's nephew, the present Provost of Cupar in Fife - which farms his estate with Wester Invernenty, Braes of Balquhidder, now the property of his son Capt Alexander Stewart of Strathgarry in Athol, of the East India Company. Mr Stewart, [the] minister, was called by many "covetous and greedy", [but] I thought this was not justice to his character. I believe he was a friendly and honourable gentleman. Many who slandered him would wish him back again. "When David Stewart of Craigruigh (Craig Ruidh) married Betty Stewart what he got by her would be now as good as seven or eight hundred pounds per annum. After [David's] death his son, John Stewart, late Glenbuckie, took loose reins altogether and was like to go through all. (That is, John was likely to waste his mother's estate's wealth.) [John's] mother, Betty, by the advice of Miss Annie Stewart, [Capt. Duncan Stewart's and her own] sister bound herself under the tutorage of [the following people:] her [half-] brother Capt Duncan Stewart, William Stewart of Ardvorlich, Commissary MacPhillip [of] Stirling, and the Revd Duncan Stewart of Balquhidder. As Capt Stewart had an eye in the estate [and] never took any steps to clear the debt after the death of The Revd Mr Stewart & Commissary MacPhillip, which would not permit of any misconduct, [Capt. Duncan Stewart] withdrew himself from the Trusteeship [and] the estate was advertised for sale and Capt Stewart bought it for £12500, which was thought undervalue[d] at that time. If one farm [could have been] sold the debt might [have been] be paid and the rest [of Glenbuckie] reserved. "After the sale of [Glenbuckie], the late John Stewart of Glenbuckie [son of Betty Stewart of Benmore and David Stewart of Craig Ruidh] was turned out of his maternal estate and the farm occupied by himself was let to his own tenants, which he thought more cruel than the selling of the estate itself. ( [This would be] the same as if Mr Duncan MacDiarmid would take your worthy father's place at Conichan. You know whither ingratitude he ought to do it.) But Glenbuckie Farmers shall never get such a good master. [John] offered [his uncle, Capt. Duncan Stewart] as much rent for his residing farm (that is, the farm where John was residing) as any other would give to his uncle, but was turned off, which he thought harder than selling the estate." | Stewart, David 1st of Clach Glas 2nd of Craigrui 14th of Glenbuckie (I15603)

1886 | David Stirton had received an elementary education in Scot., but aside from this he educated himself, and is practically a self-made man. He followed farming in Guelph and Puslinch Tp. for forty-five years, including his boyhood labors; chopping, logging and clearing farms, being an important part of the work done by him. In his farm life he was very successful. But it was not as an agriculturalist alone that David Stirton was to take a prominent place. He was early officially connected with the educational and municipal affairs of Puslinch Tp., being Reeve of the township for some years, and a Magistrate for over thirty years. He represented South Wellington in Parliament under the old Union of Upper and Lower Canada, from 1857 to 1876. In May of the latter year he was appointed Postmaster of Guelph, which position he held until his resignation in 1904. Mr. Stirton may be regarded as the father of the settlement. He is probably the only living witness whose memory recalls incidents that occurred when the first break in the forest was made. Though removed for some years from life's activities, Mr. Stirton retains his interest in public affairs, and nothing can he more delightful than an hour's chat with the old man in which he recalls some of the events that constitute the mighty changes that are covered by the span of his long, busy and well-spent life.

1888 | David Tait and his twin brother Leonard Jr were born in June 1853 in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada as the sixth and seventh of eight children born to Leonard Tait and Jane Ord. David was 18 years old when his father died in 1871. In 1871, at age 18, David was residing in St. Mary's Ward in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with his just-widowed mother and 14 year old sister, Margaret. David was employed as a shoemaker. His mother died a year later, after which he moved in with his older sister, Mary Tait. In 1881 David was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with his oldest sister Mary Tait and her husband, Hugh Stewart, along with David's other sister Margaret Tait and their brother Robert Tait. Robert Tait and Hugh Stewart were partners in a local grocery store. David was employed as a shoemaker. Sometime around 1884, David Tait is presumed to have married Margaret Middleton, although no record of their marriage has been found. She was the younger sisters of Agnes Middleton who married David's twin brother, Leonard Tait Jr. By 1886 They were living in Brantford, Ontario, Canada where their first child was born. David's twin, Leonard, had also moved to Brantford around this time. In 1886, David and his twin brother Leonard are listed together in the Brant County Directory as residing in Brantford, Brant, Ontario, Canada. Their occupations are not listed. Sometime in the late 1880s, David and his twin, Leonard Jr, later followed their older brother John W Tait to Tacoma, Washington, USA where David continued to work as a shoemaker. On 10 Feb 1890, David Tait petitioned for naturalization as an American citizen in Pierce County, Washington State, USA, at the same time as his nephew John L Tait. Three days later, his older brother John W Tait also petitioned. In 1890, 1891 David Tait is listed in the Tacoma Directory as a driver for SS Brooks. In the 1892 Washington State Territorial Census, David was residing in Tacoma, Pierce, Washington, USA with his wife and children, Robert Ord Tait and N. In 1892, 1893, 1895, 1896 David Tait is listed in the Tacoma Directory under "boot and shoe makers." In 1898, David returned to Canada with his family, settling near Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, not far from his brother Leonard Tait. In 1900, David is listed in Henderson's British Columbia Gazetteer and Directory as residing in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, and working as a shoemaker. In 1911, David Tait was residing in Saanich, Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada, employed as a farmer. He was residing with his wife and three children: Robert, Muriel and James. | Tait, David (I18992)

1889 | David Uzille was from Calais but his family came originally from near La Moussaye (south of St. Malo) in lower Brittany. He was a farmer, born about 1635. He married Marie Magdalina, the eldest daughter of Philippe Casier from Calais, before 1659. North of La Rochelle lies Bretagne or Brittany. Its peninsulas jut into the Atlantic Ocean with forests, heaths, valleys, Druid ruins and ancient castles. In Lower Brittany are those people speaking a variant of the old Celtic language. Brittany was conquered by the Norman dukes and later became an affluent Duchy. Here, Charles of Blois fought with the house of Montfort but it was finally taken by the Crown. One Breton name found here is Glaude Le Maistre [Delameter] whose ancestors were lords of Garlaye in the diocese of Nantes. Near La Moussaye, was the original seat of the family of David Uzille. The Reformed Church at Nantes and La Moussaye was supported by the Le Maistres and Uzilles. least some of them seem to have been the followers of Louis du Bois who came to America in 1660 on the Dutch ship, the Gilded Otter. Blanchan and Crispel had arrived a few months earlier and a few of the others came later, settling at Esopus. Du Bois was married in Mannheim, 10 Oct. 1655, to Catherine, daughter of Mathese Blanchan, who was also from Flanders. Du Bois was the son of Chretien du Bois, an inhabitant of Wieres, a hamlet in the district of La Barree near Lille, (then in Flanders), where he was born, 27 Oct. 1627. The French name Uzille was corrupted into Gille. One version of the name was Ziele - which may be a step toward Gille. (The name was also spelled Seely in later years.) It is interesting to note the striking similarity between Uzille (and its alternate spelling, Usile) on the one hand, and the place name Ousille-la-Riviere on the other. The Norman Le Roux were lords of Ousille-la-Riviere. Brittany, the home of the Uzilles, is beside Normandy. Perhaps therefore, the name Uzille comes from the place name Ousille. David and Marie Uzille's son, Pierre aka Peter, was born in Mannheim in 1660. At about that time, the Protestants in Mannheim became afraid that the Catholic Duke of Lorraine was preparing to invade their land. This may be why the Uzilles and the Casiers went to the Netherlands and took ship on the Gilded Otter, reaching Manhattan in April 1660. Isaac Tayne (Marie Casier's brother) had moved to New Amsterdam before them. Also on board the Gilded Otter was a man named Jacob Leisler - later to become famous as the leader of Leisler's Rebellion. The Uzilles and the Casiers were in New Harlem in 1661. This means that David and Marie's daughter, Magdalen, was almost certainly born there, since she was baptized in 1662. Magdalen was the first wife of Abraham La Roux the Immigrant. David Uzille eventually moved to Esopus, New York, which is probably where Abraham married Magdalen. The Casiers remained in New Harlem, i.e. - Harlem, New York City. Magdalen's brother Peter Uzille, married Cornelia Damen (my 8th great-grandparents) in 1685 while he was living on Staten Island; later he too, appears to have moved to Esopus. Cornelia was a sister to Lysbeth Damen, who married, Jan/Jean Casier, first-born son of Philippe and Marie (Taine) Casier. Peter and Cornelia had a daughter Sophia baptized in 1691, who married Storm Bradt (my 7th great-grandparents). Another daughter, born circa 1686, Marie Usile, was recorded phonetically in her marriage record as Marie Oeycke and she married Leonard-Tremi aka Jonar Le Roy in 1703. He was also known as Jonas Larroway and was the originator of the Larroway Loyalist line in Ontario. By 1686, David Uzille had left Harlem for Staten Island.

1894 | David was the only surviving son of his father, King Robert "the Bruce". He was married to Princess Joan of England at the age of four(!) and asceded to the throne of Scotland at age five. Thomas Randolph, earl of Moray, was appointed as his guardian. On Randolph's death, David became vulnerable to attack by Edward Balliol, who was being backed by Edward III. David and Joan fled for safety first to Dumbarton Castle and then to France, where they lived in exile for seven years. David led an invasion into Northumberland and captured Hexham, but was captured and taken prisoner by the English, where he was imprisoned for eleven years. Meanwhile Robert the Steward (later King Robert II) ruled in his absence. David died without children and the throne passed to Robert the Steward. | Bruce, David King David II of Scots (I1892)

1895 | David's birth entry is not found in the IGI. The fact that he shares a common birth date with his brother Daniel and that he breaks onomastics may indcate that he was either a twin or that our Kilmadock transcription has an error and there is no David at all. | McLaren, David (I10358)

1896 | David's birth is recorded in Callander, but LDS submissions also show him born in Auchtertool, Fife, Scotland and Rothesay, Bute, Scotland.

1897 | David's marriage record on Ancestry shows him as D. McCullough, son of J. McCullough and Sarah Hozzie. IGI shows David McCulloch b 29 MAY 1835 in Paisley Abbey, Renfrew, Scotland to David McCullogh and Sarah Howie. As he is later identified as "David McCulloch, Junior" the marriage record/transcription is presumed to be in error. Lovell's Canadian Dominion Directory for 1871, lists David McCulloch, Jr, in Hamilton city, of Lawson, McCulloch, and Company, Little Peel. 1881 census shows David living with his wife Margaret and family in Ward 4 of Hamilton as the only D. McCulloch in Ontario matching the age. The Ontario Death Register shows David McColloch d 20 OCT 1884 in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario with no age given, occupation "Collector Customs". 1891 census shows David's widow, Margaret, with several of their children. However, his son David is found alive in 1901. There are no other known David McCullochs in Hamilton at this time. His burial record also gives his birth as 29 May 1835. | McCulloch, David (I9835)
