205 131st King of Ireland
Mor = "The Great"
"mac Earca" is a patronymic from his mother's side, who was the daughter of the King of Dalriada. Muirchertach's brother Fergus was the prince who defeated the Picts and founded the Scottish dynasties of Dalriada in Argyll, from which all the later Kings of Scots descend.
Muirchertach "The Great" reigned in Ulster for 24 years and died naturally in his bed (which was rare among Irish kings) on All Hallow's Eve 527. He possessed the Liath Fail, the marble coronation seat and sent it to Scotland for his brother to be crowned. The Liath Fail remained in Scotland as the coronation stone of the Kings of Scots until the time of Edward Longshanks. The Liath Fail became known as the "Stone of Destiny".

223 1779 Decr 10 Robert, son to Walter Stewart and Janet Fisher, Bowhapple.

Robert Stewart was a wright in Buchlyvie.

In 1841, Robert Stewart was residing in Buchlyvie, employed as a master wright.

1851 ditto

Findagrave shows a different Robert Stewart with the same death date of 14 Mar 1844 buried in St. Ninians and recorded as "Esq of Steuart Hall." with child Margaret Ann Stewart 1833-1838, and wife Helen Buchanan. 
Stewart, Robert in Buchlyvie (I27710)
 
224 1781 Decr 13 James, son to Walter Stewart and Janet Fisher, Bowhapple.

James Stewart appears to be the first of this family to have emigrated. He was followed by several of his nephews, sons of his brother, Robert Stewart in Buchlyvie, who ended up in Dundas, Ancaster, Carluke and Puslinch, Ontario, close to Kirkwall.

James Stewart is buried with his wife and son Archibald Stewart in Kirkwall Cemetery, West Flamborough, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada. Canadian death records show that he was born 11 Nov 1780 in Thornhill, Kincardine, Perthshire, Scotland. This birth does not match with Kincardine parish records. The closest matches are listed below.

As James was 32 when he married Robina Horn and named his first son after her father, Archibald Horn, then it seems likely he had a previous marriage with a son named after his own father. The only candidate for such a family in the Kincardine OPR is: "James Stewart and Margaret Stewart - Moss, 1804 Septr 9, William, son to James Stewart and Margt Stewart, Moss." They had only the one child.

Unverified online trees suggest that James Stewart was the son of Walter Stewart and Janet Fisher in Boquapple (one of the 6 possible candidates below). Boquapple is near Thornhill, but no James with a son, Walter, has been found in Kincardine between 1800-1812.

(A Y-DNA candidate from this line would not likely be able to help us identify which, if any, of the following families is the correct one, unless the DNA came back to not match the Stewarts of Balquhidder at all.)

According to Canadian records, James last three children were born in Scotland although no records have been found of their births. According to family records, James' wife, Robina, died in 1831 in Edinburgh, so the family may have moved from Falkirk to Edinburgh prior to emigrating.

Marriage and birth records show James and his family in Beverly, West Flamborough, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada by at least 1842.

Stewarts of the South presents us with the following leads, none of which are an exact match:

All but the last of the following families are candidates for James' birth. All are from the Kincardine OPR. At present, there is insufficient evidence to prefer any one of them.

229 1811 Corsley Bishop's Transcripts note: "Nathan Prangley has been absent for four of five years and the child [John] is supposed to be about two years old - spurious". The Bishop's Transcripts used "spurious" to mean "illegitimate". So John was a child of Ann Prangley nee Marvin, but by an unknown father.

In 1841 John is found living with his wife Charlotte, son Moses, and a 60 year old shepherd, John Potter. Nathan's sister, Jane, was married to Nathan Potter Prangley. 
Prangley, Nathan (I13036)
 
230 1812 Feby 16, John, son to Duncan Stewart and Ann McGrigor, Moss.

John immigrated as a child in 1818 with his parents to St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada.

In 1825, John'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.

In 1851, at age 35, John Stewart, labourer, was residing with his wife, whose name is given as Nancy Mclain (or Buchan, the handwriting is awful), and their one-year-old daughter, Nancy. They were residing with the families of Hugh Mclain and John McMillan.

In 1861, John's widow, Nancy, was residing in St. Anicet with her children. They were living with Duncan McIntosh, his sister-in-law's parents and next door to her brother-in-law James D Stewart and his family.

In 1871, John's widow, Nancy, was residing in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada with her children Nancy, Duncan, Agnes, Walter, and Archibald.

He is buried with his brothers, Alexander and James D Stewart at Zion United Church Cemetery, Dundee Centre, Monteregie Region, Quebec, Canada.

232 1832 Septr 30 Andrew McFarlane and Jean Stewart had a child begotten in fornication baptized and called Mary.

Mary McFarlane has not been confidently identified in later census records. Some online trees show her marrying George Ewart and living in Dumfries, Scotland, however this is believed to be a different Mary McFarlane who came from Rusgachan in Strathyre, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. 
McFarlane, Mary (I25123)
 
233 1841 census records him as a shoemaker in Frome, Somerset, born outside the county. Prangley, Cornelius (I12570)
 
234 1841 Census shows him living in Frome, Somerset, England with his wife Saray and a Leucretia Prangley whose age is given as 15. In 1851 Leucretia's age is given as 10, thus her age in 1841 is probably 15 months. Cornelius is recorded as being age 20 and Sarah, age 10. Prangley, Cornelius (I12581)
 
235 1841 living in Woodlands, Frome, Somerset, born outside the county. It appears that the entire family was baptized on the same day. In 1861 he is shown as widowed, living with a grandson named Sidney Pankhurst (uncertain), born 1853 in St. Martins, Westminster, Middlesex, England. Prangley, Richard (I13071)

Maclean, Hugh (I24991)
 
237 1851 and 1861 census show conflicting ages for both John and Rachel, but their birth place is recorded as England in all cases. Rachel's name is recorded in several different versions including Fryer and Fraies which sound more German or French than English. Also their son, Alfrid, uses a German spelling. It's possible that they lied about being English in order to hide their German heritage, which seems to have been common. Barnes, John (I743)
 
238 1851 Census mistakenly records his name as Danial Stewart. However, strangely, there IS a Danial Stewart, son of Alexander Stewart, born near Fortingall in the same year. Stewart, Donald (I15667)
 
239 1851 census records her as a pauper, living with her husband. Mary (I9500)
