| 2001 | Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, a tenant with [his brother] John at Stroin. [He is also] not married." | Stewart, Donald (I15695)
|
| 2002 | Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, brother to John, also tenant in the above place, left four sons." However only three sons are named in Stewarts of the South. We have been unable to identify this family in public records. It appears likely that Stewarts of the South is off by one generation with this family. | Stewart, Donald (I15864)
|
| 2003 | Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, his brother, who was [a] tenant in the same farm*, left four sons: two of them with his mother, one in the West Indies and one a wright in Stirling." Donald was employed as a blacksmith. He went by the byname Daniel. *Stewarts of the South is ambiguous as to which farm is being referred to as "same farm" as it appears Donald did not reside on the same farm as any of his brothers. This Donald was previously wrongly accounted for as being in Buchany. | Stewart, Donald (I21747)
|
| 2004 | Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, [James'] brother, [a] tacksman of Shibhrigh [in the] Breas of Doune [on the] Earl of Murray's [estate]." Donald has not been identified in any public records. | Stewart, Donald (I15720)
|
| 2005 | Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, [John's] brother, is a cottager in Milton of Aberfoil. He has one son who is a minor." | Stewart, Donald in Milton of Aberfoyle (I15863)
|
| 2006 | Donald is found in 1841 residing in Glenogle with his parents. Donald is found in 1851 residing at Glenogle with his widowed mother and brothers James and Archibald. Curiously Donald's occupation is given as "scholar" even though he was 40 years old -- probably an error. In 1861 he was residing at Glenogle with his mother and brother James. In 1871 Donald was residing at Glenogle and shown as the brother to the head of household who is Duncan Stewart (of Monachyle). | Stewart, Donald (I15684)
|
| 2007 | Donald is listed in his father's will in 1768: "James Stewart my natural son, Walter Stewart my second natural son, Donald Stewart my third natural son, Agnes Stewart my natural daughter." Donald's baptism is recorded in the Callander OPR: born on 27 Dec 1756, baptized, 4 Jan 1757, Daniel, son of David Stewart and Catherine Ferguson. The place of birth is not listed, but is presumed to be Breanachoille. The birth is not recorded as illegitimate, but Donald's father's will says that Donald was illegiitimate. | Stewart, Donald (I24227)
|
| 2008 | Donald is mentioned briefly in Stewarts of the South only as being the son of Alexander Stewart. Only his name is given. No further information is given about him. | Stewart, Donald (I15893)
|
| 2009 | Donald is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died as a child. | Stewart, Donald (I15655)
|
| 2010 | Donald is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South or any other records other than his birth. He is presumed to have died young. Or he may be the father of "Alexander, son of Donald" in Duncragan of Line 4: "Alastir mac Dhoal [Stewart], [a] tacksman of Duncragan [in] Callander parish, [on the Earl of] Perth's estate, [which] now [belongs to] Sir Patrick Murray of Auchtertyre. [Alastir] was of a bastard line. [He] left two sons: 1. a bleacher [in the] new town of Campsie 2. the other at Bonill Levenside [in] Dumbartonshire" | Stewart, Donald (I15691)
|
| 2011 | Donald is not recorded in Deacon John McVean's history and is presumed to have died young or may belong to a different Finlay McVean. | McVean, Donald (I11010)
|
| 2012 | Donald is not recorded in Deacon John McVean's history, but onomastics would suggest that Alexander's eldest son should be Donald. | McVean, Donald (I11084)
|
| 2013 | Donald is not recorded in Stewarts of the South, nor have we found any documentary evidence of his existence. He is suggested, without proof, by onomastics only. | Stewart, Donald (I15688)
|
| 2014 | Donald is presumed to have died as a child as this line died out with his father, John of Hyndfield. | Stewart, Donald (I15687)
|
| 2015 | Donald is shown in Stewarts of the South as the patriarch of 3 Line of the Stewarts of Dalveich. The Stewarts of Ardvorlich, Vol. 3, records Donald as "Donald of the Kichp, grandfather of the minister at Killin" who had a sister, Christian, who married John Stewart in Auchnahard. Donald is further described in Stewarts of the South as "a tacksman in Ardveich, Lochearnside, in Comrie parish, on Drummond's estate". And it indicates that he died prior to the writing of Stewarts of the South (ca.1815-20) and had three sons. His eldest son, John Stewart, moved from Wester Ardveich to Keip about 1817, presumably as his father had likely just died and he was taking his late father's place. Donald married on 16 JUN 1776 in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland to Catharine McLaren, with the marriage also registered on and 29 JUN 1776 in Balquhidder parish, and with Donald recorded as being from Balquhidder parish and Catharine being from Comrie parish. As Ardveich is in Comrie parish it is suggested that Donald was living at Keip at the time of his marriage although all his children were born at Wester Ardveich. Donald's eldest son, John, succeeded him in Wester Ardveich and later in Keip. His son, Alexander, moved to Summerline on the Blair-Drummond Moss in Kincardine, Perthshire, Scotland. His daughter, Margaret, and son, Robert, immigrated to Canada with their families. | Stewart, Donald Daniel in Wester Ardveich and Kichp (I15883)
|
| 2016 | Donald is shown in the Balquhidder OPR as being born in Sroinbhear bheg (Stronvar Beg). Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as a flesher, lately in Renfrew. Thus he died before 1815. Stewarts of the South mentions no sons, but it's possible that Donald had daughters. | Stewart, Donald in Renfrew (I15865)
|
| 2017 | Donald mac Emkin mac Cainnech, an early Mormaer of Mar, is said to have been one of the 10 Mormaers who crossed over to Ireland to assist Brien Boroihme against the Danes, by whom both were slain in the battle of Clontarf in 1014. The names of Donald's successors are unknown until the time of Roderick, about 100 years later, and Roderick accordingly is here numbered as the first Earl of Mar. However it is not known if a bloodline existed in the succession of the early Mormaers of Mar, so it cannot be said for certain that Rothri was their descendant, just that he was their successor. Mar with Buchan (the territory comprising that now covered by the counties of Aberdeen and Banff) formed one of the seven original Earldoms of Scotland, the holders of which were styled Mormaers in the 10th and 11th centuries, and later called Earls. Before the 12th century Buchan had become separated from Mar. | Mar, Rothri of (I9516)
|
| 2018 | Donald married 14 DEC 1833 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland to his cousin Catharine McIntyre. Catharine was bap. 12 MAR 1809 in Carnlia, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland as the daughter of Duncan McIntyre and Margaret Stewart. PLEASE NOTE: Donald McIntyre and his wife, Catharine McIntyre, both had parents with identical names (Duncan McIntyre and Margart Stewart). Both sets of parents were from Carnlia, and both sets of parents were married in the same church only one day apart. Both sets of parents have been given patronymic middle names in order to tell them apart. Donald and Catherine's mothers (both named Margaret Stewart) were cousins through the Stewarts of Dalveich. Their fathers (both named Duncan McIntyre) were almost certainly cousins through the McIntyres of Carnlia, however this research project is tracking the Stewarts, not the McIntyre ancestry, so that connection will have to be left to McIntyre researchers to determine. In 1841, at age 35*, Donald McIntyre was residing in Craig Uisin, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland, with his wife Catherine and their children, John (4), Margaret (2), and Peter (9 months). Also residing with them were his in-laws, Duncan mac Finlay McInytre and Margaret nic Seamus Stewart. and his wife's paternal cousin, 25-year-old Ann Stewart, daughter of Alexander Stewart in Summerline, and her one-year-old son John Stewart. *Ancestry gives his age as 55 which is believed to be a transcription error, otherwise the Donald McIntyre shown in the census is his uncle and this Donald is not found with his wife and children or anywhere else in the 1841 census. In 1851, at age 45, Donald McIntyre was residing in Gartnafuaran, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, with his wife and their four children. Also residing with them was Donald's 77-year-old widowed father-in-law, Duncan McIntyre. Also residing with them was his brother-in-law, Finlay. Residing next door were Donald's elderly parents. Donald McIntyre is not found in 1861 residing with his wife and children and is presumed to have died. | McIntyre, Donald in Carnlia and Gartnafuaran (I10075)
|
| 2019 | Donald Mclean Stewart was born in 1907 in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada. Donald worked on his father's farm in his early years and then took up a career as a truck driver. In 1911, Donald was a young boy residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, with his parents and brother. In 1921, Donald was a teenager residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, with his parents and brother. In 1935, Donald was residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, working as a farmer. On the Canada Voter List with him are his parents, his brother Douglas, also listed as a farmer, his widowed aunt Margaret Stewart and her sons, Kenneth Stewart and John Stewart, both farmers, and her spinster daughter Helen Stewart. In 1940, Donald and his wife were residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, working as a trucker. On the Canada Voter List with him are his his parents, his brother, Douglas Stewart, listed as a famer, his widowed aunt Margaret Stewart and her son, John Stewart, a farmer, and John's wife, and her son, George Stewart, an aviator. In 1945, Donald and his wife were residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, working as a trucker. On the Canada Voter List, listed separately, are his parents and his brother Douglas, shown as farmers. Also listed separately are Donald's widowed aunt Margaret Stewart and her son, John Stewart, a farmer, and John's wife, and her son, George Stewart, a soldier. In 1949, Donald and his wife were residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, working as a trucker. Listed separately on the Canada Voter List are his parents and his brother, Douglas Stewart, as farmers. And in another separate listing are his widowed aunt Margaret Stewart and her son, John Stewart, a farmer, and John's wife. Donald's father, Neil Stewart, died in 1954. It appears that Donald's brother, Douglas, inherited the farm at this time, while Donald continued in his career as a truck driver. In 1957, Donald and his wife were residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada. He was working as a truck driver. In 1958, Donald and his wife were residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada. He was working as a truck driver. In 1972, Donald M Stewart and his son, Donald N Stewart, are both listed as truckers. Listed separately are his cousin John Stewart, a farmer, and John's wife. In 1974, Donald M Stewart and his son, Donald N Stewart, are both listed as truckers. Listed separately are his cousin John Stewart, a farmer, and John's wife. | Stewart, Donald McLean (I15716)
|
| 2020 | Donald quarreled with his father over religion at the time of the great split in the Presbyterian church in 1843; he became Free Church while his father remained ?Auld Kirk?. They were later reconciled and John visited the family in Canada, he returned at a later date and settled in Horton. An ancestor was Black Donald Stewart, an outlaw and smuggler who had evaded capture by the revenuers until one night he was discovered by them while drinking in a tavern. The building was surrounded and the captain burst in through the door with his sword drawn, followed by his men. ?Ah weel, Donald? he said ?I guess we have ye noo!? ?Ah weel,? replied Donald, ?I guess ye have!? Whereupon he up-ended the table in front of him, and drawing his sword, fought is way through the enemy and escaped into the night. | Stewart, Donald (I15675)
|
| 2021 | Donald Stewart allaged to be the shooter in the Appin Murder of Colin Roy Campbell of Glenure. "Legend says that the Stewart clan knew very well who the real murderer was and that this secret has been passed down through the generations. In 2001 Anda Penman, an 89-year old descendant of the Stewart clan decided it was time to break the silence. She claimed that four young highlanders had planned the murder. They held a shooting contest and the best marksmen among them then delivered the fatal shot. That marksman was none other than the one who buried the body, Donald Stewart of Ballachulish. The old lady died soon after, and her claim was not confirmed by any other member of the Stewart clan. About the same time, Lee Holcombe, an American professor of history, had just spent twenty years investigating all the evidence in this infamous unsolved murder case. She concluded that it was indeed Donald Stewart of Ballachulish who delivered the shot. She wrote a book about her findings: Ancient Animosity but died in 2002 before it reached a publisher. Her son took over the work of editing and her book was eventually published in 2004. Anda Penman, it seems, was telling the truth. The story doesn’t quite end there. In 2008 an undisclosed member of the Campbell family hired a lawyer to forward a submission to the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission which requested to have James Stewart’s guilty verdict overturned." (https://mcleanscotland.com/james-of-the-glen/) "In 2001, Amanda Penman, an 89-year-old descendant of the Clan Chiefs of the Stewarts of Appin, alleged the murder had been planned by four young Stewart tacksmen without the sanction of James of the Glens. There was a shooting contest among them and the assassination was committed by the best marksman among the four, Donald Stewart of Ballachulish.[6][10] According to some accounts, Donald desperately wanted to turn himself in rather than allow James to hang and had to be physically held down to prevent this. Several years after James's execution, when the body was finally returned to the Stewart Clan for burial, Donald Stewart of Ballachulish was responsible for washing the bones before the Reformed funeral." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appin_Murder) Donald married his first cousin, Isabella Stewart, daughter of Donald's uncle, Alexander Stewart, 4th of Ballechulish. | Stewart, Donald The Shooter (I15897)
|
| 2022 | Donald Stewart in Lochearnhead and Edinample was presumably born in Perthshire, Scotland, perhaps in Methven. According to family records he was born in 1734 (location not identified) and died in 1806 in Balquhidder and is buried in the Balquhidder Kirk yard (although there is no record of a stone.) According to Stewarts of the South, Donald was descended from the family of the Stewarts of Druimcharry, a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Atholl, and related to the Stewarts of Garth. In the mid-17th century, the Druimcharry Stewarts held joint ownership in the property of Dalveich on the north shore of Loch Earn in Balquhidder parish, along with the family of the Stewarts of Dalveich. The author of Stewarts of the South said "But I think [Donald] was a MacanDahulic, but it is no matter [as] he was both honest and industrious." The Gaelic has been somewhat corrupted or at least compressed here so there are two possible renderings of "macanDahulic": it could a corrupted form of mac Iain Dubhlaic, or "John the Badly Behaved", or more colloquially, "John the Scoundrel", or it could be mac an dubh chulloch which means "son (or clan) of the black boar" which is believed to be the name of a cadet branch of the Invernahyle Stewarts of Appin who settled in Glen Finglas. John would be the patriarch of the clan from which the author of Stewarts of the South believed Donald was descended. When the author says "but it is no matter [as] he was both honest and industrious" it could mean "Donald is descended from John The Scoundrel, but Donald himself was both honest and industrious." Donald Stewart was employed as a wright for the family of Campbell of Auchlyne and resided in Methven, Perthshire. He moved with his employer from Methven to Edinample prior to the birth of his first child. Balquhidder OPR confirms that Donald worked as a wright at Edinample and resided nearby at Lochearnhead. Many of his descendants continued in the family occupation as mechanical wrights in Glasgow and later generations went into automobile manufacturing. Several of the descendant branches of this family later emigrated to New Zealand. Donald Stewart married on 24 JAN 1761 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland to Margaret MURRAY-alias-MCGREGOR. The parish register records them both as being "in this parish". | Stewart, Donald in Edinample (I15888)
|
| 2023 | Donald Stewart is buried in Zion United Church Cemetery, St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. | Stewart, Donald (I24945)
|
| 2024 | Donald Stewart is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald Stewart his brother [and] Copartner (referring to John Stewart in Lianach), [has] two sons [who are] minors [and pays] rent £200." He was a descendant of Walter nan Cleugh Stewart, of the Stewarts of Strone (Glenbuckie Branch VI). In 1851, at age 72, Donald Stewart was residing at Kirkton in Killin, Perthshire, Scotland, with his wife and four of their younger children. Also residing with him was his 3 year old grandson/nephew, Duncan Stewart. Duncan was the illegitimate son of Donald's son, Peter, and Donald's wife's sister' Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions: 11b by R & D STEWART, father Donald STEWART, died Kirktoun (of) Strathfillan 14 JAN 1867, age 85, wife Christian STEWART, 13 MAR 1858, age 64, their son Peter 17 FEB 1862, age 48. ('R' would be his son, Robert. 'D' could be either Duncan or Donald.) Donald is buried next to: 11a Duncan STEWART, tenant (in) Kirktoun, died OCT 1817, wife Janet FERGUSON died (at) Balmore, 19 DEC 1845, children Duncan, tenant in Balmore 30 SEP 1836 | Stewart, Donald (I15862)
|
| 2025 | Donald Stewart is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, a moss laird in Summerline, Flanders Moss [on] Blair Drummond's property, who has no family." There are only two Donald Stewarts listed in the 1814 Moss Census neither of which come close to this description. It's possible that Stewarts of the South may have Donald's first name incorrect. | Stewart, Donald (I15866)
|
| 2026 | Donald Stewart was a natural son by an unknown mother. His existence is not confirmed. He represents one possible interpretation of the following reference in Stewarts of the South: "Alastir mac Dhoal (it is believed that "Dhoal" is phonetic contraction of Domhnall, or Donald in English), [a] tacksman of Duncragan [in] Callander parish, [on the Earl of] Perth's estate, [which] now [belongs to] Sir Patrick Murray of Auchtertyre. [Alastir] was of a bastard line." --------- RESEARCH LEADS: The following represent all the Stewart births in Duncraggan up to 1815: 28 Aug 1717, 30 Aug 1717, Alexander, son of Archibald STEUART and Jean STEUART in Duncreaggan 1 Feb 1718, 4 Feb 1718, Patrick, son of Donald MCCOMISH and Christian STEUART in Duncraggan 2 Mar 1720, 6 Mar 1720, Thomas, son of Donald MCCOMASH and Christian STEUART in Duncreggan 7 Feb 1722, 11 Frb 1722, John, son of Donald MCCOMISH and Christian STUART in Duncraggan 5 Apr 1724, Mary, daughter of Donald MCCOMISH and Christian STUART in Duncraggan 7 Jul 1726, 10 Jul 1726, Thomas, son of Donald MCHOMAS and Ch.

|
| 2027 | Donald Stewart's birth has not been identified. His birth as shown here is a suggestion only. He could be from an earlier generation of the Gartnafuaran family. He is believed to be the Donald Stewart mentioned as a tenant in Glen Finglas and as one of the Appellants in the Glen Affair who was alive in 1755 and still alive in 1772. Stewarts of the South indicates that he was closely related to the main trunk of the Stewarts of Gartnafuaran: "The real representative of that family at present is a young man (Walter) a clerk in London, grandson to the late Walter Stewart who disposed of the lands of Gartnafuara. The present representative's father was Alexander, who lived in a decent respectable manner from a fortune, or small income, which he had by his wife. He resided at a place called Torrie, near Callendar. "Walter has also another brother in [the] West Indies, named Alexander, who is said to be doing well. "There is also another brother of the real family and is nearest to the above mentioned; [he is] Walter, a tenant in Glenfinglas -- one of the eight tenants of the name of Stewart -- and pays a rent of one hundred guineas. This person is rather a silly indolent man, and, however, has some abilities, but cannot make any use of them, either for himself or family. [He] is married to a very genteel woman from Aberdeenshire. [He] has three sons [who are] under age." Donald's son, Walter, has been identified as the one referred to in the last paragraph as being "Walter, a tenant in Glenfinglas." However the preceding reference is ambiguous as to whether it is Walter who is "another brother of the real family and is nearest to the above mentioned" or whether Walter is descended from said brother. As we have identified Walter's father as Donald, then the latter interpretation is preferred. It is thus suggested that Donald is most likely a younger brother of the contemporary laird of Gartnafuaran, as currently shown here. Another possibility is that Donald could be born later than suggested here and be an early illegitimate son of Walter Stewart, 10th of Gartnafuaran, which would also satisfy onomastics. The account of Mrs. Stewart of Milton says the following about Donald's son, Walter: "There were two Stewart families in Grodich. The earlier family are those who eventually went to Aberdeen. The latter went to Strathyre -- of this family was John who was nearly 100 when he died. Walter Stewart (Frangich) was in Glenfinlas. He married an Aberdeenshire woman McNab. He was of the first Grodichs." She also says further, "In Grodich there were two families. Walter Frangich was probably related to Walter in Edralechan as I understand he was a cousin of my mother’s. James on of this family was a clockmaker in Glasgow." According to Clan MacNab records, Catharine MacNab, daughter of Donald MacNab of Braeleny, married a Stewart by whom she had one or two sons before her Stewart husband died. (See notes on son, Walter for further reconcilliation of this account with Stewart records.) Only one birth has been found for this couple, thus it is suggested that Donald died shorly after 1777. | Stewart, Donald in Grodich and Auchnahard (I21233)
|
| 2028 | Donald succeeded his father by 1653 at the latest. He was alive in 1683 and died before July 1689. (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland.) | Stewart, Donald of Achnacone (I23819)
|
| 2029 | Donald was a shepherd on the Immereon farm in Glenbuckie. According to The Stewarts of Ardvorlich, Vol. 3, p. 56, Donald moved to Australia and had two daughters, Helen and Helen Heather. It's unclear if he had his children in Scotland or Australia. | Stewart, Donald (I15657)
|
| 2030 | Donald was injured at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, | Stewart, Donald (I15896)
|
| 2031 | Donald was nicknamed "nan Ord" ("of the hammer") because of his ability two wield two smiths hammers at a time. He was a very young child when his father was murdered by Green Colin Campbell of Dunstaffnage. Donald was raised in secret by the local blacksmith in order to protect him from the Campbells of Dunstaffnage. Donald was not told of his true identity until he was a youth. Donald took revenge for his father's murder and killed Green Colin Campbell along with several other Campbell. This of course only served to further enflame the feud between the two clans. Donald was alive in 1547 and led Clan Appin at the Battle of Plinkie. | Stewart, Donald nan Ord 2nd of Invernahyle (I15717)
|
| 2032 | Donald was residing with his parents in 1881 and 1891. In 1891 he was employed as a marine engineer at sea. | Stewart, Donald B (I15855)
|
| 2033 | Donald's birth date is unknown. The date shown here is purely a guess based on the chronology of his siblings. Donald is recorded in Mitchell's MIs as having died in infancy, but no date is given. No birth record has been found either. So it is merely suggested that he was probably born around 1828. | Ferguson, Donald (I5923)
|
| 2034 | Donald's birth information is shown here as given in family records, however his baptism is not recorded in the Chateauguay transcriptions. Donald grew up on the family farm in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada, just 5 km from the border with New York, USA. Donald was not residing with his parents in 1861. He has not been found in the 1861 census. Sometime in the early 1860s, Donald Stewart married Louisa Webster. She is mentioned in Donald's obituary as his first wife. No other record of her has been found. It is not known if she was Canadian or American nor where their wedding took place. She is presumed to have died sometime before 1864. On 28 Jul 1864, Donald Stewart married his second wife, Jane Maria Cowan, with whom he had four children. In 1870, Donald Stewart was residing in Malone, Franklin, New York, USA, with his wife and son, Frank. He was employed as a blacksmith at the time. In 1880, Donald Stewart was residing in Malone, Franklin, New York, USA, with his wife and their four children. He was employed as a merchant at the time. In 1900, Donald Stewart was residing in Malone, Franklin, New York, USA, with his third wife, Cordelia, and his four children. He was employed as a undertaker at the time. In 1910, Donald Stewart was residing in Malone, Franklin, New York, USA, with his third wife, Cordelia, and three of his children. He was employed as a wage earner at the time. | Stewart, Donald J (I15860)
|
| 2035 | Donald's birth is not found in the Callander OPR, however, he is recorded in the Glasingall trial records as, "Donal farmer in Glenlyon (sic - Glenorchy), born 26 July 1814." Donald is found in family records and in the Account of Mrs Stewart of Milton and in census records. In 1871 and 1881 Donald was residing in Auchalader, Glenorchy, Argyll, Scotland and was a farmer of 20,000 acres -- an enormous farm. Donald died on 9 AUG 1898 at Auchallander, Glenorchy, Argyll, Scotland at the age of 84. His death record shows his parents as Alexander Stewart and Christian Stewart. Donald never married but had relations with Margaret MACKAY and had a natural son, Archibald McKay Stewart. | Stewart, Donald in Auchalader (I15719)

| 2036 | Donald's birth record has not been identified. He is described in Stewarts of the South as: "Donald, [who is] at home with himself." | Stewart, Donald (I15694)
|
| 2037 | Donald's children are not certain. Donald is found in 1841 in Crieff with his wife Ann Gould/Guild the following children: Janet 1830 Archibald 1831 Catharine 1834 Peter 1836 Anne 1837 Frances 1840 Corresponding baptism records can be found for Archibald, Catharine and Fanny (Frances). Janet Stewart is recorded in the 1873 Donald Stewart in Edinample Family Tree as being the daughter of a Stewart father and Margaret Stewart. Her marriage record shows her parents as Donald Stewart and Margaret Stewart. The 1861 census shows her as being born in Crieff. There is a corresponding baptism record for Janet born/bap 4/12 JUL 1830 in Crieff, daughter of Donald and Margaret Stewart (from IGI, OPR has not yet been consulted). This is the only child born to this couple. The 1841 census in Crieff shows only one Janet with a father Donald (and only one Donald for that matter) and that's the family shown above. As Donald married Ann Gould/Guild in 1828, it would appear that Janet is the product of an extramarital relationship. All this remains subject to confirmation. The Appendix to Stewarts of the South records only one entry for Crieff parish, which happens to fit what we know of this family so far: "Donald Stewart, [in] Strowan, [in the] united parish of Crieff and Strowan, of [the] Grandtully family, an industrious, well-doing man, on [the estate of] Capt Graham Stirling of Airth, a respectable good gentleman, Strowan estate, £40." Donald is shown in 1841 as being born in 1796 which corresponds with the birth shown here. | Stewart, Donald (I15876)
|
| 2038 | Donald's family is recorded here only because several of them married into several branches of the Stewarts of Balquhidder and thus it has been helpful to track this family to determine the inter-relationships of the various Stewart branches. Donald may be the Donald McDonald born/bap 11/11 APR 1720 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland son of Archibald McDonald and Christian Buchanan. Donald's second marriage is not confirmed here. But the son John shown here later resided in Callander and according to Mrs Stewart of Milton, John McDonald was born May 1758 and was related to Archibald McDonald. We're showing John and Archibald McDonald as half-brothers, however it's also possible that they were related through the Stewarts of Cashlie and not through the McDonalds of Glen Lyon. The present arrangment is the simpler of the two and fits with all known evidence and is thus preferred for now. No marriage record has been found for Donald McDonald and Katrine Stewart. | McDonald, Donald of Glen Lyon (I9930)
|
| 2039 | Donald's father's entry in Stewarts of the South says, in part: "[John] has four sons who are all minors. One of them is a student intended for the Church of Scotland." The following reference from Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions for Balquhidder cemetery is believed to pertain to the son intended for the Church of Scotland: "6 Rev. Donald STEWART, minister of the parish of St Marks Demerary, died 28 NOV 1831, age 27." According to the MI entry, Donald was born ca. 1804. There are two Donald Stewarts born in 1804 (none in 1803 or 1805), and only one of these is described as a student of divinity. Thus it would appear that the Donald Stewart of St. Mark's parish must be this Donald Stewart. "St. Mark's parish, Demerary" is actually St. Mark's parish, Church of Scotland, in Demerara, West Bank, British Guyana. Donald is described in the Fasti Ecclesia Scoticana as "STEWART, DONALD, arrived 29th April 1831 ; died in seven months." | Stewart, Rev. Donald (I15653)
|
| 2040 | Donald's mother's name is recorded only as "Mclaren" at his baptism. Donald is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died as a child. | Stewart, Donald (I15656)
|
| 2041 | Donald's wife's death in 1885 records her as a widow. As Donald and Ann are found living in East Flamborough in 1881 then Donald must have died between 1881-1885. No corresponding death record has been found. Donald and Ann must have married in Scotland prior to emigration. Their daughter, Agnes, was born in Scotland in 1830 and Ann's family arrived sometime in the early 1830s (ca 1834). However the only family for a Donald and Ann Stewart found in the IGI is: Donald Stewart, married 11 DEC 1831 in Blair Athol, Perth, Scotland to Ann Stewart. They had the following children: 1. William STEWART, b 1/12 MAY 1834 in Blair Atholl (could be the second William in the E Flam 1852) 2. Isabell STEWART, b 12/20 MAY 1837 in Blair Atholl 3. Robert STEWART, b 12/20 MAR 1840 in Blair Atholl There is no daughter named Agnes and the children above do not fit onomastically with Ann's family. (i.e. There is no son named John.) And this couple are shown having children in Scotland after Donald and Ann are believed to have emigrated. Thus it would appear that this is not the family of Donald and Ann who came to East Flamborough and that the correct Donald and Ann are not found at all in the IGI (probably because they were Roman Catholic.) | Stewart, Donald (I15665)
|
| 2042 | Donald's's exact date of birth is uncertain as the entry is inserted into the Balquhidder OPR out of sequence. Donald is described in Stewarts of the South as residing in Kirkline, Flander's Moss, Blair Drummond, Kincardine-by-Doune parish, and as having a family of sons ca. 1815. The 1814 Moss Census shows Donald residing at #12 Kirk Lane, Blair Drummond Moss, just three farms away from his brother John at #9 Kirk Lane. They owned one cow and one horse and had been living on the Moss for only one year. Their former residence was given as Lochearnhead. | Stewart, Donald in Kirkline (I15890)

| 2043 | DONALD, EARL OF MAR, was knighted by Alexander III at Scone, 29 Sep. 1270. He had succeeded to the Earldom by 25 July 1281, when he swore at Roxburgh to observe the terms of the marriage contract between Princess Margaret and King Eric of Norway. He was one of the magnates who, after the death of King Alexander, acknowledged Margaret, dau. of the said Princess, as heir to the throne of Scotland, at Scone, 5 Feb. 1283/4; and of those who, in their own name and the name of the com- munity of the realm of Scotland, in a convention at Brigham, 17 Mar. 1289/90, confirmed the treaty of marriage between the said Margaret of Norway, then Queen of Scotland, and Edward, son of Edward I. After Queen Margaret's death in 1290 the Earl of Mar became a strong Supporter of Bruce's claims, and was one of the seven earls 10 whose action in1290 appears to have been the first step taken to appeal for a decision to the King of England as overlord. He swore fealty to Edward I as his overlord 13 June 1291. The Earl of Mar was one of the Scottish nobles summoned to accompany Edward to Gascony, Sep. 1294. 11 He was active in the Scottish revolt against England, and was taken prisoner at, or after, the battle of Dunbar, 27 Apr. 1296; but, on the submission of Baliol, he did homage at Montrose in July following, and on 31 July- 1 Aug. Edward visited him at his castle of Kudrummy. On 28 Aug. he did homage again at Benvick. On 23 June 1297, at Westminster, he took an oath to serve Edward against the King of France. The following month he sent a report to the King about the state of the magnates in the North, and the 23th of this month is the last date at which he is known to have been alive. He m. Helen, widow of Malcolm, Earl of Fife (who d. 1266), and dau. of Llewelyn, Prince of North Wales. She was living in Feb. 1294/5. He died probably soon after 25 July 1297. | Mar, Donald of (I9505)

| 2044 | Donald/Daniel Stewart is recorded in Stewarts of the South as "1. Donald Stewart, son to Archibald Stewart, tacksman of Lendrick, a purchase of Sir Patrick Murray from Perth family, Callander parish, has one son and pays £330 of rent." Daniel is shown in the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856): as Daniel Stewart of Lendrick, son of Archibald Stewart of Lendrick, and father of "Archibald Stewart of Lendrick, a petitioner." Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions record's Donald's burial: "27 pelican plucking its breast, in her nest (Stewart crest). Daniel STEWART, late farmer (at) Landrick, died 11 MAR 1846, age 89, wife Margaret MACKINLAY, 22 OCT 1848, age 83." | Stewart, Donald 3rd of Lendrick (I15861)
