| 2651 | George's wife is unknown. He is found in 1861 and 1871 residing in Carse of Delnies, Nairn, Scotland with his widowed mother, his two children shown here, and also with his spinster sisters, Jessie, and Annie. In 1861 his mother is shown as head and George is shown as a ploughman. In 1871 he is also shown with a 12 year old Isabella Campbell, domestic servant, who could be a niece. | Cuthbert, George (I3456)

| 2662 | GIDEON UNDERWOOD, the oldest practicing physician in Luzerne county, was born at Forty Fort December 3, 1819, a son of Gideon and Sarah (Brown) Underwood, natives of Massachusetts and Pennsylvania, respectively, and among the pioneers of the Wyoming Valley. Of a family of ten children, our subject is the only survivor. He was reared on a farm, and educated in the public schools and a private academy at Wilkes-Barre. He began the study of medicine in 1842, under George Wurts, of Kingston, and in 1846 was graduated from Geneva Medical College, Geneva, New York. He at once began the practice of his profession in Scranton, removing to North Moreland in 1848, and thence, in the same year, to Pittston, where he has since resided. Dr. Underwood married, February 3, 1848, Martha, daughter of Elisha and Martha (Harding) Newman. Her father, born in 1791, is still living at the age of one hundred and one years, and resides in Bradford county, Pa. The issue of this marriage was the following children: Caroline (Mrs. Henry Coward), Edwin N., Helen M. (Mrs. Rev. F. A. Falkner), Walter S., George F., Charles S. and Sanford L., a student in the Medical department of the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Underwood has been a member of the Broad Street M.E. Church since 1848, and through all its trials and troubles one of its stanchest supporters. He is a member of the I.O.O.F., K. of P., T. of H. and G.A.R.; during the war he was assistant surgeon of the Forty-ninth Pennsylvania Volunteers. In politics, he is a Republican and an advocate of Prohibition. http://www.usgwarchives.org/pa/Luzerne/1893hist/1893bios/93u.htm | Underwood, Gideon (I20508)

| 2663 | Gilbert is recorded as a natural son. His real birth mother is unknown. | Drummond, Gilbert (I5072)
|
| 2664 | Gilbert Wrong lived on the farm until the War of 1812 broke out. He then joined the forces as an Ensign. After the Americans crossed the Niagara River at Queenston, General Isaac Brock rode up from Niagara-on-the-Lake, saw the situation, and sent Gilbert to Chippewa with a message to the commander of the forces there. When Gilbert got back to Queenston, Brock was already dead, but the Americans had been driven back across the river. Gilbert was a musician and wrote a song that was apparently popular during the war years. Gilbert and his family have not been found in the 1851 census. | Wrong, Gilbert (I20364)
|
| 2665 | Gille Domnan has been elsewhere shown as Gille Adomnan = "servant of Adam". Stirnet.com wrongly corrupts his name to be "Orila Dumnan" -- probably a transcription error. Gille Domnan succeeded Marcus as King of the Isles, but it is not certain that he was actually the son of Marcus. Marcus was defeated by the Scandinavians and was expelled to Ireland where he is believed to have died. His grandson, Somerled, reclaimed the Isles in 1140 and founded the dynasty of the Lords of the Isles. | Domnan, Gille (I5035)
|
| 2666 | Gillebride is also known as "Gille Brighid" or "servant of Brigit". Brigit is the name of an Irish goddess, later co-opted as a Christian saint. Thus, Gillebride was probably a servant of the church of St. Brigit. | Morven, Gillebride of (I11509)

| 2675 | Glen died tragically at work on the railroad in British Columbia. An interesting trait with the Tasker family is that, at least for this generation, it appears that everyone was referred to by a reduction of their middle name.

| 2682 | Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) gives no further information on Alan other than his name. | Stewart, Alan (I23843)
|
| 2683 | Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) lists this Dugald as first in his chapter on the Stewarts of Achancone, but he does not enumerate him as "1st" of Achnacone. Earlier, in his chapter on the Stewarts of Appin, he shows Dugald Stewart, 1st of Achnacone, as being a younger son of Allan Stewart, 3rd of Appin. It is chronologically impossible for them to be the same Dugald Stewart as they lived about 75 years apart. There must be at least one, if not possibly two, intervening generations between them. Presumably this is why MacGregor does not enumerate the later Achnacone Stewarts, but merely refers to them as "of Achnacone." Stewart & Stewart (The Stewarts of Appin, 1880) lament that the Achnacone family papers have been lost so the intervening generations are unknown. MacGregor has succeeded in filling in some of those missing generations from other sources. | Stewart, Dugald of Achnacone (I23824)
|
| 2684 | Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) says that Donald Stewart of Auchnacone married Mary, a daughter of Donald Campbell of Auchanard. It is not certain if this is the same place as Auchnahard in Glen Finglas, but it would make sense that it is. | Campbell, Mary of Auchanard (I23833)
|
| 2685 | Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) says, "Alexander Stewart, who is said to have had two sons, both of whom served in the Appin Regiment and were killed at the battle of Culloden, in April 1746." | Stewart, Alexander 3rd of Acharn (I21467)
|
| 2686 | Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) says, "Duncan Stewart, in Stronvar, subscribed a Bond of Friendship with Alexander Stewart of Ardvorlich, and other local Stewarts, to Sir Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy on 17 September 1623 in which he is styled 'Duncan MacRobert Stewart in Stronvar.' He married Janet, daughter of Alexander Stewart, 1st of Ardvorlich, and had issue: Robert Stewart of Glenogle, who was infeft in the lands of Auchanlocholithie, Glenogle and Ballinluig on 3 June 1657." The marriage between Duncan MacRobert Stewart of Glenogle and Janet Stewart of Ardvorlich, made Duncan a brother-in-law to the clan chief. In 1763, Patrick Stewart, 5th of Ledcreich, dictated his maternal family tree through the Stewarts of Glenogle. It shows the Stewarts of Glenogle originating with Robert Stewart, son of Alexander Stewart, 2nd of Gartnafuaran. Then it shows a blank generation followed by Capt. Duncan Stewart of Glenogle. As that is chronologically impossible, it is more likely that the blank intervening generation actually represents multiple unknown generations, and was simply intended to indicate that the Stewarts of Glenogle originate with Robert Stewart, son of Alexander Stewart, 2nd of Gartnafuaran. Stewart Clan Magazine reproduced the tree in graphic form in 1956 and commented that Patrick Stewart should be considered a reliable source of information on his own mother's ancestry. (Edson, George, Stewart Clan Magazine, Tome G, December 1956, vol. 34, no. 6, pp.177-179.) Duncan's patronymic makes it likely that he was the son of Robert Stewart of Glenogle. However, the chronology here is a little challenging. It's possible there is an extra generation missing in our accounting. The Ardvorlich History mentions a Duncan McRobert Stewart in Glenogle in 1628. This is the first mention of Duncan being in possession of Glenogle. In 1622 Duncan's nephew, Andrew, was in possession of Glenogle, but Andrew suffered from some unspecified troubles with the Privy Council for which he was pursued. It is our suggestion that Andrew's legal problems resulted in his inability to continue in Glenogle sometime between 1622-1628 and that Glenogle then passed semi-laterally to Andrew's uncle Duncan MacRobert. Duncan Stewart (1739) shows a "Duncan Stewart of Glenogle" at this time being married to Janet Stewart, daughter of Alexander Stewart, 1st of Ardvorlich. The Duncan Stewart in question must be this Duncan. Thus, we show that Duncan MacRobert Stewart married ABT 1620 in Balquhidder or Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland to Janet Stewart of Ardvorlich. She was born ABT 1580 in Ardvorlich, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland as the daughter of Alexander Stewart, 1st of Ardvorlich. Duncan is suggested as father of the following children, however it is not certain that Janet would be mother to all of them. The Murder of Lord Kilpont Duncan MacRobert Stewart was present on 1 September 1644 after the Battle of Tippermuir/Tibbermore in the camp of James Graham, Marquis of Montrose, when his brother-in-law and chief, James Stewart, 2nd of Ardvorlich, murdered John Graham, Lord Kilpont. On 1 March 1645, Duncan MacRobert was among those who were pardoned for the act of fleeing the scene of the murder. Those pardoned included James Beag Stewart, 2nd of Ardvorlich; his son, Robert Stewart, younger of Ardvorlich; Duncan MacRobert Stewart, 2nd of Glen Ogle; Andrew Stewart, 6th of Gartnafuaran, and Andrew's son Walter Stewart in Glenfinglas. As Duncan MacRobert Stewart seems to have come into possession of the entirety of the family's land holdings, it is our suggestion that he assigned his senior property, Glenogle, to his eldest son and his next property, Monachyle, to his second son and his next property, Auchtow, to his third son. However, these are merely guesses on our part in an effort to try to reconcile incomplete data. | Stewart, Duncan MacRobert 2nd of Glenogle and Stronvar (I16016)

|
| 2690 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, " Alexander Stewart, to whom and his brother Duncan and sisters Elizabeth and Ann, their father granted bonds of provision on 18 March 1744. He appears to be identical with the son of John Stewart of Benmore who is said to have died without children while in the West Indies." | Stewart, Alexander (I21468)
|
| 2691 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "Charles Alexander Stewart, who went out to India and served as Captain then Lieutenant-Colonel in the 16th Bombay Native Infantry before retiring to Campeltown. He married at Papworth, in December 1830, to Charlotte Jane, youngest daughter of John MacNab of Newton, and died at Bellgrove, near Campbeltown, on 22 July 1876, having had issue." "On the 14th Dec. at Papworth St. Agnes, Huntingdonshire, by the Rev. Harvey Sperling, Recotor, Charles Alexnder Steart, Esq. of the Mbombay Army, son of Duncan Stewart, Esq. of Glenbuckie, Perthshire, to Charlotte Jane, youngest daughter of the late John Macnab, Esq. of Newton , Perthshire." -- Thursday 16 Dec 1830, Saint James Chronicle, London, England. In 1861, he was residing in North Park, Campbeltown, Argyll, Scotland, employed as a Lieut. Col. [illegible] Argyll Regiment, with his wife and household servants. | Stewart, Lt. Col. Charles Alexander HEICS (I21454)
|
| 2692 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "Duncan Stewart, m. in 1730, to his sister-in-law, Grisel, daughter of David Drummond, brother of John Drummond of Colquhalzie, and sister and co-heir of her brother, John Drummond of McCorrestone, and was father of John, Alexander, Janet and Katherine." The will of Dr.David Stewart of Breanachoille, younger son of Alexander Stewart, 10th of Glenbuckie, nephew of this Duncan Stewart, refers to "his cousin Janet, being the daughter of Duncan Stewart of Torrie." That would make this Duncan Stewart the one who was of Torrie. In 1745, there were minutes of the presbytery of Kilmadock in which action was being taken to shut down a private Roman Catholic boarding school for boys. The school was run out of the house of "Mr. Duncan Stewart of Torrie." It is believed that this Duncan Stewart is that teacher as he was designated as "Duncan Stewart of Torrie" at that time. And the list of students enrolled in the school include his nephew of Glenbuckie and several other families who were closely connected to the Glenbuckie Stewarts as fellow Jacobites. https://stewartsofbalquhidder.com/2023/06/22/the-catholic-jacobite-school-in-kilmadock/ The presbytery directed Mr Duncan Stewart to cease teaching and to disband the school. They also ordered the parents of the students to cease sending their kids there. In response to this order, Duncan Stewart "left the kingdom [and has] retired to some Popish country" (presumably France or Italy). | Stewart, Duncan in Torrie (I16030)
|
| 2693 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "James Stewart of Ballado, was appointed sheriff clerk of Kinross and renounced any rights he may have to the estate of Argaty in favour of his nephew, George Home Stewart, on 21 June 1776. He m. at Edinburgh, on 3 June 1744, to Penelope, to younger daughter of David Erskine, Writer in Edinburgh, son of Alexander Erskine of Cambo, and d. at Kinross, on 19 January 1794, aged 76 years." | Stewart, James of Ballado and Sheriff of Kinross (I16599)
|
| 2694 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "John Stewart of Calziemore, had a disposition from Sir Colin Campbell of Aberuchill for the lands of Calziemore, with the ferry at Rowardennan on Loch Lomond, on 14 May 1655 and in which he is styled third son of his father. He was father of Robert Stewart of Calziemore." If so, then this John would most certainly be the progenitor of Gartnafuaran VI Branch from Stewarts of the South, namely the Stewarts of Coille Mhor (Calziemore) on Loch Lomond, as there was only one Stewart family in Calziemore in Stewarts of the South. | Stewart, John 1st of Calziemore (I21964)
|
| 2695 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "John Stewart, who, with his brother, Andrew Stewart in Gartnaferan, granted a Bond of Manrent to Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy, in 1557, and is then styled as resident at the Kirkton of Balquhidder." Duncan Stewart (1739) does not mention John Stewart in Kirkton. The Ardvorlich History incorrectly says that John was ancestor of the Stewarts of Hyndfield, but Duncan Stewart (1739) says that John's brother, Robert, was ancestor of Hyndfield. The Edward S. Gray Papers on file at The Stewart Society mention both John and Robert, but say that Robert was ancestor of Hyndfield. The Black Book of Taymouth shows that Andro Stewart in Gartnafoir, his brother Johne Stewart in Kirkton, and several other Stewarts signed a bond of 1557 for their kinsman Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy (Olar). We have no record of any descendants for John. | Stewart, John in Kirkton (I17216)
|
| 2696 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "Mary Stewart, m. Alexander Stewart, brother of Robert Stewart, 5th of Ardvorlich, (he survived her and m. secondly, in 1702, to Anna, daughter of Archibald MacGregor, alias Graham of Kilmannan), and had issue." | Stewart, Mary Heiress of Craigton (I17781)
|
| 2697 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "Robert Stewart of Calziemore, was infeft in the lands of Calziemore as heir to his father on 21 October 1710, which he disponed to Colin Buchannan, brother of William Buchannan of Auchmar, on 2 December 1717." According to the Clan Buchanan newsletter, Jan 2021: "Other historical documents discovered refer to the marriage of a daughter of William Buchanan of Auchmar to a Robert Stewarl of Calziemore or Colliemore in 1710. In 1717 Robert Stewart re-signs Calziemore to Coline Buchanan, brother of William ofAuchmar. Calziemore is an area on the eastem bank of Loch Lomond. The eastern shore of Loch Lomond is known as the Buchanan. In 1726 Coline Buchanan resigns Calziemore to Reverend John McAlpine, eldest lawful son of Donald McAlpine of Ross." | Stewart, Robert 2nd of Calziemore (I21965)
|
| 2698 | Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland. suggests that this is the Robert Stewart who resided in Culgartmore and was father of John Stewart of Calziemore who had a disposition from Sir Colin Campbell of Aberuchill for the lands of Calziemore, with the ferry at Rowardennan on Loch Lomond, on 14 May 1655. If so then this Robert would most certainly be the predecessor of the Gartnafuaran VI Branch from Stewarts of the South, namely the Stewarts of Coille Mhor (Calziemore) on Loch Lomond. Culgartmore would mean "the woods of Gartmore" and would presumably be located on the Gartmore estate in Port of Menteith parish, Perthshire, Scotland. This location is far enough west to be consistent with his son moving further west to Calziemore. This Robert also fits as the patriarch of Gartnafuaran III Branch in Stewarts of the South, known as Sliochd Rob Duibh Mhoir. It is possible that he is the patriarch of both branches through different descendants. Rob Duibh Mhor Stewart, patriarch of Gartnafuaran III Branch, is described in Stewarts of the South as being "a son of Gartnafuaran." That is, he was the son of one of the lairds of Gartnafuaran. Rob Duibh Mhor Stewart is recorded as having a "descendant" named Robert McDonachie Stewart (Robert, son of Duncan Stewart). Robert McDonachie Stewart has been identified in Callander parish records as having married in 1766 in Callander to Janet Black. As the average age of males to marry in this era was about 30 years of age, then Robert McDonachie was probably born about 1735. Since Robert McDonachie is described as the "descendant" of Rob Duibh Mhor then we must presume a gap of at least two generations between them. Otherwise the author would more likely have described Robert McDonachie as Rob Duibh Mhor's "son" or "grandson", rather than "descendant". If Robert McDonachie was probably born about 1735, then his father was probably born about 1705, his grandfather about 1675, and his great-grandfather about 1645 with an increasing margin of error with each increasing generation. Thus, we are looking for a laird of Gartnafuaran who was probably born no later than about 1675 +/-20 years. Alexander Stewart, 8th of Gartnafuaran, was having children too late to be the father of Rob Duibh Mhoir. Walter Stewart, 7th of Gartnafuaran, had a son named Robert who has already been accounted for elsewhere and could not be identical with Rob Duibh Mhor Stewart. Thus, we are looking at Andrew Stewart, 6th of Gartnafuaran as the earliest possible candidate to be the father of Rob Duibh Mhor. However, we have no record of Andrew having a son named Robert. That doesn't mean he didn't have a son, Robert; just that we have no record of any such son. However, if we go back one more generation we do find that Alexander Stewart, 5th of Gartnafuaran did have a son named Robert. Thus, we suggest that Alexander Stewart, 5th of Gartnafuaran, is the most likely candidate to be the father of Rob Duibh Mhoir Stewart. There is a small problem with the reference in Stewarts of the South where it says that Rob Duibh Mhor was a "tenant of Wester Ardchubry [in] Balquhidder parish in Strathyre[,] district of Auchlessy." There is no known property in Strathyre, nor anywhere in Balquhidder parish, named Ardchubry. However, there is a property in Strathyre called Ardchullarie which could easily have been written in 1815 as Archulary and incorrectly transcribed as Ardchubry. The reference to "of Auchlessy" is likely a reference to the family of Buchanan of Auchlessie who were probably the landlords of Ardchullarie. The sons of Rob Duibh Mhoir are not recorded in Stewarts of the South. As his father's name was Alexander then we can suggest his eldest son was probably named Alexander. Working backwards onomastically from his descendant Rob McDonachie we can suggest that Rob Duibh Mhoir probably had a younger son, named Duncan, whose line became the senior line. | Stewart, Robert Dubh Mor in Ardchullarie or Culgartmore (I18101)
