| 2701 | Elizabeth Ann Bell died on 5 Jul 1895 in Houxtey Bankhead just three days after her sixteenth birthday from bronchial pneumonia. (Although her death registration indicates that she was 14. The informant was her father, Luke Bell.) | Bell, Elizabeth Ann (I29666)
|
| 2702 | Elizabeth died in childhood. | Steuart, Elizabeth (I21492)
|
| 2703 | Elizabeth died without marrying, age 20 years, 5 months. 1851 census wrongly lists her birthplace as England. | Tait, Elizabeth (I18728)
|
| 2704 | Elizabeth died young. (Nelker) | Thorndike, Elizabeth (I21746)
|
| 2705 | Elizabeth Ellen ("Aunt Pellen") and Joseph remained in England. | Liptrot, Elizabeth Ellen (I9027)
|
| 2706 | Elizabeth is not found in the 1881 census and is not recorded in Janet Duncan's notes. It is presumed she died young. | Duncan, Elizabeth (I5203)
|
| 2707 | Elizabeth is not found in the Balquhidder OPR. Around 1876, Elizabeth MacMillan and her husband David Brown sailed to Williamsburg, New Brunswick, Canada. In 1881, Elizabeth MacMillan and David Brown are found residing in York, New Brunswick, Canada, with her widowed mother Catherine MacMillan. They returned to Scotland some time later. They had no children. | McMillan, Elizabeth (I10445)
|
| 2708 | Elizabeth is not recalled by Janet, thus it is presumed that she did not live to adulthood. | Hunter, Elizabeth (I7929)
|
| 2709 | Elizabeth is only found residing with her parents in 1861. The family has not been located in the 1851 census and she is not with her parents in 1871. She may have been married or deceased by 1871. | Liptrot, Elizabeth (I9026)
|
| 2710 | Elizabeth is presumed to have died young prior to the birth of her same-named sister in 1776. | Stewart, Elisabeth (I15407)
|
| 2711 | Elizabeth is recorded as "Elizabeth Ardincaple". It is believed she was actually Elizabeth MacAuley of Ardincaple, a cadet branch of Clan Gregor. | MacAuley, Elizabeth in Ardincaple (I8769)
|
| 2712 | Elizabeth is recorded as being already deceased in the 1873 Donald Stewart Family Tree but she was not listed among her parents' living children on her mother's death registration in 1855. She is also not found in any census records. Thus she was born after 1851 and died before 1855. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I15649)
|
| 2713 | Elizabeth is recorded by MacGregor as a daughter of Sir Robert Erskine of that ilk, but it is not entirely clear which Sir Robert that is. The father suggested here is a best guess. It is chronologically possible for her to be the daughter of this Robert, but not by his known wife. Perhaps she is the daughter of a previous unknown marriage, or perhaps she is the sister of Robert, rather than his daughter. | Erskine, Elizabeth (I5425)
|
| 2714 | Elizabeth married in 1783 to John MacDiarmid in Dunan and had issue. Their descendants are beyond the scope of this research project. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I15639)
|
| 2715 | Elizabeth married William "The Bold" Douglas, Lord of Douglas, and, by him, was mother of "The Good" Sir James Douglas, Lord of Douglas, who was Robert The Bruce's most loyal supporter. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I15414)
|
| 2716 | Elizabeth McAulay was born about 1716 in Bealachardend, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland, as a daughter of John McAulay and Catherine Stewart, although no record of her baptism has been found. Elizabeth Stewart is found listed with her parents John McAulay and Catherine Stewart, in the 1717 Buchanan Parish Examination Roll residing at Bealachardend. The occupants listed are: "Jo: McAula, Katherine Stewart, Elizabeth McAuala." Elizabeth McAulay is presumed to be their daughter. Bealachard is located between Arrachiemore and Manse. | McAulay, Elizabeth (I30866)
|
| 2717 | Elizabeth Mure is a shadowy figure of whom little is known. At the time Elizabeth and Robert married, Robert was still only Earl of Strathearn; thus, although Elizabeth became Countess of Strathearn, she was never queen of Scots, since she died before her husband ascended the throne. From the fact that Robert married again in 1355, we must infer that Elizabeth had died by that date. The Mure family had held the estate of Rowallan in Cunningham, Ayrshire, Scotland from the thirteenth century. Elizabeth bore Robert nine children. Their marriage was initially declared "non-canonical", that is, not recognized as valid by the Roman Catholic Church. The reason for this declaration is not recorded. Some speculate that it was because they married in the Celtic tradition rather than the Roman Church. However this could be mere modren romantic fondness for Celtic Christianity. Robert recognized this would cause him power troubles in the future, so, in 1347, he and Elizabeth married for a second time, but this time in the Catholic Church and papal dispensation legitmized their children. Questions later arose about the validity of the legitimization and the children of Robert's second marriage contested the legitimacy of the later reigning House of Stewart. | Mure, Elizabeth of Rowallan (I11369)
|
| 2718 | Elizabeth Stewart died in childhood and is buried in Fintry cemetery with her parents. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I26348)
|
| 2719 | Elizabeth Stewart is estimated to have been born about 1685 in Callander parish, Perthshire, Scotland, however her exact date and place of birth are unknown as her birth predates the commencement of the Callander parish register. It is suggested, but not confirmed, based solely on the location of her daughter's birth, that Elizabeth Stewart may be descended from the Stewarts in Torrie and Brackland. Elizabeth Stewart is presumed to have married John McBeth, however no record of their marriage has been found as it predates the commencement of the Callander parish register. Elizabeth Stewart and John McBeth had a daughter Marrian McBeath on 10 Jan 1712 in Easter Brackland, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. As the Callander parish register did not commence recording baptisms until 1710 it is possible, if not likely, that Elizabeth Stewart and John McBeth had other children prior to 1710 whose names are not recorded. Nothing more is known of this family. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I29736)
|
| 2720 | Elizabeth Stewart is named in 1766 in the petition of her mother on behalf of her brothers, Alexander and Donald Stewart, who were named as executors to the late Dr. David Stewart in Breanachoile, but were in Jamaica at the time of David Stewart's death and were unable to appear as executors. Thus James Stewart, Younger of Tarr, was appointed Factor in their stead. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I27777)
|
| 2721 | Elizabeth Stewart married Daniel McKerrichar. The lived at Mill of Torr, just west of the Blair Drummond Moss, where Elizabeth grew up. They had a family of five children. Elizabeth died at age 40 giving birth to their fifth child. | Stewart, Elisabeth (I23545)
|
| 2722 | Elizabeth Stewart married in 1859 to James Milne, a cooper, and lived in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, where they had a family of five children. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I27169)
|
| 2723 | Elizabeth Stewart may be a sister to James Stewart of Tar. (No, his father, Duncan Stewart, was born in 1708. But she could be his father's sister, if she had a son, James from a previous relationship.) In 1799, Elizabeth's son, Alexander Stewart in Shenachyle, is identified as a tutor for the children of the deceased Alexander Stewart of Duniverig (son of James Stewart of Tar). As tutors are usually close relatives and as these two men are not paternally related, it is possible that this Alexander's mother, Elizabeth Stewart may be a sister to James Stewart of Tar. --- The deceased Alexander Stewart in Duniverig is mentioned in a 1799 legal action by Allan Stewart, flesher in Glasgow, in which his widow is named as Jean MacGregor and his children are identified as Duncan, John, James, Henry, Gregor and Alexander. The children had the following tutors - Alexander Stewart tenant in Shenachyle, and John McNab Writer to the Signet. (National Records of Scotland CS271/34341) | Stewart, Elisabeth (I15403)
|
| 2724 | Elizabeth Stewart never married nor had children. She lived her whole adult life with her widowed father until his death and then with her sister Margaret.

|
| 2728 | Elizabeth Stewart was born 2 Mar 1853 in Wester Dullater, Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland to Archibald Stewart and Janet Buchanan. In 1861, at age 8, Elizabeth Stewart was residing at Mollandhouse, Lotts of Callander Village, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, in the home of her grandmother Isabella Buchanan (nee Doig). In 1871, at age 17, Elizabeth Stewart was residing at Edra, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, with her parents and siblings. She was employed as housekeeper. Elizabeth Stewart has not been confidently identified in later records. Some online trees claim she married in 1875 in Glasgow to John Sinton and then moved to England, but this is not confirmed. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I15439)
|
| 2729 | Elizabeth Stewart was born 21 Feb 1841 in Shenachyle, Port of Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, as the daughter of Duncan Stewart and Magdalene Stewart.

|
| 2730 | Elizabeth Stewart was born 22 Apr 1793 in Harperstown, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland, as a daughter of Robert Stewart and Agnes Kirkwood. Elizabeth Stewart has not been identified in later records. Nothing more is known of her. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I31012)
|
| 2731 | Elizabeth Stewart was born 26 Mar 1715 in Easter and Under Brackland, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, as a daughter of John Stewart and Elizabeth McLaren. She is believed, but not confirmed, to be the Elizabeth Stewart who married on 25 Jan 1732 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, to Archibald Buchanan. They had nine children. According to Stewarts of the South, the property of Torrie was owned by a family of Buchanan during the 18th century. It is likely, but not confirmed, that Elizabeth's husband, Archibald Buchanan, may have been connected to that family. Transcripts of the children's births have not been obtained to determine their exact birth location within the parish. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I15642)
|
| 2732 | Elizabeth Stewart was born 26 Mar 1749 in Burn of Cambus, Kilmadock, Perthshire, Scotland, as a daughter of Donald Stewart. Her mother's name is recorded as Isabel Ferguson, but there is no other birth for such a couple. Donald's two other daughters' mothers were Agnes Ferguson. Isabel's name is believed to be a clerical error and that the correct mother's name should be Agnes Ferguson. Her baptism was witnessed by Donald King and Alexr Stewart in Burn of Cambus. Elizabeth Stewart has not been identified in later records. Nothing more is known of her. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I31294)
|
| 2733 | Elizabeth Stewart was born about 1752 in Craignuchty, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland, as a younger daughter of Walter Stewart and Isobel Graham, although no record of her baptism has been found. On 5 Jul 1776, Elizabeth Stewart married in Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland, to George Graham in Mill of Drummond. Her marriage record identifies her as "daughter of the deceased [blank] Stewart in Craignuchty." This allows us to identify her as the daughter of Walter Stewart in Gartmore and Craignuchty and the younger sister of Andrew Stewart in Craignuchty. "1776 July 5th George Graham at the Miln of Drummond and Elizabeth Stewart, daughter of the deceased [blank] Stewart in Craignuchty listed in order to proclamation of... [entry is cut off at the bottom of the page." (Drymen Parish Register) Elizabeth Stewart and George Graham had four children. All four children are listed as born in "Miln of Drummond" with no witnesses named. In 1801, Elizabeth Stewart is identified in the testament of Duncan Stewart in Kerse of Leckie, as "widow of the late George Graham residing at Mille of Drummond" and as being an executor and amongst the closest kin to the deceased. Her exact kinship is not identified and, as such, is presumed to be further distant than daughter. Otherwise she would have been identified as the deceased's daughter, not nearest kin. It is believed that she was a great-niece and that the deceased Duncan Stewart was her paternal grandfather's brother. It is unusual for the time period to have only four children. As we know that Elizabeth lived until at least 1801 when she was described as a widow, then it is suspect that George Graham may have died c. 1787. | Stewart, Elizabeth in Craignuchty (I29976)
|
| 2734 | Elizabeth Stewart was born about 1816 in Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland (according to census records) to unknown parents. Elizabeth is suspected but not confirmed to be the Elizabeth Stewart born 15 Sep 1820 in Barony, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, daughter of John Stewart, cow doctor, and Margaret Waddell, and sister to James Stewart who became a watchmaker in Glasgow.

|
| 2743 | Elizabeth was 22 years old when she was baptized. It seems likely that she was baptized at the time of her wedding. | Furler, Elizabeth C. (I6493)
|
| 2744 | Elizabeth was born after her family immigrated to the USA. Her birth date is estimated to be about 1744 based on her age at her time of death. She was presumably born in Bladen County, North Carolina, USA, although no record of her birth has been found. In 1763, Elizabeth's father, Patrick Stewart, 5th of Ledcreich, dictated a detailed family tree, subsequently added to by her nephew, Dr. James Caraway, in 1789, and, at an unknown date by her nephew-in-law, Dr. Morgan Brown, in which Elizabeth is described as: "Elizabeth, the youngest daughter of Patrick Stewart, married James Stewart, by whom she had five children: Catherine, married to Thomas Caraway; James, living in the Mississippi State; Elizabeth, married to William Jordan; Margaret, married to Pope and lives in South Carolina; Charles, who joined the patriots in Mexico and has not been heard of since." Elizabeth, the youngest daughter of Patrick Stewart, married James Stewart, by whom she had five children: Catherine, married to Thomas Caraway; James, living in the Mississippi State; Elizabeth, married to William Jordan; Margaret, married to Pope and lives in South Carolina; Charles, who joined the patriots in Mexico and has not been heard of since. Stewart Clan Magazine in 1935 says, "James Stewart... married his cousin (sic), Elizabeth Stewart, daughter of Patrick Stewart of Brown's Marsh. He perhaps lived for a time in that part of Bladen county which was set off as Robeson county [cf. Charles, B:171]. Children: Catherine: m. Thomas Caraway; James Caraway: lived in Mississippi; Elizabeth: m. William Gordon; Margaret: m. _____ Pope : lived in South Carolina; Charles: joined the patriots in Mexico [1810] and was never heard from." (Edson, George, Stewart Clan Magazine, Tome C, June 1935, vol. xii, no. 12, pp.125-126.) In a later 1957 article, Stewart Clan Magazine says: "Elizabeth Stewart, born about 1744, married James Stewart, her cousin. (sic) The biographical sketch written presumably by Morgan Brown spoke of Elizabeth as "youngest daughter of Patrick Stewart" and gave the names of her five children, with a bit about them, such as "James Carraway Stewart, living in Mississippi,"* but said no more about Elizabeth or her husband, except to state that they were cousins. "As this James was not the son of William, brother of Patrick, he may have been a brother -- or even cousin -- of Thomas Stewart, who married Elizabeth's sister Margaret, for their mutual affiliation with the Carraway family is indicative of that. The earliest trace of this James Stewart+ in the land records was when he bought Dec. 19, 1766, of Joseph Clarke, for 220 pounds, 292 acres of land along the banks of Cape Fear River, on the southwest side, in Bladen County, and Pat. Stuart and Peter Broades signed as witnesses. The purchase money may have been supplied by Elizabeth's father as a dowry, for that was about the time she was married to James Stewart. Old Patrick Stewart stuck to the spelling Stewart, and it may have been William's son Patrick, of Tory leanings, who signed as a witness. Young Patrick and James may have been hobnobbing together, since the arrival of a considerable number of Highlanders who had been in the fighting of 1745-6 had stirred up a political commotion in the localities where they settled. Liberal grants of land were made to the erstwhile 'rebels', and each grant was so worded as to impress upon the recipient that it was bestowed directly by the gracious hand of his majesty, the King of Great Britain. It irked the old-timers, as if they were looked upon as the tagrag and bobtail of the population. "James Stewart sold July 22, 1775, to John Slingsby of Wilmington, New Hanover County, for 268 pounds, the 292 acres on the Cape Fear River, which he had bought Dec. 19. 1766, of Joseph Clarke. "After the defeat of the Tory militia at Moore's Creek Bridge on Feb. 27, 1776, James appeared as a land-owner in Robeson County, between Sept. 17, 1777, and Oct. 10, 1787, by purchase or patent under the state government, until he owned six or seven tracts of land, mostly on Drowning Creek and Ashpole Swamp. He died or disappeared before 1790, for the census of that year showed Elizabeth Stewart, 0-3-1 [0m>16, 3m<16, 1f]; that is, no man over 16 years of age, three boys under 16, and one woman, including the head of the family. "In 1795 Elizabeth brought a suit of attachment against James' property, and as a result the sheriff sold July 18, 1795, 200 acres of his land on Drowning creek to Thomas Carraway, who conveyed it to Elizabeth on Nov. 16, 1795. Thereupon Elizabeth -- signing her name Stuart -- sold the place Nov. 23, 1795, for 60 pounds, to John Davis, who was living on the place at the time. On Aug. 20, 1800, James Stuart of Adams county, Mississippi Territory, deeded to Thomas Carraway of Cumberland county and Charles Stuart of Robeson county, for $2000, his interest in the six tracts of land in Robeson county, totaling 960 acres, which had belonged to his father, James Stewart. Witnesses to this deed were James Carraway, Hugh McLachlan and C. S. Carraway. Thomas Carraway++ and Charles G.
