| 4551 | Louise May Stewart was born in 1895 in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada. She was 6 years old when her family moved in 1901 to Teeswater, Bruce, Ontario, Canada. She was 11 years old when her mother died prematurely of causes possibly related to childbirth. In 1911, she was residing in Teeswater, Bruce, Ontario, Canada with her widowed father and younger siblings. In 1920, she married in Teeswater to John William Hendry. In 1921, she was residing in Teeswater, Bruce, Ontario, Canada, with her husband in the home of her father and younger siblings. As most public records are not available later than 1921 at the time of writing this, it is not known if Louise and John had any children. Nothing further is known about them. | Stewart, Louisa May (I17828)

| 4555 | Lt. Col. Dr. George Home-Steuart of Argaty, Dep. Sec. of Maryland, Mayor of Annapolis Dr. George Home-Steuart's birth is not recorded. It is most likely that he was born at his family's estate of Ballachallan in Kilmadock parish, Perthshire, Scotland, on the border between the Highlands and Lowlands. His exact date of birth is not known, though American records estimate it to be about 1700. He was born into a staunchly Jacobite family and would have been raised to speak both Gaelic and English (Scots). As a younger son, he was not destined to inherit the family property of Ballachallan from his father. As such, he trained to become a medical doctor and graduated from the University of Edinburgh. In 1721, George immigrated to Annapolis, Maryland, USA. Why? We do not know, though it may have been to escape the political unrest after the failure of the 1715 Jacobite Uprising or that he felt he had better financial prospects there. In Maryland, he established his medical practice, became a slave plantation owner and an influential local politician. George was connected by friendship and marriage to the family of the Calvert Barons Baltimore, who founded and ruled the province of Maryland. He benefited greatly from Calvert patronage and eventually amassed a significant land holding of over 4000 acres in Anne Arundel County in Maryland. In 1742, the teenaged Benedict Swingate Calvert, illegitimate son of Charles Calvert, 5th Baron Baltimore, was sent from England to live with George Steuart. Benedict Calvert's future daughter, Elizabeth, would, in 1780, go on to marry George Steuart's son, Dr. Charles Mark Steuart. In 1747, George Steuart purchased the estate of Dodon in South River, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, on the Chesapeake Bay, from Stephen Warman for £40 Sterling and £262 Maryland. At Dodon, Steuart farmed tobacco and and propheted enormously from slave labour. He also took up horse racing. Horse racing became popular among the Maryland aristocrats. Future president George Washington was one of the participants and was a guest in George Steuart's home. (Wikipedia) On 22 July 1747, George received a visit in Maryland from Alexander Stewart, footman to Prince Charles Edward Stuart, who had been transported to Maryland as a rebel. Alexander wrote, "Dr Stewart, and his brother William, both living in Annapolis, and both brothers to David Stewart of Ballachallan in Monteith, Scotland, who were all my loyal master's fast friends." (Paton, Henry, The Lyon in Mourning, Vol. 2, Edinburgh, 1905, p. 242) Through the patronage of the Calvert family, Steuart went on to hold the following offices and positions of influence: Appointed Lieutenant-Colonel of The Horse Militia under Governor Horatio Sharpe (1753) Deputy Secretary of Maryland (1755 to 1756) Mayor of Annapolis, two terms, (1759-1761 and 1763-1764) Judge of the Land Office (1755-1775) Member of the "Council of Twelve." Judge of the Court of Admiralty. Commissioner of the Loan Office, Steuart's grandson, Richard Sprigg Steuart, wrote:"When [my grandfather, George Hume-Stewart] went over [to England] in 1764, to take my father [James Steuart] to school, he was commissioned by a number of Marylanders to call upon Lord North, England's new Chancellor of the Exchequer, hostile to America, on his way through London, and make representations on the subject of taxation. He was politely received and the minister put a great many questions to him, and seemed to acquiesce in all he said. [...] At all events my Grandfather had the pleasure soon after to hear of the repeal of this obnoxious tax" (Wikipedia) On 9 Sep 1768, George received a disposition from his brother, David, for the lands of Annat, Ballachallan and Argaty. (A disposition was a contract naming the recipient as the guaranteed heir of the properties.) George inherited these lands on his brother's death on 9 Nov 1774 (not in 1758 as per Wikipedia). This caused an immediate dilemma for George. The Boston Tea Party had already taken place a year earlier. The First Continental Congress met just weeks prior to George's inheritance. Talk of Revolution was very much in the air. George's personal loyalty leaned towards the Crown. He had lived through the failed Jacobite Uprising of 1715 and would have heard horrific stories from back home about the failure of the 1745 Rising.He knew just how the British Government treated rebels. Now he was facing the same prospect in Maryland. He was personally acquainted with George Washington and other leading revolutionaires. He was 75 years old and too old to fight. If he supported the revolution then he knew he would forfeit his newly acquired estates in Scotland. But if he supported the British Crown and the rebellion succeeded then he knew his Dodon estate in America would likely be confiscated. Thus, he skillfully sought to play both sides. in 1775, he took his eldest son George with him to Scotland to take possession of Annat, Ballachallan and Argaty, granting Annat and Ballachallan to his son, George, and keeping Argaty as his own residence, while leaving Dodon to his wife. As Richard Sprigg Steuart recalled: "He was an ardent admirer of the American Colonies, and believed the principles for which the colonists contended were just, and truly English. But though he sympathised with his American friends, he said he could not turn rebel in his old age, being 75 years old when the Revolution broke out...he would have forfeited [his Scottish estates] if he had joined the Revolutionists. He therefore went over to Scotland and saved his property there. He gave all his estates in Maryland to his wife [Ann], telling her by letter...how to leave the property in America, which was finally done." (Wikipedia) His strategy appears to have worked as his family kept all their estates, though he never saw his wife and younger children again. He died in Scotland in 1784. His wife Ann died in Maryland in 1814. Some sources claim that George and Ann had two unrecorded children who died in infancy prior to the birth of their first recorded son, George in 1747. No documentary sources have been found to confirm this claim. The Steuart farm at Dodon, Davidsonville, Maryland, USA, is still family owned, though they only have about 550 acres left.

| 4556 | Lt. James Steuart was a brother to Sir John Steuart, Valet to Prince Charlie. RA SP/MAIN/467 f. 152-154 Contains a series of letters exchanged from February to April 1773 from Col. Grant of Blairfindy, one of the highest ranking jacobite officers in service in the French army at the time. He informed Lord Cayll, Prince Charlie's secretary and main advisor at the time, of having used the name of the King over the Water to recommend for a promotion and for receiving the Order of Saint Louis, lieutenant James Steuart, brother of John Steuart, the Prince's valet. The recommendation was addressed to Louis François, marquis de Monteynard, Secretary of State for War, who -in the words of Blairfindy- kept in great esteem Charles and always called him King when speaking with Blairfindy. In virtue of such recommendation the Marquis complied, obtaining from King Louis both graces required and promoting Steuart to the rank of captain. Monteynard specified “the consideration of the protection of Prince Charles Edward have mainly determined those two dispositions by His Majesty”. However, Lord Caryll reprimanded Blairfindy for having used the King’s name of his own initiative and without the formal consent of the Jacobite court, especially in a time in which Versailles was not supporting the Cause adequately. Lieutenant James Steuart was here described as a veteran of the 1745, having served in Keppoch's battalion and was currently serving in the scottish Ogilvy's regiment (Regiment Ecossois d'Ogilvy, note you will find from various sources that the regiment had been incorporated in 1762 in the Regiment irlandais de Clare, but this seems to be incorrect). James was, at least at the time, evidently a Catholic being otherwise not eligible to the Order of St Louis (for protestant in the French service there was an equivalent honour which was "the protestant cross"). I've consulted No Quarter Given, the Muster Roll of Prince Charlie's Army, but for Keppoch's regiment are known to have served only three Stewarts man, all named John, all having surrendered themselves to the Government forces in May 1746. I think none of them is related with John or James.

Anyway Steuart is described as "eretico" (heretic) meaning he was a protestant. Such decription is no more present from 1773 when he married and evidently converted to catholicism. His date of birth remains quite uncertain given the contradictory ages registered, but it's for sure to be located between 1715 and 1726. James wrote his Last Will on 1.IX.1791, but it has not been possible to find it in the archives where it should have been deposited. (Stefano Baccolo) | Stewart, Lt. James (I25486)

| 4564 | Luke Angus was born illegitimately in 1787, allegedly fathered by John Parker, a husbandman in Bleasdale, just south of Wyresdale. Luke only lived for a year. He was predeceased by his mother by two weeks. | Angus, Luke (I23433)
|
| 4565 | Luke Bell came from a long line of shepherds and farm labourers. The 1881 census shows Luke and Annie living with their two daughters in a grocer's shop in Houxty Bankhead, Wark on Tyne, Northumberland. Luke is working as an agricultural labourer and as a local Methodist preacher. In 1891 Luke was working as an Insurance Agent and still living at Houxty Bankhead. Luke was also a musician. It is believed he was an organist as a book of his church organ music survives today. In 1901 Luke was living in Fearby, Yorkshire with his wife and daughter Emma. Luke was working as a Road Surveyor. Luke's daughter Frances was keen to emmigrate to the New World, but Luke was not interested in emmigration. Shortly after Luke's death his two surviving daughters and his wife immigrated to Canada. Luke died between 1901-05, but his death record has not been found. | Bell, Luke (I973)

|
| 4577 | MacGregor indicates Donald was a natural son, so his real mother is unknown. Donald served in the Appin Regiment during the '45 and was presumed killed at the Battle of Culloden on 16 April 1746. From Stewarts of the South: "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 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." Stewarts of the South has confused David's two sons. David's lawful son, James, was born to Margaret Stewart of Fungorth (Balled). It was David's natural son, Donald, who was believed to be slain at the Battle of Culloden. Family records show Donald did not actually perish at Culloden, but fled to Hythie in Aberdeenshire where his descendants lived for a further 100 years before emigrating to England and Canada. Robert Stewart Clark of Guelph, Ontario, Canada had an "In Memoriam" card as follows: "In affectionate memory of John Stewart, son of Alexander Stewart of Aberdour, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, great-grandson of Donald Stuart (sic) of Ballochallan, Perthshire, Governor of Doune Castle for Prince Charles Edward 1745...." Recollections from Donald's great-grandson, George Stewart (1799-1882), include: "I can remember that when I was a very little boy, my father told us that his grandfather was a laird; and lost his land by joining Prince Charles; and wandered about from place to place with our grandfather (then a boy) to conceal themselves until at last they settled at Hythie some time after the rebellion was over.... I was told that the name of [the former estate] was "Bally-hallen" and that it was in the mouth of the highlands." This recollection fits well with the story of Donald Stewart and picks up on the confusion with the Stewarts of Ballachallan. George goes on to conclude that his ancestor was "Donald Stuart, governor of Doune Castle" for Prince Charles during the '45 and was "the last Stewart laird of Ballachallan near Doune". One look at the correct family of Ballachallan will show the connection to Ballachallan to be impossible. However, the reference to "governor of Doune Castle" is consistent with Donald Stewart, son of David Stewart, Forester of Glen Finglas and Governor of Doune Castle, who was son of James Stewart, 4th of Ardvorlich and Governor of Doune Castle. Later in George's letters he indicates that Donald Stewart was buried in the churchyard at Fetterangus without any monumental stone to mark the spot. | Stewart, Donald 1st in Hythie (I15851)
|
| 4578 | MacGregor indicates that Alexander died unmarried without children. Nowhere is Alexander recorded as "2nd in Balmeanach" however his date of death post-dates his father's death and thus he must have been next in line ahead of his brother Robert to inherit Balimeanach. MacGregor indicates that he sold the lands of Ballimeanach to Robert Stewart (3rd) of Ardvorlich, on 2 January 1682. It is unclear if the property of Balimeanach then went to Alexander's younger brother, Robert, thus we now style the later families as "in" Bellemeanoch rather than "of" Ballemeanoch. Alexander had no children. | Stewart, Alexander 2nd of Balimeanach (I15042)
|
| 4579 | MacGregor says Andrew was sent to England as a child as a hostage to ensure his father's loyalty and died in childhood. Other sources saySir Andrew Stewart, a "younger son", who married the daughter of James Bethe (or Beith) and was decorated with a military sword-belt by King John II (1350-1364) of France. His mother is uncertain. [Wikipedia] | Stewart, Andrew (I14973)
|
| 4580 | MacGregor says, "Margaret Stewart, m. James Haldane, second son of Patrick Haldane, 1st of Lanrick, (he was killed in a house fire caused by accidentally having fallen asleep reading by candlelight in January of 1727). They had issue." | Haldane, James of Lanrick (I7437)
|
| 4581 | MacGregor says, "[Robert Stewart, Apothecary in Doune, had issue] Alexander Stewart, who was a subtenant of the lands of Greenock." (Greenock is located on the River Teith between Torrie and Callander.) The Kilmdaock OPR shows no entries for an Alexander Stewart residing in Greenock in the right time-frame and fathering children. The closest is the following baptism entry: "12 May 1745, James, son of Alexander Stuart and Margaret McEwan in Wester Torrie, Witt. Alexander Stuart and Robert Forrester there." But there are other Stewart branches recorded as being in Torrie at this time. This Alexander is presently considered to be the best candidate to be the Alexander Stewart who later resided in Powblack of Frews and was father to the later Robert Stuart of Annat-in-Rait. This suggestion is based on circumstantial evidence only. | Stewart, Alexander in Greenock (I21764)

| 4584 | MACLEAN, KENNETH Guelph’s senior member of the Bar passed away in the General Hospital, age 76, at half past six on Thursday evening, January 13, 1921. On Tuesday the 4th, he took ill at his office and went home in a taxi cab, calling at the doctor’s on the way. On Friday following, pneumonia developed and he was moved to the hospital. On account of his age, from the first, there was much anxiety as to the outcome, though his careful manner of life always, and his well preserved physique, lent hope. On Wednesday morning, this hope was strengthened for a brief period by an apparent change for the better. The improvement was but fleeting, however. Later in the day, he grew worse. He was son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Neil MacLean, natives of Invernesshire, Scotland who came to Puslinch, concession 7, front lot 20, about a mile west of Aberfoyle, in 1848. When they sailed their little family consisted of three daughters and a son, Kenneth, then about 3 years old. The baby girl, younger than he, died at sea. On this farm, they continued to live until their death, the family being in the meantime increased by the addition of another daughter and two sons. There Kenneth spent his boyhood and was educated at Aberfoyle School under the late Mr. Weir, later attending Dr. Tassie’s school at Galt and Guelph Grammar School. He articled at law under Lemon and Peterson and later completed his legal studies at Osgoode Hall. He was admitted to the Bar in 1873 and became a partner with Lemon & Peterson until 1881, when he removed to Toronto for five years, where he joined the firm of Blake, Kerr, Boyd and Cassels. He returned to Guelph in 1886 and opened his own office. Mr. MacLean occupied a prominent position among the legal fraternity in Guelph and was known to the profession and the public alike as a wise counsellor and an honourable gentleman, worthy of the utmost trust. In his student days, Mr. MacLean came to be one of the best known young men in Guelph almost as soon as he moved there, as he played as centre fielder with the original Maple Leaf Baseball Cub. He was on the 1869 Canadian Championship team. Both the Maple Leafs and Guelph were known, as the result of their successes, by lovers of baseball throughout Canada and the U.S. Locally, the players were regarded more or less as heroes and their names were household words in the community. Though Mr. McLean did not continue to play after his student days, he was a great believer all his life in the efficacy of outdoor exercise. He was a great walker and until very recent years, might be met daily on some of the country roads about Guelph. Apart from his home and office, his chief activities were in the church to which he belonged, St. Andrew’s. Since 1890, he has been an elder and was, at the time of his death, also a trustee. He took an intelligent interest in all public affairs and exercised an influence distinguished by common sense and uprightness. In politics, he was an ardent Liberal and a worker in all elections. He was married in 1877 to Kate, elder daughter of Rev. W. S. Ball, of Knox Church in Guelph. She predeceased him in June 1916. Two sons survive, Douglas, a barrister, of Edmonton; and Gordon, an accountant in the Bank of Commerce in Guelph, with whom he resided at the parental home, 40 Spring Street, since 1916. The funeral, from his residence on Tuesday at 3 to Guelph Cemetery, was largely attended. The service was conducted by Rev. H. E. Abraham of St. Andrew’s Church. A large representation from the legal fraternity of the city and out of town relatives present were: George Ball of Toronto; Mr. A. S. Ball and Miss Bessie Ball of Woodstock; Joseph ...(line illegible) ... and A. A. McTavish of Parkhill; Neil Stewart, Mr. and Mrs. H. Stewart and Miss Stewart of Morriston. Pallbearers: J. M. Duff, Col D. McCrae, Col. John Davidson, Joseph Brown, J. I. McIntosh and Nicol Jeffrey. --- Information from the death certificate: Born in Scotland in 1843. --- Information from the marriage certificate: Son of Neil MacLean and Mary McKenzie. | McLean, Kenneth (I10693)

| 4585 | MACLEAN, RODERICK At Los Angeles, CA, on the 26th August 1911. Brother of Kenneth MacLean of Guelph. Puslinch was his native place. He studied law in Guelph, went west to Manitoba about thirty years ago and from there to Vancouver, BC, where he resided for the last few years. His health failed last winter and he went to Los Angeles. He had a stroke of paralysis about the end of July, which finally resulted in his death. --- Son of Neil MacLean and Mary McKenzie. | McLean, Roderick (I10700)

| 4587 | Mae Angus grew up in Hamilton, Ontario. While attending Delta High School in Hamilton, She began dating the foorball quarterback from the rival Central High School, Pete Gow. These high school sweethearts later married and began their family in Hamilton. They later moved to Burlington, Ontario where they raised their two sons. Mae worked for a few years as a secretary. Like the rest of her family, Mae was an avid card player, especially bridge. Card playing seems to be in the Angus blood. If you were ever fisting the God household and inquired after a deck of dards, they had decks stored in every room of the house, and could quickly come up with a couple of dozen to choose from. Mae and Pete were also both avid golfers and curlers. | Angus, Ethel Mae (I474)

|
| 4591 | Magdalen is listed in the Munro History as being a daughter of David Cuthbert of Drakies and Jean Monro. No baptism record has been found for her. Magdalen's sister Ann's will also shows Ann as the sister-in-law of Rev. Thomas Chisholm, minister at Kilmorack, and aunt of John and Thomas Chisolm. Chisolm family records show Rev. Thomas' wife to be Magdalen Cuthbert. Magdalen's date of birth is merely estimated here. | Cuthbert, Magdalen (I3540)

| 4592 | Maggie and William were married late and appear to have had no children. | Taylor, Maggie (I19133)
|
| 4593 | Maggie died at age 6 of inflamatory croup. Ontario birth registry gives her middle name as McFarlane. I have no record of a McFarlane ancestor. This is an interesting lead. Maggie appears in the 1881 census in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada, as an infant with her parents and siblings. | Stewart, Maggie Ann McFarlane (I17279)
|
| 4594 | Maggie never married. She inherited her father's estate. In 1911 she is shown living with her mother at 75 Clincart Rd, Langside, Glasgow. | Stewart, Margaret Stewart Dewar (I17700)
|
| 4595 | Magnus succeeded as King of the Isles, although history does not record his predecessor. Nor are any of the earlier Kings of the Isles known. They were Norwegian Jarls, but their identities are not recorded. In 973 Magnus formed an aliance with Kenneth III, King of Scots and Malcolm, King of the Cumbri for mutual protection. He was succeeded by Gille Domnan, but it is not known if they were father and son, or related at all. | Isles, Marcus of the (I8061)

| 4596 | Maj. John Stewart succeeded his father to the estate of Ardvorlich in 1918. He was the author of a substantial three-volume history of the Stewarts of Balquhidder. | Stewart, Major John Alexander MacLaren 14th of Ardvorlich (I17196)
|
| 4597 | Majke Crispell is not shown in the Niagara Census of 1783 when her husband Jacob Furler was discharged from service with Butler's Rangers. 1790 and 1800 census records would seem to confirm that Majke had died. Majke had a brother named Hendricus, which may account for the introduction of the name Henry into the descendants of this family. It seems unusual that an 18 year old Jacob Voller would marry a 30 year old Majke Crispell. Crispell family records show that Majke married this Jacob's father, presumably as a second marriage. However, their son Jacob's baptism records the child Jacob as the son of "Jacob Jr". So, for this Jacob to be the same Jacob who married Maria Catharine Ackerman would require that he was the father of a previously undiscovered Jacob. | Crispell, Majke (I3063)

| 4598 | Malcolm fought with the Bruce at the Battle of Bannockburn. He introduced the use of caltraps to the Scottish army, which helped defeat the English heavy cavalry. Because of this victory the image of a caltrap became part of the Drummond heraldic crest. | Drummond, Sir Malcolm 10th of that Ilk (I5100)

| 4600 | Malcolm Gray's notes show this Elizabeth as having married Peter Stewart in Cuilantogle, son of Duncan Stewart and Mary McKinlay. However that Elizabeth is shown in The Ardvorlich History as being the daughter of Robert Ban Stewart in Auchnahard. Malcolm has confused the two Elizabeths. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I16092)
