|
| 4654 | Margaret is shown in the Kennedy Tree as being "of Boquhapple" but her connection to the Boquhapple family cannot be reconciled with either MacGregor or Stirnet and must be considered suspect. | Graham, Margaret (I7174)
|
| 4655 | Margaret is the sister of Drummond-Enoch who was shocked by the severed head of her brother delivered to her door by the MacGregors. Comrie gravestone transcriptions give only one death date for both Margaret and Alexander. It is possible that they both died the same year, 1618, or the date may refer only to Alexander Stewart. | Drummond, Margaret of Drummonderinoch (I5228)

In 1908, Margaret wrote a letter to her niece Christina Margaret McIntyre (daughter of her older brother, John Lorne Stewart McIntyre) in which she describes the family of her maternal grandfather, James Og Stewart. This letter is now known as "The McIntyre Letter - 1908." | McIntyre, Margaret (I10174)
|
| 4660 | Margaret Miriam Angus was born in 1874 in Castle Ward, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. In 1881 and 1891 she lived with her parents. In 1901, at age 27, she was residing with her sister Elizabeth Stockton. She has not been found in later records. | Angus, Margaret Miriam (I387)

Her death registration incorrectly shows her place of birth as Perthshire, Scotland. Her birth family was originally from Perthshire, but the youngest four children, including Margaret, were born in Campbelltown, Kintyre, Argyllshire, Scotland. The informant was her nephew, Duncan McInytre. | Stewart, Margaret (I17552)

|
| 4667 | Margaret Stewart was born in 1798 in the clachan of Morell, Easter Glentarken, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland. The Comrie OPR records her place of birth as "Moril." Her parents seem to have varied from the traditional Scottish naming custom by naming her after her paternal grandmother, Margaret Mclaren, instead of her maternal grandmother, Elisabeth MacNab. Margaret may have been married firstly to Duncan McGregor in Comrie. (A possible first marriage for Margaret: Margaret STEWART, Sex: F, Marriage(s): Spouse: Duncan MCGREGOR, Marriage: 5 Feb 1819, Comrie, Perth, Scotland. This is the only marriage listed in the parish church register in Comrie for a Margaret Stewart married between 1815-1835.) Margaret married in 1826 in Gorbals (Glasgow), Lanark, Scotland to William McCallum. They had several children born in Glasgow up to 1832 and their next child was born in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada, in November 1834. In 1842, Margaret is found listed under her husband,William Callum, residing on Queen Street, Barton District, Gore (Hamilton City), Wentworth, Ontario, Canada, in a residence owned by a landlord named Patrick? Alexander. (His exact name is difficult to read.) William was employed as a carpenter. Two listings away in a residence owned by the same landlord (possibly a multi-apartment dwelling) was John Stewart, also a carpenter, believed to be Margaret's younger brother. Around the corner on York Street, is another of Margaret's younger brothers, Duncan Stewart. In 1851, Margaret is found in St. Mary's ward, Hamilton City, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her husband, William McCallum, a carpenter, and children. Her place of birth is shown as "Comray" (sic, Comrie). Also residing with them is her 5-year-old orphaned nephew, James Stewart, shown as born in Puslinch (son of Robert Stewart). St Mary's ward was located in the northwest of old Hamilton, in the area including York Street, Queen Street, St. Fillan Street, Ardvorlich Street, Lochearn Street, and Dundurn Castle. In 1858, the Hamilton City Directory shows Margaret and William McCallum residing on Broadway between Queen and Ray streets. William was employed as a carpenter. Broadway Street has not been identified on any old Hamilton maps. It is either an error or the street has been renamed. It is presumed to be in the area of Napier Street. In 1861, Margaret (age 60) and William McCallum (age 80) were residing in St. Mary's Ward in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada (the exact street address is not given). Their daughters Marion (age 18) and Elizabeth (age 25) were residing with them. William was employed as a carpenter. In 1875, the Hamilton City Directory shows Margaret and William McCallum residing at 113 Napier Street, near the corner of Queen Street iabout a block from where they were located in 1842. William was employed as a carpenter. Margaret has not been found in 1881. In 1891, widowed Margaret McCallum was residing with her daughter, Elizabeth, and her husband, Robert Stewart, in Ward 7, Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada. She died mere weeks after the census was taken. | Stewart, Margaret (I17264)
|
| 4668 | Margaret Stewart was born in 1812 in Dunblane (probably Greenloaning), Perthshire, Scotland. About 1818, when Margaret Stewart was about 6 years old, her parents and siblings left Scotland and came to Canada. They are believed, but not confirmed to have settled initially in Ste. Martine, Huntington, Quebec, Canada, where, in 1825, a census record has been found that matches her parents' family. About 1832, at age 20, Margaret Stewart is presumed to have married in North Monaghan, Peterborough County, Ontario, Canada, to Richard Lillico, although no record of their marriage has been found. They began having a family together in North Monaghan in 1833. In 1851, at age 40, Margaret Lillico, just recently widowed, was residing in Easthope, Perth, Ontario, Canada, with her children, living not far from her parents. (Her entry is four pages away from her father's entry in the census.) In 1861, at age 48, Margaret Lilllico was residing in a frame house in Easthope, Perth, Ontario, Canada, as a widow with her children. Also residing with them was her nephew, Titus Craven (12). They were living next door to her widowed father, Daniel Stewart, who was residing in a log cabin with Titus' brother, Charles Craven (10) residing with him. (Find-a-Grave has a gravestone transcription entry for Margaret and her husband Richard Lillico, but shows an incorrect birth date and incorrect parents for her.) | Stewart, Margaret (I26136)
|
| 4669 | Margaret Stewart was born in 1867 in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada. Her parents moved the family to Chicago, Illinois, USA when Margaret was a young child. In 1870, Margaret was residing in Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA with her parents. They later returned to Hamilton. In 1881, 1891, and 1901, Margaret was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her parents and siblings. In 1905, Margaret married James Muir, a bridge and building inspector. They continued to live with Margaret's parents for a time. In 1911, Margaret was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her husband in the home of her parents. Her husband James was employed as a bridge and building inspector. In 1921, Margaret was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her husband. They were in their 50s and had no children. He was employed as a labourer. Margaret and James continued to live out their lives in Hamilton. They are buried in the family plot in Hamilton Cemetery with her parents and siblings.

|
| 4670 | Margaret Stewart was never married to William Douglas. George Douglas was illegitimate. | Stewart, Margaret (I17670)
|
| 4671 | Margaret Stewart's mother was identified as "Cathr. McArthur" at Margaret's baptism. Margaret is not mentioned in The Stewarts of Ardvorlich Vol. 3 and is presumed to have died young. | Stewart, Margaret (I17468)
|
| 4672 | Margaret Stewart, m. John, Lord of the Isles, (Papal Dispensation dated at Avingon, on 18 July 1350), and to whom Robert II. granted a charter for the Isle of Colonsay, the lands of Lochaber and the middle-part of Knapdale on 6 June 1377. They had issue. (MacGregor) | Stewart, Margaret Lady of the Isles (I17698)
|
| 4673 | Margaret Stewart, second wife of Finlay McIntyre is believed to be the daughter of Robert Stewart in Lochearnhead, however this is far from proven and there are other possible contenders for Margaret's birth. This birth is preferred as Finlay belonged to the McIntyres of Carnlia whose family frequently married with Stewarts of Dalveich descendants. | Stewart, Margaret (I17467)
|
| 4674 | Margaret was believed to have been born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, but this is not confirmed. | Smith, Margaret Charlotte (I14537)
|
| 4675 | Margaret was born in Glasgow just after her parents immigrated from Belfast, Ireland. Margaret was only 12 years old when her father, William Hunter, died prematurely. Margaret was raised by her mother and step father, Thomas Gilliland. However, strangely, no mention of Thomas was preserved in Janet Duncan's family history. Margaret married in Glasgow to Robert Duncan and had a family there. They immigrated to Canada in 1914 to bring their son Bill to Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children to be treated for polio. Maggie was reputed to have long earlobes "from her kids pulling on her earrings". Maggie is believed to be the only one of this family who immigrated to Canada. LDS birth registration incorrectly records her mother's name as Hartel: Margaret HUNTER, Sex: F, Event(s): Birth: 17 Apr 1868, Bridgeton, Glasgow, Lanark, Scotland, Parents: Father: William HUNTER, Mother: Margaret HARTEL | Hunter, Margaret Harton (I8135)
|
| 4676 | Margaret was born in Tremore, County Tyrone, Ulster, Ireland, however no such place has been found. It may be a corruption of Dromore in Omagh parish, or Tremoge in Termonmaguirk parish. Margaret came from a very poor family. All but one of her brothers died in the Crimean War. We know that Margaret could not write as she only made her mark on her daughter, Margaret's, birth registration. The marriage record for Margaret and her second husband, Thomas Gilliland, indicates that her parents' names were William & Mary Harten. However, Harten family correspondence confirms that Margaret's parents were David Harten and Mary Ann Jackson from Belfast, Ireland. The error in the marriage record was likely caused by Thomas Gilliland giving the testimony and mistaking his wife's living in-laws for her deceased parents' names. As Margaret presumably could not read as well as write then it is presumed she did not notice the error. | Harten, Margaret (I7750)
|
| 4677 | Margaret was predeceased by 5 of her 9 children. | McIntyre, Margaret (I23601)
|
| 4678 | Margaret was presumably named after her deceased older sister. It was a common Scottish practice to re-use the name of a deceased child when naming later children in order to preserve that name in the family, especially if the child was named after a parent or grandparent in accordance to custom. Margaret never married. (Becky Evoy, person correspondence) In 1861, Margaret is found residing in Bayham Township, Elgin County, Ontario, Canada, with her parents and several siblings. She is listed as "M.C. Stewart." | Stewart, Margaret Christina (I17669)
|
| 4679 | Margaret was residing in Callander at the time of her marriage. | Stewart, Margaret (I17585)
|
| 4680 | Margaret was residing with her husband in Callander Village, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, in 1841, 1851, and 1861. In 1871, she is found in the same residence living alone as a widow. She has not been found in 1881. No burial record has been found. Two possible births can be found for Margaret, one as daughter of Robert MacNab in Dundurn and the other as daughter of James MacNab in Callander. Both fit. Name Margaret Mcnab Birth 28 Oct 1785 Baptism 30 Oct 1785 Callander,Perth,Scotland Father James Mcnab Mother Janet King | McNab, Margaret (I21766)
|
| 4681 | Margaret was residing with her parents in 1841. Family records indicate she immigrated to Australia with her siblings. Several online trees indicate that she died a spinster on 20 Oct 1882 in Walbundrie, Greater Hume Shire, New South Wales, Australia, which is where her sister Jean is also buried. However this has not been confirmed. | Stewart, Margaret (I21562)
|
| 4682 | Margaret was the daughter of McMean, the forester of Glenartney. Some sources confuse Balmenoch's mother and wife. I follow MacGregor. | McMean, Margaret (I10674)
|
| 4683 | Margaret was the only one of the triplets to survive to adulthood. | Stewart, Margaret (I17265)
|
| 4684 | Margaret was the second child and only daughter of William Stewart and his first wife, Catherine Colvin. Her date of birth is unknown. Her parents married sometime after immigrating to North Carolina in 1739. Margaret's birth is estimated to be around 1748. Margaret married a man surnamed Spiller who was a lawyer from Ireland. According to family records (below), unbeknownst to Margaret, Spiller was a bigamist and was already married with a family of children back in Ireland whom he had abandoned there. When his first family subsequently followed him to American and located him, he then abandoned Margaret and returned to his first wife. Tragically for Margaret this may have led to a serious falling out with her father. Whether he viewed her as damaged goods or for some other unknown reason, she was virtually excluded from her father's will. He left all her siblings significant portions of his estate, but to Margaret he left only one shilling. A single shilling seems worse than if he'd left her nothing at all and appears to be a blatant snub. Interestingly, he uses the phrase "I give and bequeath" for all his children in his will except Margaret for whom he says only, "I give." Later in the will, her father indicates that if any of his other daughters should die without heirs then their portion of the estate should be divided among the rest of their sisters, except for Margaret, whom he explicitly excludes from inheriting anything other than the single shilling. Despite being abandoned by her bigamist husband, when she died, she left her remaining possessions to him. In 1763, Margaret's uncle, Patrick Stewart, dictated a detailed family tree, subsequently added to by Dr. James Carraway in 1789 and others, in which Margaret is described as: "Margaret married Spiller, a lawyer of North Carolina, but who came originally from Ireland, where he had left a wife and two or three children, which circumstance was wholly unknown to her. She lived with Spiller a very unhappy life for several years, when his wife and daughters arriving from Ireland, they were separated, and she died not long afterwards without issue." Margaret's will was probated in Oct. 1797, so she would have died shortly before that. --------- The Last Will and Testament of Margaret Stewart Spiller (Transcribed by Jennifer Riley Stewart) The will of Margaret Spiller of the town of Fayetteville. Made in the presence of Cornelius Wingate, Mrs. Wingate his wife Gillespie and John Dillon of this town. The said Margaret Spiller having been for a considerable time very sick but of a sound and disposing memory and understanding called upon the said persons and declared in the following manner. The said Margaret, having previously sent for the above named John Dillon he came to her house and called to him to come near her and inquired often for Mr. Spiller and being answered he was sick in the countryside and could not come she said he would not see her alive and said she was gone. She willed as thus two negroes boys Sterling and George to her brother’s natural son and that her just debts be paid and herself decently interned at either Sampson or her father’s and on being asked by Mrs. Wingate which of the places she chose to be interned at she answered at her father’s, her wearing apparel to her sister Betsy and then her property real and personal to go to Mr. James Spiller to do as he choose with it and desired the said John Dillon to take care of everything that none be missing until his return. John Dillon of the town of Fayetteville maketh oath that the within writing contains the verbal will of Mrs. Margaret Spillers made in her last sickness and by him committed to writing and although Mrs. Spillers languished for some time afterwards, she did not appear to be disposed to make any other will until her death. Sworn to as subscribed in presence of X Jn Dillon D M Auslein (?) JP 30 July 1797 Recorded in Book A, State of N. Carolina, October 1797. The Noncertified Will of charge Spiller was presented in court by Thomas Davis proven by the oat of John Dillon and Mr. Wingate. Ordered to be recorded. ? Munsford C.C. (Possibly Robinson Munsford) who appears in the 1800 census of Fayetteville. Notes: Cornelius Wingate - (Abt. 1755-1810) lived in Fayetteville, N.C. and is buried in Cross Creek Cemetery #01, Fayetteville, Cumberland, North Carolina. He remarried in 1807 in Fayetteville so apparently Gillespie had died. There were several John Dillons in the area I’m not sure which one is mentioned in the will. I believe D.M. Auslein could be Duncan McAuslin who appears on the 1800 Census of Fayetteville. She leaves two Negro boys to her brother’s natural son this probably refers to her brother Captain Patrick Stewart who had one son Walter Stuart. Her sister Betsy would be Elizabeth Stewart Ventress. It appears that her husband was: James Spiller (b. ABT. 1745 • Ireland) (d. 1799 in Cumberland County, N.C.) Will Date: 12 May 1798 Probate Date: 1799 Probate Place: Cumberland, North Carolina, USA Inferred Death Year: 1799 Inferred Death Place: North Carolina, USA Item Description: Original Wills, Reeves, William J - Waddill, Thomas | Stewart, Margaret (I17404)
|
| 4685 | Margaret was the widow of John Campbell, 2nd of Lochdochart. DCR: "Stewart, Steuart, or Stuart, Margaret, sister-german to the deceased Patrick S., merchant in Edinburgh, first married to ... . Campbell, of Lochdochart, and thereafter to David S., brother to Robert S., of Ardvorlich 12 Jun 1750 " | Stewart, Margaret of Fungorth (I17697)
|
| 4686 | Margaret was widow of Andrew Drummond, 6th of Belliclone. Online sources indicate she was 34 when she married Alexander MacGruther. | Campbell, Margaret (I2325)
|
| 4687 | Margaret's age in 1851 is given as 24. | Stewart, Margaret (I17452)
|
| 4688 | Margaret's baptism date is uncertain. Her baptism is not recorded in the church baptismal records, but the request for baptism is recorded in the session minutes. The date shown here for her baptism is the date the request was approved by the session. In 1881 Margaret was living in Hamilton with her sister and brother-in-law, Mary & Hugh Stewart, along with two of her brothers, David and Robert. Robert Tait and Hugh Stewart were partners in Tait & Stewart Grocers. Granddaughter Margaret Stewart Ritter described her as "a tiny peaceable woman, with huge sunken eyes, and a long mane of thick wavy gray hair done up in a bun. Her feet were so small that she never could find women's shoes to fit her, so always wore black patent-leather slippers in little girl's sizes -- the kind of shoes that used to be called "Mary Jane's". She ruled her masculine household with gentle iron, was always dererred to and respected. She seldom showed her affection for anyone -- a pat on the head or shoulder was the most she would allow herself." | Tait, Margaret Anne (I19062)
|
| 4689 | Margaret's baptism was witnessed by John McFallan? In Buchany and John King in Kairn According to a descendant, Margaret married a McNabb. Likely Archibald McNab who married on 3 Jan 1818 in Kilmadock to Margaret Stewart. | Stewart, Margaret (I20765)
|
| 4690 | Margaret's baptism was witnessed by John McFarlane and Charles Stewart both in Doune. | Stewart, Margaret (I17559)
|
| 4691 | Margaret's birth family is not known. It seems likely that she came from the eastern side of Balquhidder parish as she married into a Stronslany/Strathyre family. Onomastics suggests her father's name was likely Alexander, Robert, or possibly Duncan. Possible matches for Margaret's birth include: Margaret Stewart, bap 2 NOV 1767 in Wester Achtow, daughter of Robert Stewart and Margaret Feguson. (This seems the most likely candidate based on geography and is so far unaccounted for in our database.) 1772 Janr 3d Duncan Stewart and Anna McLaren in Wester Auchtow had a child baptized and called Margaret. (This candidate is least likely for onoastics.) 1774 Aprile 14th Alexr Stewart and Anna Fisher in Blarchrioch had a child baptized and called Margaret. (This candidate is unlikely as she's at the far west end of Balquhidder parish.) An outlier possibility is: 1765 March 3rd Patrick Stewart and Christian Stewart in Lichscridan had a child baptized and called Margaret. | Stewart, Margaret (I17553)
|
| 4692 | Margaret's birth family is unknown. She may have been connected with the Tullibardine family, but no certain connection is known. | Murray, Margaret (I11635)
|
| 4693 | Margaret's birth information comes from family records. She is not found in the Callander OPR. Two of Margaret's children, William and Elizabeth, are referenced in her brother's will, however no birth records for such children can be found. There is a contemporary match for a family with the same names in Comrie parish whose children are shown here. It is not confirmed that the Comrie births are the same family. | Stewart, Margaret (I17498)
|
| 4694 | Margaret's birth is not yet known. The following births are possible matches: 16 JUL 1732 in Balquhidder, d/o Robert McLaren and Margaret McLaren 19 OCT 1735 in Balquhidder, d/o Patrick McLaren, no mother 29 OCT 1739 in Balquhidder, d/o John McLaren and Mary McKinley (only child) 17 OCT 1742 in Balquhidder, d/o Malcolm McLaren and Mary Fisher Potential births in Comrie parish still need to be researched. The Statistics from the Annexed Estates for Western Strathearn (1755-56) lists the following persons residing in Easter Glentarken: Easter Glentarken - Duncan McNab, Donald King, John Ferguson, Patrick McLaren, John Carmichael, Patrick Drummond, and four cottars - twelve families. Patrick McLaren would be an excellent candidate for the father of Margaret. Margaret's only son, Robert, named is fourth son, Peter, which could a nod to his own possible maternal grandfather. | McLaren, Margaret (I10453)
|
| 4695 | Margaret's birth is uncertain. The following entry in the Balquhidder OPR is suspected to be from this family. "1744 DEC 16, Robert Steuart and ___ Steuart in ~ Comrie parish had a child baptised called Margaret." It is suggested that Robert Steuart, living in Ardveich, or possibly now living in Glen Tarken, having been born in Balquhidder parish may have returned to Balquhidder for the baptism of his daughter Margaret or it may simply have been recorded in the Balquhidder register. | Stewart, Margaret (I17415)
|
| 4696 | Margaret's birth record says she was "conceived in fornication" as the illegitimiate daughter of Duncan Roy Stewart, servitor to the miller of Edinample and Janet Coskerack in Wester Achtow. | Stewart, Margaret (I17584)
|
| 4697 | Margaret's brith is recorded in one census record as being in St. Anne parish, Stirlingshire, Scotland and in another census record as being in Bannockburn, which is in St. Ninian parish. In 1851, Margaret was residing with her husband and children in Chapel Croft, Cambusbarron, St. Ninians, Stirlingshire, Scotland. Her husband's death record indicates that he immigrated to Australia in 1852 and died there in 1859. As family records indicate that Margaret did immigrate with her husband then it would appear that she returned to Scotland after her husband's death. In 1861, Margaret was residing in Chapel Croft, Cambusbarron, St. Ninians, Stirlingshire, Scotland with her daughters Christina (25) and Isabella (22), as well as 18 year old niece, Jane McKenzie Stewart (b 1843 in St. Ninians, Stirlingshire, Scotland. As this is an exact match for her daughter, Jane, and no matching niece has been found in any other census or birth records, it appears the 1861 census transcription is in error and this is either Margaret's daughter or a niece by an unknown sister who married a Stewart.), and 14 year old niece, Margaret McKnig (McKnight). In 1871, Margaret was residing at 74 Port Street in Stirling, Stirlingshire, Scotland with her daughters Christina, isabell and Jane. She is also shown living with James Jean, born 1827 in Stirling, Stirlingshire, Scotland, employed as a tailor. As he does not match with this family it may be that he was either from a prior marriage or he is a son-in-law. In 1881, a matching census record has been found for Margaret Stewart, age 80, born in St. Ninians, Stirlingshire, Scotland, seamstress, residing at 71 Main Street, St Ninians, Stirlingshire, Scotland along with her sister, Elizabeth Hodge, age 70, born St. Ninians, Stirlingshire, Scotland, It is not confirmed that this is the same Margaret Stewart. | Rue, Margaret (I21538)
|
| 4698 | Margaret's exact place of birth is not recorded in the Kincardine OPR however her parents were recorded in the OPR at the time of their marriage as residing on the Moss and at the baptism of their son John in 1806 they are recorded as residing on the Moss. As such it is presumed that they were residing on the Moss for the intervening years also. | Stewart, Margaret (I17582)
|
| 4699 | Margaret's father died when she was only one year old. She is found in 1911 residing with her remarried mother. | Angus, Margaret (I23577)
|
| 4700 | Margaret's first husband, William Thomas Harrison, died in Feb 1895 when Margaret was five months pregnant with their future child. Their son, named after his father, was born postumously in June of that year. In 1901, at age 28, widow Margaret E Harrison was residing at 6 Brough Court, St. Leonard's Gate, in St. Ann's Parish, Lancaster, Lancashire, England with her parents and two siblings as well as her son William. She was employed as a cotton winder. In October 1901, Margaret Harrison married in Lancaster, Lancashire, England, to Thomas Townley. In 1911, at age 38, Margaret Harrison was residing at 1 Ramparts in Lancaster, Lancashire, England with her second husband, Thomas Townley, and her children from both marriages. | Angus, Margaret Ellen (I384)
