4851 Mary Stewart's birth family is unknown. She is recorded as having a brother, Robert, and being the mother of her illegitimate daughter, Elisabeth.

Elisabeth was born on 15 Aug 1729 in Glenfinglas and baptised 19 Mar 1730 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. The Callander OPR records that she was the daughter of David Stewart in Glenfinglas and Mary Stewart, "Fornacatrix according to her own confession Robert Stewart her brother is Sponsor." There is no other known David Stewart residing in Glen Finglas contemporary with this one that we are aware of who could be the father.

Contemporary Robert Stewarts in Callander at that time include:
Robert Stewart in Milton of Strathgartney and Dreppan and Mary McCruer/McCrewer (in database, unknown family)
Robert Stuart/Stewart in Blairgarry, Duart, Wester Brig o' Turk and Cuilantogle and Jean McFarlane (not in database) 
Stewart, Mary (I17768)
 
4852 Mary Stewart's mother's name is recorded as "Anna McNab". No record has been found of Mary after her birth. Stewart, Mary (I17635)
 
4853 Mary Tait married Hugh Stewart and began a family with him. They were married 17 years when he died, leaving her to raise their four surviving children on her own. Her son, Leonard, took over the family grocery store after his father's death. In 1921, Mary was living with her daughter Jean and son-in-law, Tom Brown, in Hamilton. She outlived her husband by over 40 years and outlived five of her six children. Tait, Mary (I19065)
 
4854 Mary was a nun at the Convent of Mercy, New York, USA. (Nelker) Steuart, Sister Mary (I22312)
 
4855 Mary was born 6 months after her parents were married. Stewart, Mary (I21389)
 
4856 Mary was born after the 1871 census and is not found with her mother in 1881. She is presumed to have died in childhood. Stewart, Mary (I17751)
 
4857 Mary was born in 1833 in Whitecross, Coldingham, Berkshire, Scotland as the youngest of Robert Ord and Mary Edgar's nine children. In keeping with Scottish custom, she was named after her mother following the death of her same-named older sister.

In 1850, Mary immigrated to Canada with her parents and siblings.

In 1851, at age 18, Mary Ord was residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada with her parents and brother, Andrew. Her place of birth is erroneously given as England.

Mary is presumed to have married about 1857 to David Pattie, although no record of their marriage has been found.

In 1861, at age 27, Mary was residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, with her husband David, a carpenter, and their young children, John and Mary.

What happens next to Mary is somewhat of a mystery. In 1871, Mary and David's children were residing with their uncle, Andrew Ord, with no sign of Mary or her husband, David. In 1877, their son, John, immigrated to Texas, USA. A year later, in 1878, their daughter, Mary, marries in Puslinch. The service is held in Andrew Ord's home. David later appears in records in Dallas, Texas, USA with his son, John, and David died in Dallas in 1899. It is not known why David was not with his children in Canada in 1871. Mary is not found in 1871, or any later census records, or any records at all. No record of her death has been found in Canada or the USA. There is no record of her being in Texas with her husband. She simply vanishes.

The only plausible explanation that I can determine is that Mary Ord died shortly after 1861 and her husband David moved to Texas where it appears he may have had cousins or other extended family and attempted to establish a new life for himself. Once established, his son John joined him, but his daughter may have already been in relationship with her soon-to-be husband, and thus elected to remain living with her uncle Andrew Ord.

As Mary's last known descendant died in 1975, the mystery may remain unsolved. 
Ord, Mary (I12183)
 
4858 Mary was born in 1860 in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada as the only known child of David Petty and Mary Ord. As no further records are found of her parents after Mary's birth, it appears that Mary may have been orphaned.

In 1878, Mary married in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada (at the home of her uncle Andrew Ord) to Malcom Mclarty, younger brother of her cousin (by marriage), Archibald Mclarty. Thus, her cousin, Margaret Black (daughter of Margaret Ord) became her sister-in-law. Malcolm was also the younger brother of Andrew Ord's wife, Flora Mclarty, thus her aunt Flora became her sister-in-law.

In 1881, at age 20, Mary was residing in nearby Galt, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada with her husband Malcolm Mclarty, a labourer. They had no children.

In 1886 or 1887 (sources conflict), Mary and her husband Malcolm Mclarty moved to Breckon, Pierce, Washington, USA.

In 1892, at age 32, Mary was residing in Pierce, Washington, USA with her husband Malcolm and his brother Archie Mclarty. (Washington State and Territorial Census)

In 1910, at age 50, Mary was residing in Sillwater (Vader), Lewis, Washington, USA with her husband Malcolm, a farmer. They have no children. Her cousin/sister-in-law, Margaret (Black) Mclarty, lived nearby.

In 1920, at age 59, Mary was residing in Stillwater (Vader), Lewis, Washington, USA with her husband Malcolm, a farmer. They have no children.

In 1930, at age 62, Mary, a widow, was residing in Stillwater (Vader), Lewis, Washington, USA in the home of her cousin/sister-in-law, Margaret (Black) Mclarty

In 1940, at age 80, Mary, a widow, was residing in Vader, Lewis, Washington, USA, on her own.

On 13 Jan 1944, at age 84, Mary died in Vader, Lewis, Washington, USA, presumabely in the home of her cousin/sister-in-law Margaret (Black) Mclarty. Her death record mistakenly gives her father's name as John Pattie (Petty). As her closest living relative at the time was likely a child of her cousin Margaret (who died in 1841), it's likely that the informant was uncertain of Mary's father's correct name. In her will, she left her house and contents to her second cousin, Margaret E. Groeau in Vader, Washington, USA.

------------
According to the late Anna Jackson (Puslinch Historical Society), Malcolm Mclarty and Mary Pattie had a son, Malcolm, who married Ethel Laughlin and they had a daughter, Alice. Historical records do not support Anna Jackson's claim. Census records do not show Malcolm and Mary with any children. There are no birth records of any children for them. It appears that Malcolm "Junior" was actually a nephew, not a son, and that his father was James Mclarty. 
Pattie, Mary (I12309)

4860 Mary was illegitimate and bi-racial. Her father, Jamie Stewart, younger of Ardvorlich, was a plantation foreman overseeing carpenters in Jamaica. Her mother Sarah was enslaved to the family of Francis Christian of St. Thomas, Jamaica. Mary was sent in 1789 as a baby to her uncle William Stewart of Ardvorlich, living in Breadalbane at the time, with no warning and little explanation. In his accompanying letter, her father, Jamie, refers to Mary as "the Jamaican breed of livestock." Jamie send along three jugs of Jamaican rum and offered to take any of William's male bastard children in exchange. William sent Mary to live with her aunt, Jean Stewart, widow of Robert MacNab of Dundurn, who raised her. Mary later moved to Glasgow with her adopted family where she died in 1827. (Stewarts of Ardvorlich, Vol. 2., pp. 54, 63, 64.) Stewart, Mary (I24241)
 
4861 Mary was not living with her parents in 1901. She may have been married and living elsewhere, or may have died by that date. Stewart, Mary Ann (I17755)
 
4862 Mary was residing with her parents in 1814. Stewart, Mary (I17742)
 
4863 Mary was still an infant when her parents and siblings immigrated from England to North American and settled in Massachusetts. Bacon, Mary (I530)
 
4864 Mary was the only child of her parents to be born back in Elgin county, Ontario, Canada, after her parents had moved to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Census records indicate that she grew up in Toronto.

In 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901, Mary is found in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, residing with her parents.

In 1902, at age 35, Mary married to widower, George Street. He was a Singer sewing machine salesman, originally from New York, USA, who had been living and working in Hamilton City and Norfolk County, Ontario, Canada. It is not known how they met. Their marriage took place one day after her brother Henry's wedding. George had 6 children from a previous marriage. George was residing in Rochester, New York, USA, at the time of their marriage to. He is recorded as a widower on the marriage record. Mary and George had no known children together.

In 1905, Mary and George were residing in Rochester, Monroe, New York, USA, where George was originally from. They had no children residing with them.

In 1910, George W. Street was residing in Brooklyn, New York, USA, and recorded as a widower. Mary was not with him. She has not been located in 1910.

George died in 1915 in Rochester, New York, USA.

4866 Mary's baptism indicates that her father, James, was a farmer in Godmanchester, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. St. Anicet was part of Godmanchester at the time.

Mary Stewart is buried in Zion United Church Cemetery, Dundee, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. 
Stewart, Mary (I17765)
 
4867 Mary's baptism is mis-transcribed in the IGI as "Mary Hastter". Horsley, Mary (I7877)
 
4868 Mary's baptism was witnessed by Alexander and Henry Shaw both in Row. Stewart, Mary (I17745)
 
4869 Mary's baptism was witnessed by Robert McLaren and Robert STEWART both in Callichat. McLaren, Mary (I10491)
 
4870 Mary's birth is not confirmed. Census records indicate she was born about 1820 in Kilmadock. There is only one Mary Stewart listed in the Kilmadock OPR within 5 years of 1820 and that is Mary Stewart, born 28 Nov 1819 and baptized 5 Dec 1819, daughter of James STEWART and Catharine BUCHANAN in Doune. Witt. The Congregation Stewart, Mary (I17648)
 
4871 Mary'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, Mary (I17761)

4885 Matilda Stewart's birthdate is estimated based on her father's estimated date of birth. Her birth location is not known. She was born around the time that her father acquired the lands of Baldorran in 1457, so she may have been born at Baldorran or she may have been born somewhere in her great-grandmother's lands of the Lennox. She married William Edomonston, 1st of Culloden and Duntreath. Stewart, Matilda (I17822)
 
4886 Matilda was christened "Edith" but changed her name when she got married because she thought her the Norman barons might not accept a queen with a Saxon name. Her marriage to Henry I represented the union of Norman and Saxon royal lines. NicMalcolm, Matilda (I11784)
 
4887 Matthew had two daughters, Mary and Hannah. According to IGI records it appears that he had these daughters by two different mothers. In 1861, just a couple of months prior to the birth of Matthew's first daughter, Mary, by a mother named Mary, Matthew is found living at Plashetts Farm, Northumberland, with the Dagg family, who have a daughter named Mary who is the same age as Matthew. It is suggested that she is an obvious candidate to be the mother.

It appears that Matthew then had a second daughter, Hannah, by a mother named Margaret in 1862.

In 1871 these two daughters are living with Matthew's parents

No marriage record has been found for either of these marriages. 
Bell, Matthew Michael (I985)
 
4888 Matthew was the informant at his brother Alexander's death in 1923. McCulloch, Matthew Howie (I9824)
 
4889 Matthew's baptism is mis-transcribed in the IGI as "Matthew Hortler". Horsley, Matthew (I7879)
 
4890 Matthew's birth is not confirmed. His marriage shows his parents as "David and Sarah McCullough." They are not found in the 1851 census. Matthew's marriage was witnessed by David McCullough, presumably Matthew's brother, not father. McCullough, Matthew (I9882)
 
4891 Maud was a member of the UCW at Calvary UCC in Hamilton. She is not related to my other Jones family from Bolton, Lancashire, England. Jones, Maud Edith (I8359)
 
4892 Maude was born late to her parents, presumably just days after the 1881 census when they were living in Collingwood, Simcoe, Ontario, Canada.

In Dec 1885, at age 4, Maude immigrated with her parents and siblings to Tacoma, Washington, USA, where her father founded the Tacoma Business School.

In the 1892 Washington State Territorial Census, Maude was residing in Tacoma, Pierce, Washington, USA with her parents and siblings. All members of the family were employed as teachers except Maude who was a student.

In the 1893, 1895 Tacoma Directory, Maude is listed as a student.

In 1897, at age 16, Maude is listed in the Tacoma Directory was being an assistant at the Tacoma Business College.

In 1900, at age 19, Maude was residing in Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA with her widowed mother and older sister. She was employed as a teacher. Her borther John L Tait and his family lived next door.

In 1910, at age 27, Maude was residing on Belden Ave in Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA, with her widowed mother and sister. She was employed as a bookkeeper in an oil company.

4893 Maurice is styled as "beloved cousin" to Robert Stewart, Steward of Scotland and Earl of Strathearn. Drummond, Sir Maurice 1st of Concraig (I5214)
 
4894 Maxwell served in the Royal Canadian Air Force and was lost at sea while being transported to England when his boat was sunk by a German U-Boat. Prior to serving in the RCAF he was a high school teacher in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada.

Obit:
Pilot Officer Maxwell MacLean Stewart
January 12, 1 942
Loss of S.S. Yngaren, Royal Canadian Air Force
Service Number C/8536
Ottawa Memorial, Ottawa, Ontario. Age 35
Son of Mr. A.M. Stewart, Grimsby, Ontario
Max Stewart was one of the most popular teachers at Chilliwack Junior Senior High School. Stewart was held in high regard at the University of British Columbia, where he starred in rugby and track and was the president of the men's athletic association in his senior year. While at the University of British Columbia, Max Stewart joined the Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity. He came to Chilliwack as a teacher in 1934 and enlisted in the R.C.A.F. with two other teachers, Neill MacGregor and Allan Kirkby. At the time of his departure, Max received tremendous applause from several hundred pupils and friends. Max lost his life, January 12, 1942 when crossing the Atlantic, aboard S.S. Yngaren, in transit from Halifax, Nova Scotia to the United Kingdom. The Yngaren was part of a convoy HX. 168 that left Halifax, Nova Scotia, January 2, 1942 and fell victim to the German U-43 commanded by Wolfgang Lüth. Identified as a straggler, the Swedish steamship Yngaren weighed 5,246 tons and was sunk by torpedo 600 miles west of Ireland. Six passengers were killed. Wolfgang Lüth sunk 46 merchant vessels, 1 warship and damaged two others during the war and was decorated with the Knight?s Cross with oakleaves. He was accidentally shot and killed by a sentry May 13, 1945. Max Stewart is commemorated on the Ottawa Memorial, Ontario. He was the son of Mr. A.M. Stewart of Grimsby, Ontario.

4895 May be the Ellen who married James Mumford. Prangley, Eleanor (I12671)
 
4896 May is found in 1841 and 1851 residing at Upper Hythie with her mother. In 1861 she is found residing at Upper Hythie in her own cottage and working as a stocking knitter. May never married nor had children. Stewart, May (I17841)
 
4897 May's baptism was witnessed by Archibald McFarlane and Patrick Ferguson, both in Buchany. As "May" is a nearly unheard of name in the district, it seems likely that this is a transcription error for "Mary." If so then the only feasable marriage for her in Kilmadock would be 27 Jan 1804, 10 Feb 1804, James, COLBERT, Kilmadock, Mary STEWART, Kilmadock. Stewart, May (I17829)
