| 4952 | Joseph Smalley does not give his father's name at his wedding. It is blank. He's found in 1871 residig with a Smalley sibling with parent Joseph and Margaret Daniels, but he is shown as their son, and the name Daniels is written over top of what looks like Smalley for Joseph Sr. Thus it is suggested that these are the correct parents. | Smalley, Joseph (I20208)

| 4953 | Joseph Stuart, born 24th March 1798, only son of John S., DD, minister of Luss; educated at University of Glasgow; licensed by the Presbytery of Dunbarton 3rd Dec 1822; presented by John, Marquess of Bute, in January and ordained (at Scoulaig) 11th May 1825; died unmarried 1st Sept. 1826.

| 4954 | Joseph, 4 (John, 3 Robert, 2 Walter, 1 ) b. in Londonderry, N. H., Jan. 17, 1721 ; m. June 1, 1747, Margaret Thompson who d. subsequent to 1770 ; he m. 2d, Hannah Hescock who d. in 1824 (?). Prior to 1752 he removed from Londonderry, N. H., to Colrain, Mass., and came into possession of lot No. 43, upon which he lived. It was located well under the protection of Fort Morrison, to which the family resorted in time of danger from Indian raids, and where he, doubtless, served as defender under Capt. Israel Williams in 1756, and again under Capt. Samuel Wells in 1759. He was chosen one of the fence viewers in 1756; chosen fence viewer and collector in 1757 ; in 1760 he was chosen to manage the affairs of the town; March, 1768, he was chosen assessor but refused to take the oath ; in 1757 he sold the south half of lot No. 44, to Alexander Thompson bounded north by land of John Thompson and south by his own land ; in 1762 he sold land in the second division to James Anderson Thompson; March 15, 1770, he sold his homestead but the family seem to have been living in the vicinity of Colrain until 1773. After this date they seem to be pioneering through the southern towns of Vermont and we find them at Halifax and Bennington. He served in the Revolution under Col. Blair, Albany County, N. Y. In 1800 they appear in Washington County, N. Y. In 17 19 Joseph and Hannah Stewart deed land to Joseph, 3d. The following interesting letters, written by him in the 97th and 98 th years of his age, have unveiled so much of the Stewart history, the compiler could not refrain from the impulse to append them as a fitting memoir of this grand old patriarch, who d. at White Creek, N. Y., Feb. 22, 1 82 1, a. 100 years, 1 month and 5 days. "White Creek, Aug. the 28, 18 18. " I have received your letter and I am sorry to hear of your sickness. " By all accounts of our descent, we are of the royal house of the Stewarts. My Father was John the eldest son of Robert my Grandfather, who was obliged to fly to Ireland when they were newly married. My Granny was sent to Edinburgh and he was born there. As far as I can learn they belong to the House of White Rose and not altogether separated from the House of Black Hall. My Grandfather's family's names was John and Robert and their sister's name was Juleyan, Samuel, the youngest. My Grandfather had a good estate in Scotland when he fled from it. King William would do nothing about it, neither would Queen Anne, but when King George came to the crown their Uncle Samuel Stewart, by the help of the Duke of Argyle, recovered it. That must be the estate you mention. I was informed that Uncle Samuel died without issue, left no heirs. The way that I came to know of our descent was by old Father James Stewart of Colrain. You may remember young James, who married at last Margaret Anderson your cousin. That descent was from White Rose, for he himself belonged to Black Hall. He had a catalogue of the house of Stewarts for many hundred years, but son Alx carried it away with him to Pennsylvania. I did not know all this until after my father's death. This I knew they belonged to the Rose party, by reason of the high esteem they had for Charles the ist who had many good properties. " My father's eldest son Charles who is your uncle, and my Father and your grand Uncle Robert would never own the last pretender or any of the race by reason of his spurious birth. No man dare assail the name of Stewart that was if he would not forfeit his life. It gives you the reach, James the ist had two sons James and Robert, James the 3d had two sons James and Robert. This is the whole I can give you at present. I am afraid you can't read for since I got that fall at your house I could never hold a pen to write straight. I would beg you would acquaint me of your proceedings therefore I rest "To John Stewart. Your father, Joseph Stewart." The following letter was addressed to a person, name unknown, who evidently had written him a letter of inquiry. "White Creek, March 15, 1819. " Dear Sir, "I received yours of the 16th February last, informing me that the heirs of Elizabeth Forsyth that she married a Stewart. My Father's name was John Stewart, the eldest son of Robert Stewart. My mother's name was Elizabeth Forsyth. My grandmother's name was Forsyth, her Christian name forgot. My great-grandfather's name was, as I believe, Walter. My grandfather's name by my mother's side was either William or James, which I cannot tell." The above letter seems to have been closed abruptly and never received by the person addressed, it being a choice relic now in the possession of Joseph's descendants.

He settled in Halifax, Vt., and we find him also at Bennington, Vt. He removed to the State of New York and settled on a farm, where, it is said, the apples that fell from the trees rolled down into Vermont. He was a soldier in the Revolution, serving with his father in Col. Blair's Reg't, Albany Co., State of New York troops, and was granted land bounty for his service. | Stewart, Joseph (I23589)

| 4960 | Katharine Stewart was born 4 Jun 1793 in Auchnahard in Glen Finglas, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, as a daughter of Duncan Stewart and Mary McKinlay. Katharine Stewart never married nor had any children. According to Mrs Stewart of Milton's account, Katharine Stewart died unmarried in Coilantogle, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. In 1841, at age 50, Katharine Stewart was residing at Wester Garchonzie, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, across the Eas Gobhain River from Coilantogle. She was residing with 40 year old Archibald Stewart. He has not been identified. In 1851, at age 57, Katharine Stewart was residing in Coilantogle, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. She was residing with her brothers, John Stewart and Peter Stewart, and is identified as a farmer's sister. In 1861, at age 65, Katharine Stewart was residing at Coilantogle, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. She is identified as a farmer's sister. Katharine Stewart died on 21 Feb 1863 in Coilantogle, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. | Stewart, Katharine (I16646)

| 4963 | Katherine Ferguson is listed in the mortcloth registry for Aberfoyle parish: 14 Feb 1772 Katherine Fergusson spouse to And’w Stewart in Craigin(uchty?) | Ferguson, Katharine (I30168)
|
| 4964 | Katherine is not mentioned in her father's 1763 genealogy but her birth is registered in the Balquhidder parish registers. She is presumed to have died young prior to emigration and prior to the birth of her same-named sister. | Stewart, Katherine (I16614)
|
| 4965 | Katherine is said to have married a man named CLARK, whose first name is unknown and had a family of 8 children, including a son named Duncan, and to have immigrated as a family to Australia. Census records and IGI have a perfect match with a family of Hugh Clark and Catherine Stewart, who married in Edinburgh, had 8 children including a son named David (which is a known substitute name for Duncan) and are found in the 1841 census but no later census records. Thus it is believed that Katherine STEWART m: 26 FEB 1821 in Edinburgh parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland to Hugh CLARKE and that they had the following family before immigrating between 1841-1851 to Australia: | Stewart, Katherine (I16619)
|
| 4966 | Katherine presumably died young before the birth of her same-named sister. | Stewart, Katharine (I16645)
|
| 4967 | Katherine Stewart is believed to have been born about 1695 in Arrachiemore, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland, as a daughter of John Stewart and Janet McInstalker, although no record of her birth has been found. There was only one Stewart family living in the vicinity of Arrachie at the time of her birth, namely that of John Stewart and Janet McInstalker. Katherine Stewart married on 28 Dec 1714 in Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland to John McAulay. "1714 Buchanan – Decem’r 11 1714. John McAulay parissoner in Drymen and Katherine Stewart in this parish gave up y’r names to be proclaimedin marriage. Married Decem’r 28 1714." (Buchanan Parish Register) In 1717, John McAulay and Katherine Stewart are listed in the Buchanan Parish Examination Roll as residing at Bealachardend with occupants: "Jo: McAula, Katherine Stewart, Elizabeth McAuala." Elizabeth McAulay is presumed to be their daughter. Bealachard is located between Arrachiemore and Manse (Mains). In 1719, John McAulay and Katherine Stewart are listed in the Buchanan Parish Examination Roll as residing at Mid Mains. No children are listed. It is presumed that daughter Elizabeth had died, although it's also possible that she just wasn't listed. In 1721, John McAulay and Katherine Stewart are listed in the Buchanan Parish Examination Roll as residing at Ballachnachs? (Ballyconachy at Buchanan, Near Easter Mains). No children are listed. Katherine Stewart's father, John Stewart, died about 1722. In 1723, John McAulay and Katherine Stewart are listed in the Buchanan Parish Examination Roll as residing at Ballachonachie (south of Buchanan) along with Alexanderr Stewart and Mary Stewart. The identities of Alexander and Mary Stewart have not been confirmed, but they are likely younger siblings who moved in with their elder sister after their father died. Katherine Stewart is presumed to have died abt 1724 as she is not found in subsequent parish examination rolls and John McAulay in Wester Mains (believed to be her husband) marries again in 1725. | Stewart, Katherine (I30862)
|
| 4968 | Katherine Stewart is estimated to have been born about 1765 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland (as per her marriage record) to unknown parents. Her father's name was likely James Stewart as she named her second son James Stewart Forbes. "1786 - Forbes & Stuart - Jan'ry 21, John Forbes in this parish and Katherine Stewart in parish of Callander declared their purpose of Marriage." (Kilmadock Parish Register) Their marriage was registered secondly on 23 Jan 1786 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. --- Online trees show Catherine/Katherine Stewart as born 31 Aug 1765 in Craighead, Kilmadock, Perthshire, Scotland, as the daughter of Duncan Stewart and Agnes Whannel, however this is onomastically unlikely and contradicts her marriage record. There are no viable candidates for her birth in the Callander Parish Register. Potential birth families in Kilmadock with a father named James living nearby include: James Stewart and Katherine Stewart in Coilechat, Auchrig/Argaty, Drumvaich James Stewart and Christian Thomson in Kirktoun James Stewart and _____ Stewart in Drumvaich James Stewart and Jean Stewart in Drumvaich James Stewart and Catherine McArthur in Doune | Stewart, Katherine (I31521)

| 4972 | Katherine Stewart was born 22 Sep 1784 at Tar in Ruskie in Port of Menteith parish, Perthshire, Scotland, as the daughter of James Stewart of Tar and Achray and Anne Stewart, daughter of Donald Stewart, identified as the Shooter in the Appin Murder. In 1805, Smith Stewart, in his will, lists his following half-sisters as being single and residing in Auchray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland, at the time: Isabella, Catharine, Mary, Charlotte, and Lilias Stewart. Katherine Stewart has not been found in the 1841 census. In 1851, Katherine Stewart and her sister Isabella Stewart were residing in Leamington, Warwickshire, Scotland, with their servant Janet Ferguson. They were lodging in the home of Henry Price, a perfumer. In 1852, Katherine Stewart and her sister Isabella Stewart submitted testimony in the Glassingall Court of Session hearings regarding the hereditary ownership of the Glassingall estate. In their testimony, Catherine and Isabella spoke of their great-grandmother, Isobel Stewart of Annat*, who was married to Alexander 4th of Ballachulish. They also spoke of their grandmother having Annat aunties (although they did not name the grandmother) with whom she had boarded in Stirling. *Three of Katherine Stewart's four grandparents were Stewarts by birth. Her fourth grandparent was likely also a Stewart, but this is not confirmed. Most of her great-grandparents were also Stewarts by birth. Katherine Stewart was the daughter of Anne Stewart in Ballachulish, daughter of Donald Stewart, the Shooter, and Isabella Stewart in Ballachulish, who was the daughter of Alexander Stewart, 4th of Ballachulish, and Isabel Stewart in Annat, daughter of Alexander Stewart, 4th of Annat.

"Decem'r 29th 1730, Duncan Stewart in Inchfad and Margrat McJock spouses had a lawful daughter baptized called Katherine. Witnesses John Lenny in Inchfad and John McGlashalluin in Erochy Lurg." (Buchanan Parish Register) father died in 1736. In 1737, the recently widowed Margaret McJock was listed in the Buchanan Parish Examination Roll as residing at Arrachie Beg with her young children John Stewart (age 10), Janet Stewart (age 8), and Alexander Stewart (age 7). Her younger children, Katherine (age 6), Margaret (age 3), and Mary (age 1), are not listed. In 1739, widow Margaret McJock was listed in the Buchanan Parish Examination Roll as residing at Lagganmuir on the Arrachie estate with her young daughters, Margaret Stewart (age 5) and Mary Stewart (age 3).

| 4975 | Katherine Stewart was born 4 Apr 1762 in Inchry, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland, as the eldest daughter of Andrew Stewart and Katherine Ferguson. Katherine Stewart has not been identified in later records. Her later whereabouts is unknown. | Stewart, Katharine (I30171)
|
| 4976 | Katherine Stewart, daughter of James Stewart, 7th of Drummonderinoch, married firstly on 6 April 1693 in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland, to Alexander Stewart, 2nd of Craigton, by whom she had four children. After Alexander's death in 1705, she married secondly (prior to 1711) to Alexander Stewart, younger brother of Robert Stewart, 5th of Ardvorlich, by whom she had three more children. Duncan Stewart (1739) says: "Alexander of Craigtoun married Katharine Drummond, daughter to Drummond-Erinoch, by whom he had James, who died a batchelor and several daughters." She is listed as the relict (widow) of Alexander Stewart of Craigton in his testament inventory in 1705: "Testament, Inventar, etc, made, given up by Robert Stewart, chirurgeon in Doune, payment to him £444-6-8, expended on sickness, funerals, etc. (behalf of) James, Marie, Anna, Isobel Stewart, lawful children of dec'd (Alexander Stewart) and Catherine Drummond, relict of the dec'd, 13th February last past (1705)." Katherine Drummond is listed in a court action in 1711 against Alexander Stewart of Annat by his tenants, in which she is identified as Lady Craigton, wife of Alexander Stewart, brother-german to the Laird of Ardvorlich. Her son, James Stewart of Craigton, is listed as having a tutor and thus was still of minor age. "Katherine Drummond, Lady Craigton, and Alexander Stewart, brother german to the Laird of Ardvorlich, now her husband, for her interest, and all tenantry and tacksmen of the Estate of Craigton, and James Stewart of Craigton, and his tutor and curatory for their interest." (19 Jan 1711) Catherine Drummond is mentioned in the following reference from the MacGregor Collection: "Catherine Drummond and [her son] Robert Stewart, she was mother to R Stewart an idiot and alimented him 1721 - 1751. In that year he succeeded Buchannan to Ardvorlich. (Norison’s Decisions No.46, p412, Vol.1 ) He died unmarried in 1760 - Dundurn Tombstone." | Drummond, Katherine of Drummonderinoch (I4814)
|
| 4977 | Katherine was one of Duncan's many natural children by unknown mistresses. | Campbell, Katherine (I2297)
|
| 4978 | Katherine's baptism was witnessed by Duncan Ferguson and David STEWART both in Doun. | Stewart, Kathrine (I16608)
|
| 4979 | Katherine's baptism was witnessed by James Murdoch and William Stewart both in Doune. | Stewart, Kathrine (I16631)
|
| 4980 | Katherine's birth is not recorded in the Kilmadock Parish Register. Based on the date of her marriage contract she would be too old to be the unnamed child whose birth is recorded in 1674. Gordon MacGregor, Red Book of Scotland, says, "Katherine Stewart, m. Andrew MacLachlan, eldest son and heir of Walter MacLachlan of Drumlean, [contracted on] 8 November 1682." | Stewart, Katharine (I21525)
|
| 4981 | Katherine's mother is uncertain. MacGregor indicates that her father was married twice, first to Marion Douglas, by whom he had issue and secondly to Margaret Mercer. macGregor says, in the entry under Drummond, that Maurice Drummond and Margaret Mercer had issue, whereas the same couple are reported as having no issue in the parellel listing under the Mercer family. However the marriage date for Katherine Drummond makes it very unlikely that she was the child of Maurice Drummond's first marriage. I suspect the listing under Mercer meant "no male issue". | Drummond, Katherine (I4847)
|
| 4982 | Katherine's mother's name is recorded as Katherine Cameron. | McNaughtan, Katherine (I10325)
|
| 4983 | Kathleen is shown with her parents in 1921 as being ten years old and having immigrated in 1914. This is a remarkablly late birth. The death of Kathleen's mother lists the informant as Mrs. William McKinnon in Shedden, Elgin County, Ontario, Canada. | Moore, Kathleen (I21244)
|
| 4984 | Kathleen was a corporal in the Royal Canadian Air Force and was residing in London, England at the time of her father's death. | Stewart, Corporal Kathleen Agnes (I16605)

|
| 4986 | Keefer McIntyre married Mildred Larson when she was only 14 years old. This is according to birth, marriage and death records for her, as well as pre-marital census records. In census records after they were married she indicates that she was several years older than her actual age. | McIntyre, Keefer (I10100)
|
| 4987 | Ken was born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario. He spent his whole life searching. Throughout his life he was very religious. He was very active in Ryerson United Church in Hamilton (the same church that his grandfather helped build) as a boy and youth and showed a strong passion in his Christian faith. He was president of the Tower Club (Ryerson's youth group) and was a very active lay-preacher as a youth. As a boy he received a call from God to enter professional church ministry, but he was discouraged from pursuing this call by both his mother and a school teacher who regrettably and wrongly told him that he was "not smart enough" to pursue such a calling. Having the door closed to his authentic call and vocation, Ken spent the rest of his life searching for an alternative vocation. He worked most of his life unsatisfied in retail and commercial sales (primarily in medical equipment sales) while remaining very active in the church, especially working with youth. In 1989 he was ordained as an Elder of the Presbyterian Church at Chalmers church in London, Ontario. His spiritual impact on youth was evidenced at his funeral, which was standing-room-only (in a sanctuary that seats over 500), with many former church youth having travelled great distances to attend. Ken was also very active in Freemasonry; he was particularly intrigued by its quasi-religious and ancient historical aspects. One of his more proud achievements was the year he spent as Grand Junior Warden for the Grand Lodge of Canada (Ontario). He was widely respected by his "brethren" lodge members and his Masonic funeral was also largely attended. Having been raised in a home of uneven and sparing affections, Ken was very careful to be equal and generous in his affections and support of both of his son's widely different lives, careers and hobbies. Though his temper could sometimes get the better of him, Ken did break the lineage of hereditary family violence from his father's side; he disposed of the family "heirloom" disciplinary leather strap. His descendants will be forever grateful. Ken was 61 when he suffered a series of debilitating strokes, the last of which proved fatal. | Brown, Kenneth Richard (I2081)
|
| 4988 | Kenneth and his brother Robert were sent back to Scotland as boys to be educated. Kenneth became a celebrated linguist. Kenneth inherited the estate of Annat in Rait from his father and passed it on to his eldest lawful daughter. He had a natural son, Robert. A member submitted IGI entry indicates that the mother of Kenneth's daughter, Mary, was Janet Robertson, thus, Kenneth may have been married twice. | Stuart, Kenneth Bruce 2nd of Annat in Rait (I18079)
