| 6012 | STEWART, James, born ca. 1824. From Perthshire. Son of John S. (q.v.) and Jane McLean (q.v.) To New York State 1833, later to Puslinch Township, Wellington County, Ontario Farmer. M. Elizabeth Sinclair (q.v.) with issue: (1) Catherine; (2) John; (3) Jane; (4) Mary; (5) Alexander; (6) Elizabeth; (7) James; (8) Archibald; (9) Peter. (D.C. 23 Apr. 1967) (Dictionary of Scottish Immigrants, Donald Whyte) Farmed Front-Lot 12, Concession 2, Puslinch, next door to his father. (Wellington County Atlas) Harold Stewart indicates Peter's birthplace was Meikle Logie, Perthshire Scotland, and can confirm that Peter was actually born Peter Steele to John Steele and Jean Maclean. Apparently, the Stewart name was adopted after they came to North America. A family dispute of of some sort had them adopting the surname Steele instead of Stewart for an extended period of time in Scotland. OPR records in Little Dunkeld confirm this family. James Stewart was born James Steele to parents John Steele and Jean McLean. In 1851 Census he is found in Stratford, but he must have been just visiting as he remained on the Puslinch farm until 1875. PHS records (probably originating with a family record) indicate that James and his family moved "out west". In 1881 they can be found living on the Bruce Peninsula. Whether they later moved further "out west" is not known at this time. | Stewart, James Steele (I16262)

| 6014 | Stewarts of the South (circa 1815) says, “The real representative of that family at present is a young man (Walter), a clerk in London, grandson to the late Walter Stewart who disposed of the lands of Gartnafuara.... Walter has also another brother in W[est] Indies, named Alexander, who is said to be doing well.” | Stewart, Alexander (I14787)

Walter has also another brother in W[est] Indies, named Alexander, who is said to be doing well.” | Stewart, Walter (I18377)
|
| 6016 | Stewarts of the South describes Alexander as "Alexander Stewart, who is a tacksman in Dalveich, Balquhidder parish on Breadalbane's estate. He has three sons -- one adult and two under age." It indicates that Alexander is closely related to Robert Stewart in St. Fillans but does not indicate their relationship. The Walker Family History says that "Alexander Stewart married Janet Stewart [in] Lochearnside. Her mother's name was MacLaren." This family is easily identifiable in the OPR. Alexander STEWART married on 08 DEC 1792 in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland to his first cousin Janet STEWART, believed to be the sister of the aformentioned Robert Stewart and the daughter of John Stewart and Margaret MCLAREN of this line. | Stewart, Alexander (I15090)
|
| 6017 | Stewarts of the South describes John as: "John Bain Mor, late tenant at Auchnahard, Glenfinglas, left five sons." The Ardvorlich History notes that John Ban Mor did not reside in Auchnahard until sometime between 1744-1748. This was about the same time that his brother Alexander left Glen Finglas. It may also be the time their father died. John became head of the largest and most prosperous branch of Stewarts in Glenfinglas. They became known as the "Bains of Glenfinglas". (Bain is an Anglo corruption of 'ban' which means "fair haired".) John was the lead defendant in "The Glen Affair" (1755-1752) in which the tenants of Glen Finglas were in dispute with their landlord over unpaid rent. John Ban Mor was still alive in 1772 when the matter was resolved. The Ardvorlich History claims that shortly after 1860 "practically the whole tribe emigrated to Canada and settled in Ontario." | Stewart, John Ban Mor in Auchnahard (I17198)
|
| 6018 | Stewarts of the South describes John as: "John Stewart of Annat had a natural son called Iain Buigh mor. He give him a farm in Glenfinglas. His descendants are now called Bains." John was called "Iain Buidhe Mor" or "Big Blond John" although the alternative spelling in Stewarts of the South of "Buigh" would mean "Big Effeminate John" (unlikely); the former is preferred. Given that his grandfather was known as "Allaster mac Iain Dubh" (Alexander, son of black-haired John), this would suggest that this John's mother was likely blonde. This John is recorded in The Ardvorlich History as the earliest verifiable ancestor of the Stewarts in Glenfinglas and referenced in "1663 John S. in Glenfinglas Test[ament] (Auchnahard), James S., his lawful son. Another James S. married his daughter. Another daughter married Walter S. in Auchinferron (Gartnafueran?) -- DCR [Dunblane Commissariat Records]." This would suggest that John died in 1663. The fact that John Buidhe Mor's grandson, John Ban Mor, had a daughter who married Walter Stewart in Gartnafuaran and another daughter who married James Stewart in Duart suggests that the reference is confused and is referring to the later John Ban Mor. The Annat Tree refers to this John as "John Dow Stewart in Glenfinglas, natural son". However John Dow Stewart, the natural son, actually refers to John Dubh Beag Stewart the natural son of Duncan Stewart, 5th of Glen Finglas. John Dubh Beag Stewart was responsible for the Clearing of Glen Finglas. Several generations of the Glenbucke Stewarts were referred to as "Dubh" ("Black," meaning "dark-haired"), whereas this John and his descendants were referred to as "Bain", the "Fair-Haired Stewart," presumably to differentiate them from their Glenbuckie cousins. The Annat Tree has confused the two Johns. The Ardvorlich History says that the earliest verifiable ancestor of this family was "John Bhuie Stewart" who was "first in the Glen" and was "preceded by a John or twa." Stewarts of the South, Ardvorlich Section IX - "The Bains of Glenfinglas," gives the origins of this branch as: "John Stewart of Annat had a natural son called Iain Buigh mor. He gave him a farm in Glenfinglas. His descendants are now called Bains." The accounting of the Bains in Stewarts of the South matches with the accounting of the Glenfinglas Stewarts in The Ardvorlich History. Thus, we follow Stewarts of the South and suggest that John Buidhe Mor Stewart was a natural son of John Stewart of Annat. Chronology would suggest that the John of Annat in question would have to be John Stewart, 2nd of Annat. Sometime around 1620, following the clearing of Glenfinglas, the Annat family complained to James Beag Stewart, 2nd of Ardvorlich, after he received a beneficial tack of Glenfinglas and portioned it among the principal branches of the Balquhidder Stewarts, but left out the Annat family. Chronology makes it likely that it was Alexander Stewart, 1st of Annat, who complained about being left out of the Glenfinglas tack. The Annat family were then given a one-eighth share of Glenfinglas. By later accountings, it would appear that their portion was Auchnahard. However, Mrs Stewart of Milton's Account says that this family resided first in Duart, then in Grodich, and only after 1750 did they move to Auchnahard, so we cannot be certain where in Glen Finglas this family began. The Ardvorlich History claims that the later John Buidhe Mor was preceded by "a John or two". It seems likely that the Annat portionof Glen Finglas probably went first to John Stewart, future 2nd of Annat, while Alexander was still alive, then John, future 2nd of Annat, likely held the property until his father's death, at which point he would have inherited the principal estate of Annat, to become John Stewart, 2nd of Annat, which would be when his natural son, John Buidhe Mor probably took possession of the tack in Glenfinglas. John's death date of 1663 comes from The Annat Tree submitted to the International Genealogical Index. We presently have no further reference for this death date. | Stewart, John Buidhe Mor in Glen Finglas (I17199)
|
| 6019 | Stewarts of the South describes John as: "John, [who is] of a second marriage. [He and his brother Robert] live with their brother Charles." Their father had died by the time of the writing of Stewarts of the South (ca. 1815). John and Robert would have been still minors at this time. Presumably their elder brother became their guardian. | Stewart, John (I17039)
|
| 6020 | Stewarts of the South describes Robert as having resided in Blarcreich. OPR baptism data shows he also resided in Lednascridan and Stronvar Beg. Robert married on 4 MAY 1728 in Balquhidder and 28 MAY 1728 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland to Christian STEWART (with Robert of Balquhidder parish and Christian of Callander parish). | Stewart, Robert in Blarcrioch (I18171)
|
| 6021 | Stewarts of the South has made an error in accounting for the children of this family. Robert Stewart in Gartmore is recorded as having two sons named James, but OPR data shows that one of these sons was actually named George. Either the author or transcriber of Stewarts of the South made an error and simply repeated the name James. Onomastics would suggest and OPR data confirms that the eldest was James and the second was George. However we cannot be confident that Stewarts of the South has recorded them in the correct order. So it is probable, but not certain, that the first of these two sons described is that of James and the second is that of George, but we cannot say for sure without further evidence. 1. James (or George) Stewart, [a] cottager [in] Aberfoil [in the] Lordship of Monteith. He has: two sons with their father 2. James (or George) Stewart, [who is a] householder [in the] village of Gartmore. [He has] three sons: the first is a mason; the second a gardener; the third is a shoemaker. | Stewart, George (I16176)

| 6022 | Stewarts of the South has made an error in accounting for the children of this family.

Either the author or transcriber of Stewarts of the South made an error and simply repeated the name James.

James (or George) Stewart, [who is a] householder [in the] village of Gartmore. [He has] three sons: the first is a mason; the second a gardener; the third is a shoemaker. | Stewart, James (I16543)
|
| 6023 | Stewarts of the South indicates that he died young without sons. This is presumed by the fact that he had a same named brother. MacGregor shows him as a tacksman at Aldanbreg near Aberfoyle. | Stewart, Duncan in Aldanabreg (I15920)
|
| 6024 | Stewarts of the South is ambiguous in its reference for this Alexander. There are two entries: Alexander, son to Iain Dubh [was in] Duard [in] Glenfinglas [and] left three sons." A second entry follows reading: "Alastir mac Iain Duibh went to the isle of Arran and left a family there." These could be two entries for two Alexanders - father and son, or two entries for the same person. Our present interpretation is that they are two entries for the same person. Otherwise it would make Donald mac Iain Dubh a grandson of Iain Dubh rather than his son. Thus we suggest that this Alexander had three sons who may have been born in Duart before moving to Arran. | Stewart, Alexander mac Iain Dubh (I15070)
|
| 6025 | Stewarts of the South is confusing in its accounting of this family. It says: "There was one Duncan Stewart Brother to.... " and the entry stops at this point. It would appear that the original text is unreadable or missing. It is not clear who Duncan is a brother to. He may be the fourth son of Walter Stewart in Dunan. No birth record has been found for him. | Stewart, Duncan (I15834)
|
| 6026 | Stewarts of the South is confusing in its accounting of this family. It would appear that this Alexander is the one described as: "Alexander Stewart at Crochavie, Aberfoil parish, under the Lordship of Monteith, now belonging to the Duke of Montrose. Alexander has one son: Charles." However this identification is not certain. | Stewart, Alexander (I14814)
|
| 6027 | Stewarts of the South lists a James and Peter Stewart among the extended family of Dougald Stewart of Tulloch, but does not indicate the nature of their relationship. It would appear that they are most likely nephews by a brother of Dougald's whom the author either didn't know or omitted. | Stewart, Son (I18289)
|
| 6028 | Stewarts of the South records that Branch IV of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich resided in Letter and Auchrig. Thus we should expect to likely find a record of the sons of Duncan Oig Stewart residing in or nearby to Auchrig or Letter. As we are also now working backwards through the third generation of OPR matches based on geography, chronology and onomastics, the compounding uncertainty should decrease the reliability of the suggestion of this birth family for John Stewart, except for the glaring fact that this family resided in Auchrig which was exactly the origin given in Stewarts of the South, so we can consider this also to be supported by Stewarts of the South and not merely by the OPR. In seeking a birth family for John Stewart who married Janet McFarlane, the following leaps off the page of the Port of Menteith OPR: John Stewart and Janet Dow 1. John M 29/12/1700 John Jenat Dou in Achrig 2. Androw M 20/12/1702 John Jenat Dow in Auchreig W: James & Donald S 3. Andrew M 1/5/1706 John Jenat Dow in Auchreig W: James & Alex S 4. Margaret F 22/5/1709 John Jenat Dow in Auchrigg As we do not have a marriage record for this couple and as the OPR only begins recording baptisms in 1698 we cannot be certain that all the children of this family are shown above. It is entirely possible that this couple had other chidlren prior to 1698. | Stewart, John in Auchrig (I21529)
|
| 6029 | Stewarts of the South records that she married Cameron of Lundabhar. She married Allan Cameron of Lundavar, one of the witnesses for the defense in the Appin Murder. | Stewart, Janet (I16656)
|
| 6030 | Stewarts of the South records that Stank "formerly belonged to Buchanan of Auchlessy, afterwards to the late laird of McNab, and since sold to a gentleman in Glasgow. [Stank] is in the Parish of Callendar. According to Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions, James married Rebecca BUCHANAN, although no record of the marriage has been found. | Stewart, James Og (I16593)
|
| 6031 | Stewarts of the South records the name of the eldest son of John Stewart in Easter Brig of Turk as "James" where as the Callander OPR shows his eldest son as "John". If this branch is correctly accounted then it would seem most likely that Stewarts of the South got John's name incorrectly. Either that or there was another son James whose birth is not recorded and this son, John, died young and is not recorded in Stewarts of the South. Or this family has been incorrectly accounted. Thus it is presently suggested that this John Stewart is incorrectly accounted in Stewarts of the South as "James (sic), [an] innkeeper [in] Callendar who has one son". | Stewart, John (I17042)
|
| 6032 | Stewarts of the South refers to "There was one Walter, cousin to Doal Ban Mor...." The reference to "Doal Ban Mor" is problematic. It can be interpreted two ways: either as a transliteration of "Domhnall", the Gaelic form of Donald, which is pronounced similar to "Doh-al"; or it could be a transcription error for "John Ban Mor". This makes it unclear if Walter is a cousin of the previously mentioned John Ban Mor in Auchnahard, or if there was an additional Donald Ban Mor. Evidence from the Callander OPR (shown below) shows a promising identification of Donald Ban Mor as a brother of John Ban Mor. This would make Walter a cousin of both John Ban Mor and Donald Ban Mor. If the reference to "Doal Ban Mor" is indeed a reference to a Donald Ban Mor Stewart then there is an intriguing entry in the Callander OPR, where we find the family of Donald STEWART and Janet BUCHANAN as shown here. The Callander OPR indicates that Donald and Janet were "both of this parish" at the time of their marriage (which was double entered on 31 DEC 1735). What is particularly intriguing about this family is that their son John Stewart is recorded as born in Ballimenoch. The only Ballimenoch known to be in Callander was Ballimenoch of Leny. The only other reference in the entire Callander OPR to a Stewart born in Ballimenoch is that of John Ban Mor Stewart of Auchnahard (above). Onomastics and chronology would make this Donald Stewart an excellent candidate for being a brother to John Ban Mor. We note also that Donald's first son was born in Trean of Leny. Trean of Leny and Ballimenoch of Leny were both residences on the estate of the extended family of Buchanan of Leny. And John Ban Mor Stewart (above) married Mary Buchanan, daughter of John and Janet Buchanan of Trean of Leny. To add even further intrigue to this family is an entry in The Ardvorlich History which simply reads: 1712 Donald S. living SGL (in Auchnahard) Could this Donald Stewart be the "Doal Ban Mor" recorded in Stewarts of the South? It's also worth noting that Donald's last known child was born in 1745 suggesting the possibility that Donald died in The '45 or was forced to flee the area. | Stewart, Donald Ban Mor (I15856)
|
| 6033 | Stewarts of the South says "Alexander Stewart of Auchnahaurd, Glenfinglas, [has] one-eighth part of [Glenfinglas], [and is] married to Donald Stewart's sister at Auch [in] Glenurchay (Glenorchy, Argyll). He had five sons who are all minors." And later it says that Alastair had "a spark in the throat which cannot be quenched". The Ardvorlich History identifies him as Alastair Mor and also says that his wife Christian was "Auch's sister". Furthermore, according to Stewarts of the South, The Ardvorlich History, and the Glassingall Court of Session Papers (1849-1856), Alexander/Alastair was the only son of James Stewart in Invercarnaig to survive to adulthood. | Stewart, Alastair Mhor in Auchnahard (I14757)
|
| 6034 | Stewarts of the South says "Duncan Stewart, brother to Iain Du Beg of Glenbuckie, had three sons." Stewarts of the South makes it appear that Duncan was patriarch of III Branch, however this is now believed to be a mistaken reading. It is now believed that he simply had "three sons" whose names are not known and who are not accounted for in Stewarts of the South. However, it is entirely possible that those branches shown as descending from Duncan's youngest brother, Alexander, could instead descend from a son of this Duncan, named Alexander. Onomastics match both cases. Duncan could also be the ancestor of one or more of the unaccounted branches of Glenbuckie. | Stewart, Duncan (I15735)
|
| 6035 | Stewarts of the South says "John Stewart, late tenant at Auchnahaird, left one son, called "John Tacksman of Grodlick" [Grodich]. One-eighth of Glenfinglas. He has one son who is a minor." According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's Account: "Of the Grodich Stewarts who left Grodich and came to Auchnahard, there were three of the name of John in succession - grandfather, father and son. That family eventually went to Aberdeen and became wine merchants there." She says later: "Of the [that] Grodich family, the first of the three Johns was possibly the son of John Stewart, Glenfinlas and Mary Buchanan." It is not certain if this reference pertains to this family or another Glen Finglas family. | Stewart, John in Auchnahard (I17246)
|
| 6036 | Stewarts of the South says Robert was "with his father at Glenfinglas" ca. 1815-1820. The Ardvorlich History describes Robert as: "Robert, a farmer at Drunkie, who married Monachyle's sister, and had one daughter who married Duncan, now in Monachyle, another married John Stewart of the Milton." Actually it was Robert's mother-in-.law who was McDonald in Monachyle's sister. Robert is found in the 1857 Valuation Roll with his brother-in-law, James Stewart, 5th of Edraleachdach and Lorachan: James Stewart in Edraleachdach (brother of Anne Stewart, first wife of Alexander) was tenant in Wester Dullater under the proprietorship of Mrs Agnes Eastmonth (McNaughton) James Stewart in Edraleachdach was also tenant in Hill Grazings of Invertrossachs, proprietor Mrs Jane Hunter (Eastmonth). She was also proprietor of: Farm of Cuilnagrain, tenanted by Robert Stewart Mansion House of Invertrossachs, Home Farm and Grain Parks (of Invertrossachs), tenanted by Stewart McNaughton Esq. | Stewart, Robert in Drunkie (Invertrossachs) (I18120)
|
| 6037 | Stewarts of the South says that "John Du na Sroan (of this family) had three grand uncles, [the] first of them: Peter Stewart, [a] tacksman of Lianach [in] Glenbuckie." This can be interpreted in a couple of ways: that Peter/Patrick Stewart is the name of the first granduncle, or that Peter Stewart is the first known descendant of the granduncle, or both. | Stewart, Patrick? (I17890)
|
| 6038 | Stewarts of the South says that Alexander lived at Torrie near Callander and that his son, Walter, was a clerk in London. | Stewart, Alexander in Torrie (I14927)
|
| 6039 | Stewarts of the South says that Walter's father had three sons. Only two sons have been identified, but there is a gap ca. 1806 where an eldest son could have fit. Onomastics would suggest this son's name was Walter. | Stewart, Walter (I18359)
|
| 6040 | Stewarts of the South says, "Alexander Stewart, his (John's) brother, is a cotton manufacturer. He has two sons, same line, in Glasgow, well doing." | Stewart, Alexander in Glasgow (I21597)
|
| 6041 | Stewarts of the South says, "James Mac Alastir foresaid [who] had a son [who was] a tenant of Lorachans [on] Loch Cathrine side [in] Callander parish, [on the] estate of Drummond. [James mac Alastir’s] offspring goes under the denomination of Lorachans." Interpretting the references in Stewarts of the South is challenging for this family. It appears to indicate that James MacAlastir Stewart was the father of James Stewart, the Black Sergeant, and this can be reconciled with OPR data as shown here. The Callander OPR records: "1714 James STEUART and Janet MCEUAN both in this paroch listed themselves to be proclaimed in order to marriage June 12th and after orderly proclamation were married June 30th." The children from this family fit with the accounting of the later generations of this family as presented in Stewarts of the South, except for the fact that James' eldest son by Janet is named Donald, her father's name. An earlier family can be found for James with Catherine Stewart, living in Tombae in Strathyre, directly across the river from Corriechrombie where James' suggested third son, Donald was born. No marriage record has been found for James and Catherine, but the OPR did not start recording marriages until 1710, so their marriage could easily predate the commencement of the OPR. And this earlier family has an eldest son, Alexander. It is a perfect fit chronologically, geographically and onomastically. Thus we suggest that James MacAlasdair Stewart was marred twice. | Stewart, James MacAlasdair in Lorachan (I17163)
|
| 6042 | Stewarts of the South says, "James Stewart of Thornhill, on Blair Drummond's estate, Down parish. He has four sons [who are] minors." | Stewart, James in Thornhill (I21606)
|
| 6043 | Stewarts of the South says, "James Stewart, brother to the above Duncan & Donald, tacksman in ?Tinich, on the estate of Radnaick, Port parish. His sons: John Stewart, tacksman and maltman in the parish of Kippen, on the estate of Gartmore, Stirlingshire. He has 4 sons [who are] minors. James Stewart of Thornhill, on Blair Drummond's estate, Down parish. He has four sons [who are] minors." | Stewart, James in ?tinich of Rednock (I21600)

| 6044 | Stewarts of the South says, "John Stewart, a spirit dealer in Glasgow, is son to Donald Stewart, late tacksman of Auchmore, Port parish. He has two sons: a spirit dealer (and) a cloth merchant." | Stewart, John in Glasgow (I21594)
|
| 6045 | Stewarts of the South says, "John Stewart, tacksman and maltman in the parish of Kippen, on the estate of Gartmore, Stirlingshire. He has 4 sons [who are] minors." | Stewart, John in Kippen (I21601)
|
| 6046 | Stewarts of the South says, (Ardvorlich Branch IV: Stewarts in Letter) "John Stewart, tacksman of Broich, on Sir John McGregor's estate of Lendrick, Down parish. He has three sons employed on the farm." The Stewarts of the South Appendix for Doune parish says, "John Stewart, tenant [in] Broich, Ardvorlich family, an industrious [and] keen man, in Sir John McGregor-Murray's Estate." There is no family matching the description of "John Stewart, tenant [in] Broich, Ardvorlich family, an industrious [and] keen man, in Sir John McGregor-Murray's Estate." The only family in the Kilmadock OPR shown residing in Broich is the following: Robert STUART/STEWART and Isabella STUART/STEWART in Broich m 27 DEC 1736 in Port of Menteith 1. Elisabeth STEWART, bap 2 APR 1738 in Broich, Witt. James STUART in Daldorn and John STUART in Deanstoun 2. Isobell STEWART, bap 23 MAR 1740 in Broich, Witt. John STUART in Deanstoun and John Lennox in Doolet 3. Katherine STEWART, bap 06 FEB 1743 in Nether Broich, Witt. John Henderson and Robert McUlloch in Broich 4. Isobell STEWART, bap 14 JAN 1744 in Broich, Witt. Rot McCulloch and Arch McGibbon there (OPR gives father as Robert Muschet sic, however there is no other such couple in the OPR) 5. John STEWART, bap 17 MAR 1745 in Nether Broich, Witt. John STUART at Bridge End of Doun and James STUART in Daldorn 6. Alexander STEWART, bap 17 NOV 1751 in Broich, Witt. Will. Greig and Alexr. McGruther in Doun 7. Jannet STEWART, bap 24 NOV 1754 in Broich, Witt. John Henderson and Gilbert Bo---- there Alexander STEWART (above) and May BAXTER in Broich 1. Agnes STEWART, bap 14 APR 1776 in Broich, Witt. ----- Murdoch Lanrick and Alexr Murdoch 2. Robert STEWART, bap 10 MAY 1778 in Broich, Witt. Robert Stewart and William Murdoch both in Broich 3. Child STEWART, bap 26 Jun 1791 in Lendrick, Witt. Peter McGregor and James Gow Jr. both at Lendrick (Parents: Alexander Stewart and Mary illegible -- McLachlane at Milton of Cambus?) The John Stewart b 1745 above would fit chronologically with the John Stewart in Broich described in Stewarts of the South above, however no matching children can be found for him. The family of Alexander Stewart and Mary Baxter is found having children in Broich at the time. Could Stewarts of the South have made a mistake on the name of John Stewart or were John's children baptised elsewhere or not recorded? As the family above represents the only Stewarts in Broich then it would seem this must be the right family. What seems most likely is that John lived elsewhere when he had his children and then later returned to Broich by the time that Stewarts of the South was written, ca. 1815-1820. Since we cannot be certain how to interpret Stewarts of the South as yet then this information is currently being left here as merely a research lead in hopes that further information may come to light. | Stewart, John in Broich (I21613)
|
| 6047 | Stewarts of the South says: "James Mac Alastir foresaid had a son [who was] a tenant of Lorachans [on] Loch Cathrine side [in] Callander parish, [on the] estate of Drummond. [James mac Alastir's] offspring goes under the denomination of Lorachans." If our present accounting is correct that James MacAlasdair was the father of James, the Black Sergeant, then his father would have to be Alexander. | Stewart, Alexander mac Donnachaidh of Glenbuckie V Branch (I15900)
|
| 6048 | Stewarts of the South says: "[He was a] tacksman of Glaschoil [on the] south side of Loch Catherine [in the] [Lordship] of Monteith, [which] now [belongs to the] Duke of Montrose in Aberfoil parish. [Walter] died some years before David and had no family." Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, " Walter Stewart, b. on 14 May 1729 and became Tacksman at Glaschoil. He died without children." | Stewart, Walter in Glaschoil (I18376)
|
| 6049 | Stirnet incorrectly records his name as Ivan, not Ivar. | Ragnarsson, Ivar (I13323)
|
| 6050 | Stirnet records that she may have been a Graham, but this is uncertain. | Euphemia (I5748)
