| 6514 | This person's name is unknown. His son Robert is described as probably a grandson of Peter, Lord of Maule. | de Maule, Son (I4524)
|
| 6515 | This Peter Ferguson is probably identical with the Peter Ferguson shown elsewhere in this database as marrying Margaret McKenzie and having a child Christian Ferguson in Callander in 1832. | Ferguson, Peter (I5993)
|
| 6516 | This proposed birth family for John Chew, born 5 May 1771, is probable, but not confirmed. All ancestors of this line back to Richard Chewe, born about 1550, are likely, but are not confirmed. Earlier ancestors to Richard Chewe should be considered as conjecture, based on research or earlier Chew genealogists. The present author is following their published research. | Chew, Thomas (I2554)
|
| 6517 | This proprietor of Stronvar, or, as he was familiarly known by his clansmen and countrymen as Rob a Mhinisteir (the Minister's Robert), was a great legal luminary. It is told that on one occasion he took a case all the way to what was called the Green Table in London, and won it, which was considered in those days the most wonderful feat in the law line. Hence the people of Balquhidder looked up to him with awe and reverence. When any of them happened to quarrel and be thought them of going to get the matter settled by the lawyers at Dunblane, the laird of Stronvar soon settled it for them without going so far, and so saved them much trouble and expense. From this may be gathered the depth of meaning in the speech which the chief of the M'Nabs delivered over the grave of Rob a Mhinisteir. As the people (almost all the parish was there) were gazing at the newly closed grave, M'Nab thus briefly addressed them: "Men of Balquhidder, you may well look at that grave, forere twelve months will have passed over you, you will be ready to give the teeth out of your heads if you could call him back again whom you have this day laid in the dust." According to Stewarts of the South, Capt. Robert Ferguson acquired Stronvar from the Stewarts of Hyndfield (aka Stronvar) who were a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Gartnafuaran. Stronvar passed from Capt. Robert Ferguson of Stronvar to his nephew, John Ferguson, who was Provost of Cupar in Fife who sold it to Capt. Duncan Stewart, 16th of Glenbuckie. | Ferguson, Capt. Robert a Mhinisteir of Stronvar (I26332)
|
| 6518 | This record comes from a member submitted IGI record. I suspect the birthdate should be 1756, not 1766. In which case this is probably the Elizabeth who married David Ord. | Cockburn, Elizabeth (I2662)
|
| 6519 | This relationship is purely speculative. IGI shows a James Shearwood born 1704 in Middleton/Rothwell, Yorkshire. There are two Middletons in Yorkshire: one is near Rothwell, as suburb of Leeds; the other is in the Cleveland Hills near Kingston on Hull where this family is known to come from. It is also the only IGI birth within 20 years for a James Sherwood (or derivative) anywhere in Yorkshire. I realize the dangers of relying solely on IGI data, that is why this relationship is purely speculative. I have not yet had the opportunity to view the films. | Shearwood, James (I14232)
|
| 6520 | This Robert is believed to be the Robert Stewart who married Janet WALKER (although no record of their marriage has been found) and had the following children. However these children do not fit onomastically, as Robert's eldest son should be named James. And Robert seems too young to be born in 1770 and having his first child in 1791. But Robert's great-granddaughters are referred to as "Caleb Stewarts", presumably a reference to a family relationship to Caleb Stewart, shown here as Robert's half-brother. | Stewart, Robert (I17980)
|
| 6521 | This Robert Stewart's birth is recorded in Stewarts of the South as follows: "William Stewart Esqur the presant proprietor four sons 1 Robert 2 John 3 Willm 4 Anthony." This is the Robert Stewart of Ardvorlich who corresponded with Sir Walter Scott in the preface to "A Legend of Montrose" about the murder of Lord Kilpont by "his ancestor," Maj. James Beag Stewart, 2nd of Ardvorlich. Robert Stewart died without children and was succeeded by his nephew, William Stewart. | Stewart, Robert 9th of Ardvorlich (I18138)
|
| 6522 | This Robert succeeded to the lands of Ardvorlich in 1751 upon the death of his uncle, Robert Stewart, 5th of Ardvorlich. According to the Ardvorlich Stone, Robert Stewart, 6th of Ardvorlich, died unmarried in 1760. His death represented the end of the original branch of Ardvorlich. Stewarts of the South mentions the end of this branch of the family, terminating with this Robert Stewart, 6th of Ardvorlich: "The old Branch of Ardvorlich Family (& sometime Macorriston) became extinct when the present Mr Stewart's father became heir - the last branch which you may see in Duncan Stewart's History was Robert, a rude and boisterous man. He died without issue." (The "present Mr Stewart" refers to William Stewart, 8th of Ardvorlich and his father, Robert Stewart, 5th of Balimeanach and 7th of Ardvorlich. The "old branch of Ardvorlich" became extinct when this Robert Stewart, 6th of Ardvorlich, died without issue.) This Robert is described in the Stewarts of the South as "a rude and boisterous man", above, and later as "a lunatic who had the income of the estate during his life." As this Robert was the last male of his line and had no male heirs, the next in line to inherit Ardvorlich was Robert's distant cousin, (another) Robert Stewart, 5th of Balimeanach. Although Robert Stewart, 6th of Ardvorlich inherited Ardvorlich in 1751 and did not die until 1760, the Comrie OPR reveals that Robert Stewart, 5th of Balimeanach, was already residing at Ardvorlich as early as 1751 and styled "of Ardvorlich" by 1754. (See notes on that Robert for more information.) According to the Ardvorlich Stone, Robert Stewart 6th of Ardvorlich and Robert Stewart 5th of Balimeanach & 7th of Ardvorlich both died in 1760. This Robert is also described in the following reference from the John MacGregor (1905) Collection where he has been erroneously attached to the wrong Alexander. "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." (sic - Robert's correct parentage is shown here. The reference 1721-1751 refers to the life of Robert Stewart, 5th of Ardvorlich, not this Robert. However the description of this Robert as an "idiot" fits with the other references.) The reference to Robert "succeeding Buchanan" is of uncertain meaning. It may related to the fact that Robert's uncle, James Stewart, 4th of Ardvorlich, was at the time married to Elizabeth Buchanan, only daughter of John Buchanan, last of Buchanan. We are not aware of any Buchanan family holding Ardvorlich during this time. The fact that Robert Stewart, 6th of Ardvorlich, is described above as "an idiot" who had to be alimented (supported) by his mother for 30 years, and the fact that his successor was acting as laird while this Robert was yet still living, suggests that Robert Stewart, 6th of Ardvorlich, may have been incapable of managing the affairs of the estate and that his fourth-cousin assumed responsibility for Ardvorlich prior to actually inheriting it. The Caledonian Mercury, 22 January, 1754 contains the following entry regarding William Stewart, brother-german to the late Robert Stewart of Ardvorlich, and refers to Robert's successor, this Robert Stewart, as his nephew: "Whereas William Stewart, Supervisor of the Duties upon Salt at South-Shiells, in the County of Durham in England, brother-german of the deceast Robert Stewart of Ardvorlich, and Tutor by Law to Robert Stewart now of Ardvorlich, his nephew, has granted a factory* to James Moir, Writer in Down, for managing his said nephew's affairs, and uplifting the rents of Ardvorlich, &c. and has also named certain Commissioners in Scotland for giving directions to the Factor as to the management of his said nephew's affairs; and whereas it is necessary that the extent of the debts affecting the estate of Ardvorlich be known: the Commissioners desire the creditors to lodge their claims with James Hay, Writer to the Signer, Old Assembly-close, Edinburgh, or Thomas Drummond of Deanstoun at Deanstoun near Down, or the said James Moir; and to let their Ground of Debt be seen to any one of the persons above named on or before the 15th day of February 1754, so as a proper course may be concerted for their payment." (*The word "factory" here refers to a responsibility granted to a factor (an estate business manager). It does not refer to a manufacturing plant.) | Stewart, Robert 6th of Ardvorlich (I18135)

| 6523 | This Schneider ancestry is based only on a family tree submitted to LDS. It is not verified. | Schneider, Johannes (I14040)
|
| 6524 | This Sir Walter Dhu Buchanan married Isabel, daughter of Murduch, duke of Albany, governor of Scotland, by Isabel, countess of Lennox in her own right. With a daughter, married to Gray of Foulis, ancestor of Lord Gray, he had three sons, viz. Patrick, his successor; Maurice, treasurer to the princess Margaret, the daughter of King James the First, and Dauphiness of France, with whom he left Scotland; and Thomas founder of the Buchanans of Carbeth. | Buchanan, Sir Walter Dhu 12th of Buchanan (I2024)
|
| 6525 | This son has not been identified in any parish records. He is described in Stewarts of the South as: "a son [who is] a labourer to the Duke of Montrose. [He has] three sons at Buchanan in the Duke's works." | Stewart, Son (I18300)
|
| 6526 | This son is a suggestion only. No evidence exists to support his existence, except that Scots naming patterns and the gap in time between the marriage of his parents and the birth of their first known child demands that this Alexander Cuthbert existed and that he probably died young. | Cuthbert, Alexander (I3227)
|
| 6527 | This son is a theoretical construct to link David Cuthbert of Ardersier with his grandson James Cuthbert of Ardersier | Cuthbert, Son (I3570)
|
| 6528 | This son is mentioned in Stewarts of the South but his name is not given: "Alexander Stewart that was in Grodich, had a brother who was [a] tenant in Auchinaird [in] Glenfinglas, who left a son called Robert, late resident in Gartmore." However the chronology of this entry is nearly impossible to reconcile. The earliest reasonable birth for his son, Robert Stewart in Gartmore, would be ca. 1745. The earliest reasonable date for Robert's first son would be ca. 1770. Stewarts of the South claims that three of Robert's four sons all had children of their own, some of whom appear to have been adult age ca. 1815. It would be very difficult for Robert to be a grandfather multiple times over -- and this is using the earliest reasonable chronology. Thus it must be considered that Stewarts of the South may be in error here. There are two reasonable candidates in the Port of Menteith OPR (where Gartmore is located) for Robert Stewart in Gartmore. Both of them have an eldest son named James. These two Roberts were married in 1757 and 1773, making their births likely in the range of 1710-1750. In searching the Callander OPR for a Robert Stewart, son of James Stewart, born in Auchnahard within that range we find there is indeed one such entry: Robert Stewart, son of James Stewart in Auchnahard, born and baptized on 30 SEP 1724. This entry almost certainly must be the birth of Robert Stewart in Gartmore. If so, then the chronology shown in Stewarts of the South cannot be correct. Stewarts of the South claims that James Stewart, tenant in Auchnahard, was the brother of Alexander Stewart in Grodich. What seems chronologically more likely is that James was the brother of Alexander's father. | Stewart, Son (I18327)
|
| 6529 | This son is not identified by name in Stewarts of the South and thus is presumed to have died prior to the time of writing in 1815. | Stewart, Son (I18269)
|
| 6530 | This son is not identified by name in Stewarts of the South but is described as: "The above mentioned Robert of Branchoile had another son, who I forgot, who went to Coventry in England, [and] whose son was Sheriff of that county and some of his descendants are still there. [They are] men of property and respectability." | Stewart, Son (I18257)
|
| 6531 | This son is not identified by name in Stewarts of the South thus it is likely that he was probably dead by the time of writing (ca. 1815). | Stewart, Son (I18268)
|
| 6532 | This son is not identified by name in Stewarts of the South, but is said to have been alive at the time of writing ca. 1815. He has not been identified in public records. | Stewart, Son (I18256)
|
| 6533 | This son is not named in the OPR and is not found in the 1841 census with his parents. He is presumed to have died at birth. | Stewart, Son (I18274)
|
| 6534 | This son is shown in the 1790 census as being "under 16" years of age, however his parents are believed to have married after JUN 1788. Assuming he was born at least 9 months after his parents' marriage (not always a safe assumption for the 18th century!), then he would have been born sometime in 1789 or early 1790. He is not shown in the 1800 census and is presumed to have died as a child. His name is not recorded anywhere. | Furlow, Son (I6613)
|
| 6535 | This son may be identical with his brother James. This son is shown as a placeholder ancestor of Lines 3, 4 & 5 of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich Branch III in Auchraig. Stewarts of the South does not indicate how these branches descend from Alasdair Oig Stewart in Auchraig. They could descend from Alasdair's son James, as do lines 1, 2 & 6, but they may descend separately. | Stewart, Son2 (I18275)
|
| 6536 | This son was never named and died at birth. | Cuthbert, Son (I3568)
|
| 6537 | This son's birth is recorded as "father deceased, posthumous." | Downie, Son (I5120)
|
| 6538 | This son's death date is unknown, but he did not live long enough to even be named. | Stewart, Twin Son (I21250)
|
| 6539 | This son's death date is unknown, but he did not live long enough to even be named. | Stewart, Twin Son (I21251)
|
| 6540 | This son's existence is extrapolated from the 1828 Niagara census. It is suspected that this son died young as he is not preserved in family tradition. | Furlow, Son (I6612)
|
| 6541 | This son's name is illegible in the original OPR entry, but would be either James or John as there are no other known male names starting with J that were in use at the time. "J" is recorded as "begotten in fornication" by James Stewart in Monachyle~~ (the second half of the place name is illegible) and Janet McLaren in Auchtow. | Stewart, J___ (I16272)
|
| 6542 | This son's name is not found in any records, however his son George is identified in a charter from 1548 in which he is described as heir apparent to his uncle John Cuthbert. See notes on son George for further information. It is presumed that this son predeceased his brother, John, or he would have been next in line to inherit Castlehill ahead of his son, George. | Cuthbert, Unknown (I3557)
|
| 6543 | This son's name is not known, nor has any record been found of him. His father, Alexander, is found in 1861 residing with two granddaughters (shown as daughters of this unknown son). As the granddaughters are surnamed Stewart then it is presumed their father was a Stewart and thus they would be the children of an unknown son of Alexander. However no record of such a son has been found and there is no record of the births of these daughters in the IGI. This son and his wife are presumed to have died after the birth of their second daughter in 1860 and prior to the 1861 census. | Stewart, Son (I18321)
|
| 6544 | This son's name is unknown. | Stewart, Son (I18255)
|
| 6545 | This spouse for John S. Stewart is not certain. | Unknown, Agnes or Margaret (I19434)
|
| 6546 | This un-named son is buried in Stewart 3 Cemetery in Woodville, Wilkinson, Mississippie, USA, with his parents. His grave stone indicates that he was born in April and died in August, but the year is illegible. The year shown here of 1822 is a guess only based on the fact that his parents married in 1820 and his mother's last child from her previous marriage was born in 1819. | Stewart, Son (I25378)
|
| 6547 | This un-named son is described in Stewarts of the South as being one of the two sons of Donald Stewart who were "soldiers who performed Actions becoming the Descendants of their progenitors". That is, they were soldiers who performed heroicly and gave honour to their ancestors who had a tradition of excellent military service. | Stewart, Son (I18292)
|
| 6548 | This un-named son is described in Stewarts of the South as being one of the two sons of Donald Stewart who were "soldiers who performed Actions becoming the Descendants of their progenitors". That is, they were soldiers who performed heroicly and gave honour to their ancestors who had a tradition of excellent military service. | Stewart, Son (I18293)
|
| 6549 | This un-named son is described in Stewarts of the South as residing with his father in Summerline Flanders Moss, however there is no sign of the family in the 1814 Moss Census. | Stewart, Son (I18294)
|
| 6550 | This un-named son is described in Stewarts of the South as residing with his father in Summerline Flanders Moss, however there is no sign of the family in the 1814 Moss Census. | Stewart, Son (I18295)
