| 751 | According to MacGregor, " Jean Stewart Home, d. at Argaty House, on 15 October 1806." However, her existence is hard to reconcile chronologically with her sister. Her parents was married in 1785 and her sister was born in Aug 1787 just a few weeks before her father's death. Thus she must have been born before her sister. Yet her sister, Sophia, was named as the Heiress of Argaty, which would seem to indicate that Sophia must be the oldest. The only way to fit Jean's birth in chronologically would be if they were twins. | Home-Stewart, Jean (I22255)
|
| 752 | According to MacGregor, Alexander received a charter on 30 MAR 1414 for the lands of Grantully and Aberfeldy. | Stewart, Alexander 1st of Grantully (I15037)
|
| 753 | According to MacGregor, John had a charter for Grantully upon the resignation of his father on 5 July 1470. John would have been a young boy at this point. He died shortly after his father (who died about 1488). | Stewart, John 4th of Grantully (I17153)
|
| 754 | According to MacGregor, John was alive in 1707. | Stewart, John (I17061)
|
| 755 | According to MacGregor, she married James Buchanan 2nd of Auchleshie. As no birth record has been found for her, she is likely the same child who was baptised in 1674 whose name is not recorded in the OPR. MacGregor reports that Elizabeth had children with James Buchanan, but they are not recorded in his entry on the Ballachallan Stewarts. | Stewart, Elizabeth in Ballachallan (I16080)
|
| 756 | According to MacGregor, Thomas was retoured heir to his father in the lands of Banchory on 13 March 1488. There is a clear error in the chronology here at some point. | Stewart, Thomas 5th of Grantully (I18342)
|
| 757 | According to Malcolm Gray's notes, this William was actually Wilhelmina, a daughter. IGI shows "William". | McNaughton, William McKinlay (I10945)
|
| 758 | According to Malcolm Sisson's notes, Alexander owned Copland Hill, a farm formerly just to the west of Peterhead, which has since become subsumed by the town of Peterhead. Alexander is found in 1841 residing at Copland Hill with his wife, his sons Robert and Alexander, and his brother William. Alexander is recorded as "proprietor" of Copland Hill. | Stewart, Alexander in Copland Hill (I15078)
|
| 759 | According to Malcolm Sissons, William never married and had no children. | Stewart, William (I18477)
|
| 760 | According to Malcolm Sissons: "He was apparently a clerk living in his father's house at 332 Woolwich in Guelph as recorded in the 1882-83 Vernon Directory. He did not marry. Little else is known of him." | Stewart, Alexander W. (I15099)
|
| 761 | According to Mary's parents' family Bible, Mary's birthday was 27 Mar 1858. According to the 1901 census her birthday is 22 Mar 1855. 1871 census gives her age as 13, at which time she is residing with her uncle Charles Doughnee. The family Bible date is preferred. It is presumed that Mary never married. In 1901, at age 45, she can be found living with her parents and bachelor brother, Joseph. In 1911 she is living with her widowed mother and bachelor brother, Joseph, and gives her birth year as Mar 1861. | Furler, Mary Agnes (I6495)
|
| 762 | According to McDonald's book on Lord Strathcona, Ellen received an annuity from her cousin, Donald Alexander Smith, Lord Strathcona. Ellen's marriage and children's information comes from a published family tree for the family of D'Arcy of Hyde Park. | Stuart, Ellen (I18674)
|
| 763 | According to Milnes, Robert was also a partner in the North West Company, but "drowned early on in the Columbia River trying to rescue his friends as he was the only one who could swim." | Stuart, Robert (I18742)
|
| 764 | According to Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions, John was the last of the McKinlays of the Annie. His sons all emigrated or died. His daughter Catherine remained at the Annie and married Robert McLaren. John's widow, four sons and two daughters all immigrated to North American. | McKinlay, John (I10252)
|
| 765 | According to Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions, Robert McNab of Dundurn was Capt in the 42nd Regiment of Foot (The Black Watch) and died at age 45, but no dates are given. However, as his last child was born in 1784 then his earliest possible birth would be 1739 which would have made him about 29 at the birth of his first child which is chronologically consistent. Other (unsourced) on-line trees record Robert as being a Major in the 42nd Regiment and also a medical doctor. Robert was Royal Forester in Glen Artney. Robert was the cousin-german (first cousin) of John MacNab of MacNab. According to http://www.wargs.com/royal/camilla.html, citing Burkes LG19 I:951, Robert's wife was "Mary Stuart", however this is contradicted by Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions and the Comrie OPR which both show Robert's wife as Jean Stewart of Ardvorlich. However, since Robert's eldest son, Allan, was born three years prior to Robert's marriage to Jean Stewart of Ardvorlich, it's possible that Jean was not the mother of Allan. However, the fact that Allan's son, Sir Allan Napier MacNab, visited Ardvorlich in person in 1842, suggests that he viewed her as his grandmother. According to http://www.wargs.com/royal/camilla.html citing Burke's LG19 I:951, Capt. Robert MacNab, of Dundurn, Forester of Glenartney, was the son of Robert MacNab, in turn a younger son of Robert MacNab, 14th of that Ilk. Marion MacRae's MacNab of Dundurn (1971), says "John, fifteenth Chief of MacNab, supported the House of Hanover, but an old Clan history states that many MacNabs fought for Prince Charles Edward under the leadership of cadet cheiftains, one of whom was Allan MacNab of Dundurn. The same history records that at this time, one of the MacNab ladies of Kinnell, that is of the chielfly family -- married MacNab of Dundurn." MacRae later states that this Allan MacNab was the father of Capt. Robert MacNab of Dundurn, who "was writing letters to Colonel Archibald MacNab, brother of John, fifteenth Chief, whom he addressed as his uncle, and informing him that he had sent money to "the boy" in Canada. | MacNab, Capt. Robert 2nd of Dundurn and Forester of Glen Artney (I9376)
|
| 766 | According to Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions, there is a stone in Kilmadock cemetery situated amidst the other Stewarts of Annat stones, being the oldest one, which reads, "1614. JS MH// HS." It seems likely this refers to this John dying in 1614 and that his wife's initials were MH. The HS is on a second line and may indicate a child's name. There are not a lot of families whose surnames begin with 'H' in the Kilmadock/Callander area. The most prominent ones were Haldane, Hume/Home, and Henderson/Hendrickson. | H, M (I21716)
|
| 767 | According to Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions: "Four sons of Finlay McKinlay settled at Annie of whom a grandson John McKinlay in Annie, born ca. 1645 had three sons... (see notes on John for more.)" Finlay's sons are not named but onomastics would suggest that the father of John was probably Donald. | McKinlay, Donald? of the Anie (I10320)
|
| 768 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton (great-grand-daughter to this Mary Stewart) Mary was a "sister of the Stewarts of Cashlie" in Glen Lyon, Fortingall, Perthshire, Scotland and an aunt to the Stewarts of Luskintyre, Harris, Inverness, Scotland. They were a cadet branch of the Stewarts of Garth. | Stewart, Margaret (I17695)
|
| 769 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, Angus was a banker in Callander. | McDonald, Angus (I9875)
|
| 770 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, Angus was in the army and was supposed to inherit Monachyle after the death of his brother Donald, but Angus also died before he could inherit. | McDonald, Angus (I9874)
|
| 771 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, Christian is burried in Dean Cemetery, Edinburgh. Christian's daughter, Catharine Stewart, is recorded in The Ardvorlich History as "(McDonald of) Monachyle's niece". The IGI confirms Catharine's father's name was Alexander Stewart. It is most likely that the Alexander in question would be from Christian's home area and that they were married before moving to Edinburgh as it is highly unlikely that Christian would move from Balquhidder to Edinburgh as a single woman. Thus we can have some confidence in searching for Alexander in Stewarts of the South. Two matches can be found for Alexander Stewarts residing in Edinburgh -- both were spirit dealers, both with two sons listed in Stewarts of the South and both born within two years of each other. The Alexander shown here is preferred as the entry specifies that he lived "at the foot of the Cannongate" which is where the two daughters were baptized. This entry also matches maternal onomastics. Dean Cemetery opened in 1846 so Christian must have died later than 1846. | McDonald, Christian (I9925)
|
| 772 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, Christy died in childhood. | McDonald, Christy (I9927)
|
| 773 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, Elizabeth never married and died in Glenfinglas. Inventory of the Estate of Elizabeth Stewart, Sometime Residing at Glenfinglass, Parish of Callander, d. on or about 1 Mar 1852 in Callander.Inventory made and reported by her brother, John Stewart, tenant of Cullintogle, near Callander. L 241-9-6. Registered at Dunblane, 20 Jul 1852, in the Commissary Court Books of the Western District of Perthshire, pages 310-312. | Stewart, Elizabeth (I16061)
|
| 774 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, John resided in Blarcrioch in Balquhidder parish however his children were all born in Callander and Port of Menteith. It's not known if Mrs Stewart of Milton is in error or if perhaps John resided in Blarcrioch after his children were all born or before. | McDonald, John (I9941)
|
| 775 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, John was "of Craigrui" and died unmarried. After the death of John's older brother, Donald McDonald of Monachyle, John inherited Monachyle. On John's death, Monachyle and Craigruie passed to his nephew and namesake, John McDonald Stewart, son of his sister Agnes and her husband, Duncan Stewart, on the condition that John McDonald Stewart changed his surname to McDonald, in order to keep Monachyle in the McDonald name. John McDonald Stewart changed his name to John McDonald Stewart McDonald. | McDonald, John of Monachyle and Craigruie (I9942)
|
| 776 | According to Mrs Stewart of Milton, Margaret Stewart was born June 1768 and was a sister of the Stewarts of Cashlie. | Stewart, Margaret (I17696)
|
| 777 | According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's Account, "Duncan Stewart, my only brother, lived there [Duart] for some time with his uncle Alexander. Duncan left and went to live about Dunblane." The Ardvorlich History says that Duncan married Mary Liddon although no record of their marriage has been found. Duncan is found in 1891 residing in Glenfinglas Farm House, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland with 24 year old Mary A Leyden, b 1867 in Dunblane, Perthshire. She is employed as Duncan's housekeeper. Thus, it would appear that Duncan married his housekeeper. They have not been found in 1901. | Stewart, Duncan (I15767)
|
| 778 | According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's Account, Alexander died at Glasgow University while studying for the ministry. | Stewart, Alexander (I14795)
|
| 779 | According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's Account: "James who married Cath. Stewart from Edinburgh - he was in the Braes of Balquhidder." According to The Ardvorlich History, James and Catherine Stewart had no children. According to the Glasingall trial documents, James Stewart resided in Auchnahard and was a claimaint for the Glasingall estate. He later resided in Inverlochlarig "in the Braes." | Stewart, James in Auchnahard and Inverlochlarig (I16417)
|
| 780 | According to Mrs. Stewart of Milton's Account: "John who was in the Braes [of Balquhidder] afterwards. John died unmarried in 1872. He at one time managed farms in Glenlyon for his uncles. They had Cashlie & Auch. John then came to Lanrick and afterwards went to the Braes [of Balquhidder]." The Glasingall trial records indicate he was a farmer in Glenlyon. In 1871, John was residing in Inverlochlarig with his brother, Alexander. This farm was also the residence of his sister and brother-in-law, Margaret Stewart and Alexander McNaughton. | Stewart, John in Glenlyon and Inverlochlarig (I16941)
|
| 781 | According to One World Tree and Malcolm Gray, this Malcolm later immigrated to Elgin and Middlesex Counties in Ontario, Canada and then to Quebec, Canada or ended up in Chatham, Kent, Ontario, Canada. However these sources are hopelessly contradictory and it would appear they have confused two different Malcolm's together. Thus, information on Malcolm's wife or wives and children, other than his son Duncan, is considered questionable at this point. | McNaughton, Malcolm (I10898)
|
| 782 | According to One World Tree, John and Elizabeth had a son named John B Arnold. No birth record has been found for him and he has not been found in any census record. His existence is not confirmed. | Arnold, John B (I200)
|
| 783 | According to OneWorldTree, her last name may be Gilmour. | Gilmour, Elizabeth (I6980)
|
| 784 | According to Patrick Stewart's family history, recorded by his son Charles, "Elizabeth his wife, daughter to Doctor Duncan Menzies and his wife Margaret, daughter to Robert Menzies, cousin-german to Sir Robert Menzies, of Weem, and grandfather to the present Sir Robert and William Stewart, brother-german to the said Patrick." | Menzies, Elizabeth (I11205)
|
| 785 | According to Plumb's History of Luzerne, Jane Brown, daughter of Alexander Brown and Mary Tyler, married Jesse Lee. Plumb gives no further information on the couple. A Lee Family Tree at Ancestry gives more detailed information showing Jesse Lee's birth as shown here as well as the names of their five children. No dates are given for any of the children. The dates shown here are merely estimates based on later census records. The Lee Tree shows Jesse Lee having died 17 AUG 1839 in Eatonville, Wyoming County, Pennsylvania, US, which is consistent with the Browns living in the same area. Census records show the family residing consistently in Eaton Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA from 1810-1840. Widow Jane Lee is found in 1840 residing in Eaton, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, with a family consisting of one male 10-14yrs, 2 males 20-29, 1 female 50-59. She is found residing next door to Philip Lee and a few doors away from her brother James Brown. None of the Lee children have been successfully identified in the 1850 census. | Brown, Jane (I20509)
|
| 786 | According to Plumb's History of Luzerne, Sarah Brown, daughter of Alexander Brown and Mary Tyler, married Gideon Underwood. Underwood sources give Sarah's place of birth as Mercer (or Mercer Township), Pennsylvania, however Mercer is clear across the other side of the state, about 400 miles west of Luzerne and seems unlikely. Sarah can be found in census records from 1810-1850 consistently residing in Forty Fort, Kingston Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA with her husband and children as shown here. | Brown, Sarah (I20498)
|
| 787 | According to Records of the Clan and Name of Fergusson, Ferguson, and Fergus. (Edited for The Clan Fergus(s)on Society by James Ferguson and Robert Menzies Fergusson by David Douglas, 10 Castle Street, Edinburgh, 1899.) II. Alexander, son of Duncan F., married Helen Stewart, Glenbuckie. He removed from Tornnadrochig to Stronvar, and died in 1886, aged 82. I. Janet, married Duncan M'Alpine, Balquhidder. 2. Margaret, married Mr. M'Gregor, Westleys, near Bridge of Allan, whom she survives. 3. Duncan, in Stank Farm, Callander. 4. Catherine. 5. Mary. 6. Helen, married Donald M'Laren, Ardtalnaig, Lochtayside. 7. John, died young. 8. Christina, married Peter Colquhoun, schoolmaster, Balquhidder, whom she survives. 9. Peter, still in Stronvar. Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions shows a family of Fergusons in Stronvar back to 1700 commencing with a John Ferguson. | Ferguson, Alexander in Tornnadrochig and Stronvar (I5916)
|
| 788 | According to Records of the Clan and Name of Fergusson, Ferguson, and Fergus. (Edited for The Clan Fergus(s)on Society by James Ferguson and Robert Menzies Fergusson by David Douglas, 10 Castle Street, Edinburgh, 1899.) Helen Ferguson and her siblings were born at Kipp in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, but later resided at Glenbeich on the northwest shore of Lochearn. According to Cameron family records, Catherine Stewart, daughter of Donald Stewart and Isobel McGregor, married Duncan Cameron, and were the parents of John Cameron who married Helen Ferguson of Kipp, Balquhidder, and had nine children born at Glenbeich, Balquhidder. Documentary evidence is lacking to support the Cameron/Stewart connection, however the claim seems probably true. The Stewarts were from Dalveich, next door to Glenbeich, and multiple autosomal DNA connections exist between descendants of the Camerons and this Dalveich line. The Camerons immigrated to Canada in 1831. Research has eliminated the possibility of a marital connection between these families post-immigration, thus the connection must earlier than John Cameron and Helen Ferguson. Thus the connection suggested here, though not proven, becomes more than plausible, in fact probable. After the death of her husband, Helen (Eleanor), lived with her son John and his family. She is found residing with them in 1851 and 1861. | Ferguson, Helen (I22919)
|
| 789 | According to researcher, Richard Smith, Claudette was a "Fille du Roi" ("Daughter of the King"). The "Filles du Roi" were single, young women who were sent from France to New France (Quebec) as suitable brides for the soldier/settlers. The earliest French settlers in New France were soldiers who were encouraged to stay and settle in New France, however there was a distinct shortage of women for them to marry and have children with. Thus the French King Louis XIV established the "Filles du Roi" program. | Des Chalets, Claudette (I4815)
|
| 790 | According to Rose of Kilravock, Lilias was the sister of William Hayof Delgaty. | Hay, Lilias (I7665)
|
| 791 | According to Ruth Brown's 1973 Family Tree, the earliest immigrant ancestor of this family was an Alexander Brown who "came from Northern Ireland and settled in Reading, Pennsylvania." Research on the later generations allows us to estimate Alexander's birth as circa 1710. DNA research confirms a genetic link between these Browns and a family of Browns who are found in the mid-19th century residing in Tandragee, County Armagh, Northern Ireland. The most recent common ancestor between these two branches is estimated as having lived sometime in the 17th century (possibly somewhat earlier). As such it is most likely that this Alexander came from the same place in Northern Ireland, so his place of birth is recorded here as probably being in County Down, Ireland. Little more is known about this Alexander Brown except that he had a son who moved to the Wyoming Valley in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA in 1786 and had a family there. Plumb's 1885 History of Hanover Township, Luzerne County identifies the name of this son as Alexander Brown who married Mary Tyler. It is not known if the senior Alexander Brown had any other children, nor if he had any siblings who also came to America. It is possible that Alexander Jr's migration to Luzerne County in 1786 may be coincident with the death of his father, this Alexander Brown. There was a massive exodus of Ulster-Scots to the Colonies, beginning in 1720, primarily arriving Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA and embarking west into the Appalachians. That would appear to fit the pattern for Alexander Brown. | Brown, Alexander (I20497)
|
| 792 | According to Ruth Brown's tree, the Brown family came from Berks County, Pennsylvania, USA to Kingston, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania in 1786. Thus James was most likely born in Kingston. According to Plumb's 1885 History of Hanover Township, James Brown, son of Alexander Brown and Mary Tyler, "went to Wayne County." (sic, Wyoming County) According to Joan Huston: "James was the first Protonotary (principal clerk notary or probate officer) for Wyoming County. Buried in the Old Brick Cemetery, Eaton Township, Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. according to the Wyoming County Historical Society. According to Alverta Brown Martin's book "Pacific Northwest Grandfathers", he was buried in the Harding Cemetery." The former is correct. In 1830 (prior to the formation of Wyoming County), James Brown is found residing in Eaton, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, USA, with the following family: one male 0-4, one male 5-9, one male 30-39, two females 0-4, one female 5-9, 3 females 10-14, one female 30-39. James is the only Brown in Eaton in 1830. These ages coincide with James and his wife and children. In 1833, there is listed a Justice James Brown. There is no other James Brown known to be residing in Eaton at the time, so it is presumed to be this James Brown. In 1840 James was residing in Eaton, Luzerne, Pennsylvania, USA, with the following family: one male 10-14, one male 15-19, one male 40-50, two females 10-14, one female 15-19, two females 20-30, and one female 40-50. These ages coincide with James and his wife and younger children. He was residing nearby to his sister Jane Lee (nee Brown). In 1850 (after the formation of Wyoming County), James was residing in Eaton, (now in) Wyoming, Pennsylvania, USA as a widowed farmer with his children Martha, James and Mary. His son, Ryder, was residing nearby in Tunkhannock, Wyoming, Pennsylvania, USA. His age was given as 18. He was a farmer and residing with E. Jenkins and family. James death record gives his death as 29 JUN 1861, age 70 years, 9 months and 17 days. Gravestone transcription from Old Brick Church Cemetery, Eaton, Wyoming, Pennsylvania, USA: BROWN, James, Esq., d: 29 June 1861 70y 9m 17d "My Father Sleeps"; Martha, h/w, d: 31 Mar 1837 41y 9d (Illegible); Mary, h/w, was drowned in Bowman's Creek 27 Apr 1850 50y 26d --------------------------------------- Sam Gibson, custodian of The Browns of Priesthill database at Ancestry (http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/4962108/person/-1517567580), shows this James Brown as son of Alexander Brown (12 JUN 1763 in Big Springs, Pennsylvania, USA - 1791 in Browns Mill, Pennsylvania, USA) and Mary Tyler with children born 1780-1791 (as per Huston). Gibson shows Alexander as a son of James Brown (1724-1780) and Mary McClelland. This latter James Brown being a grandson of John Brown of Priesthill via his posthumous son John Brown (1684-1740). There appears to be no basis in evidence to make such a connection and DNA evidence has now excluded our Browns from likely descent from Priesthill. --------------------------------------- "I have his death record from Wyoming County Historical Society that has his death as 29 June 1861 and he was 70 years 9 months and 17 days old. This date evidently appears on his gravestone Old Brick Cemetery Eaton Township, Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. He was married 3 times, first two wives died in 1837 and 1850. I have two different books that put his birthdate in September 1791." Per Joan Huston, email on 1/12/2008. Birth date is calculated using death date and age at death from gravestone. | Brown, Justice James W. (I1677)
|
| 793 | According to Severence, "he is mentioned in his father's will and no further trace." | Stewart, Samuel (I24476)
|
| 794 | According to Severence, she married her cousin, John Stewart. | Stewart, Rebecca (I24477)
|
| 795 | According to SOS, he was a shoemaker in Callander. | Stewart, Son (I18214)
|
| 796 | According to Sprigg family records, Arthur was an attorney in Maryland. | Steuart, Arthur Baxter (I22299)
|
| 797 | According to Sprigg family records, in 1798, Rebecca inherited Sparrow's Nest plantation and other lands in Patapsco Neck, Maryland, USA, from her late father. Her lands included the contiguous estates of Lloyd's Point, Prevention, Howell Powell, and Ridgely estates. These latter estates went to her son Richard Spriggs Steuart. | Sprigg, Rebecca (I14466)
|
| 798 | According to Spriggs family records and Nelker, Mary never married. | Steuart, Mary Elizabeth (I22479)
|
| 799 | According to Stewart Clan Magazine, Alexander succeeded his uncle John in Ballchulish. Alexander was at Sheriffmuir in 1715 and at Culloden in 1746. Extract of Marriage betwixt Alexander Stewart Esquire younger of Balachelish with consent of John Stewart of Balachelish his father and Isobel Stewart daughter of the said Alexander Stewart fourth of Annat with consent of her father dated 24 February and 30 March 1725. | Stewart, Alexander 4th of Ballachulish (I15006)
|
| 800 | According to Stewart Clan Magazine, this Dugald Stewart was the son or descendant of Donald Stewart of Auchnaquone. "Donald Stewart of Auchnaquone, Argyleshire, who had brothers Alexander, Duncan, Alan and Dugald, was descended from Dugald Stewart of Auchnaquone, third son of Sir Alan Stewart of Appin. There are five or six generations unaccounted for. 'The old and valuable papers of the Achnacone|Auchnaquone| family,' said THE STEWARTS OF APPIN, 1880, 'have, unfortunately, been lost.'" (Edson, George, Stewart Clan Magazine, Tome G, December 1956, vol. 34, no. 6, pp.177-179.) Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) shows some of the intervening missing generations but gives no further information on Dugald other than his name. Dugald was one of the members of the party who sailed with Patrick Stewart, 5th of Ledcreich, from Scotland to Cape Fear, North Carolina, USA, in 1739. Dugald Stewart is listed in 1740 as receiving a land grant in Bladen County for 640 acres, in which he is listed immediately following Patrick Stewart of Ledcreich. Dugald is also listed as settling in Harnett County in 1740 (probably the same place.) Stewart Clan Magazine says: "Dugald Stewart apparently came from Scotland, with his wife and some children, in 1739 in the same influx of highland settlers as Patrick Stewart. Dugald died, intestate, prior to Apr. 13, 1756, when Thomas Stewart, his "oldest son and heir at law," sold 200 of the 640 acres to John Rea. Thomas died about 1760, leaving issue an only child, Elizabeth. This Elizabeth Stewart never married, and at her death some time after Apr. 7, 1812, she devised her plantation (apparently the remaining 440 acres of her father's estate) to her cousins -- Robert, Hector and Dugald Stewart... Elizabeth's cousins -- Robert, Hector and Dugald Stewart -- almost had to be grandsons of Dugald through a younger brother of Thomas." (Edson, George, Stewart Clan Magazine, Tome G, February 1957, vol. 34, no. 8, pp.185-188.) | Stewart, Dugald in Achnacone (I15747)
