| 7713 | XI. Francis Buchanan-Hamilton, M.D., of Spittal, Bardowie and Leny, succeeded his brother, John Buchanan-Hamilton. "In 1828, he was served heir male to his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, Walter Buchanan of Spittal, and established his claim, in absence of other competitors, as Chief of the Clan of Buchanan." "Francis Buchanan was born at Branziet, Stirlingshire, 15th February, 1762. He studied for the medical profession at the University of Edinburgh, and received his degree in 1783; after travelling for some years he was, in 1794, appointed surgeon in the Honourable East India Company's service on the Bengal establishment. On his arrival in India, he was sent with Captain Symes on his mission to the Court of Ava in a civilian capacity. In 1800, he was chosen to examine the state of the country which the Company's forces had lately conquered from Tippoo Saib, together with the Province of Malabar; and in 1802 he accompanied Captain Knox on his embassy to Nepal. On his return, he was appointed to the staff of the Marquis Wellesley, then Governor-General. In 1805, he went with the Marquis to England, and in the following year was again sent out by the Court of Directors for the purpose of making a statistical survey of the territory under the Presidency of Fort-William, which comprehends Bengal proper, and several of the adjoining districts. In 1814, on the death of Dr. Roxburgh, he succeeded him as superintendent of the Botanical Garden. He returned to Scotland in 1815, and spent the latter years of his life at Leney, in Perthshire, an estate to which his father had succeeded as heir of entail, and which, on the death of his elder brother, Colonel Hamilton, without children, came into his " possession, with the other family estates, when he assumed his mother's name of Hamilton. He was the author of Travels in the Mysore, then published, under the patronage of the Court of Directors, in 1807; 'The History of Nepal,' 1818; 'A Genealogy of the Hindoo Gods,' 1819; and 'An Account of the Fishes of the Ganges,' with plates, 1822. He also contributed largely to various literary and scientific journals; was a member of several societies, and a Fellow of the Royal Societies of London and Edinburgh." He married Anne Brock, daughter of Andrew Brock, and died at Leny on the 15th June, 1829, having had issue (with a daughter, Catherine, who died unmarried in 1839) an only son. | Buchanan-Hamilton, Dr. Francis MD FRS 11th of Spittal Bardowie and Leny (I30267)

| 7716 | [James Stewart] had an only child, Ann, who married (in 1794) Edward Tonge. A news- paper published at Charleston, in its issue of Tuesday, Nov. 3, 1794, gave a brief announcement of the wedding of Edward Tonge, esq., of St.Paul's parish (Colleton) and Miss Ann Stewart of St.George's Dorchester. This would indicate that Ann's father resided, or had resided, in St.George's parish, Dorchester. And this suggests that he, very likely, belonged to the same family of Stewarts as the Duncan Stewart of St.George's Dorchester whose will, dated May 1, 1746, and probated July 5, 1748, named his brothers and sisters John of St. Paul's parish, who had sons James and John; Daniel; Alexander, Janet; Grizel; Elspeth; and Margaret, F: 174. The surname was spelled Stuart in the will. Edward Tonge, esq., was born Sep. 13, 1769, son of John & Susanna Tonge, and died Oct. 18, 1809, at his mansion house on Cane Acres in St.Paul's parish, as shown by a tombstone "Erected to his memory by his most affectionate wife Ann" in an old graveyard by the side of the road between Bacon's Bridge and Charleston. Ann was Edward's second wife, he having married when rather young Elizabeth Murray, who was born Oct. 25, 1772, in Charleston, and died July 15, 1788, in thar city, aged 15 years and 8 months, as stated on a stone erected by her husband in 1794. Ann's mother-in-law, Susanna Tonge, continued to reside at Cane Acres until her death Aug. 18, 1828, at the age of 86 years. Ann had no children by Edward, and awhile after his death in 1809 she married a man named Gist and went to live in Union County, S. C. There Mr. Gist died, and some time afterward she died, childless. In her possession was a big bible which had belonged to her father, James Stewart, and placed within it was the family lineage running back to King Robert II of Scotland which her grandfather, Patrick Stewart, had had his son Charles write out from "uncontroverted history." A brother of Ann's second husband, upon request, sent "this ancient paper" to Morgan Brown, who married Elizabeth Little, born Nov. 24, 1765, daughter of William and Catherine (Stewart) Little. Elizabeth Little was a cousin to Ann. (Edson, George. Stewart Clan Magazine, Vol. 34, Tome G, No. 8, Feb. 1957.) | Stewart, Ann (I14552)

| 7720 | [Stewarts of Mountsberg.FTW] The family came from Badenoch, Invershire, Scotland. It's likely, therefore, that they were original settlers in Badenoch, Ontario and named the town after their hometown in Scotland. | Kennedy, Catherine (I8387)

| 7722 | “1782. John Stewart in this parish and Janet Deur in the parish of Kilmadock were listed 18th August and married 30th ditto (July).” (Callander Parish Register) (Why the parish clerk chose to write "ditto" instead of "July", which is a shorter word, is puzzling.) This John Stewart and family are mentioned in Mitchell's Monumental Inscriptions for Kilmahog Cemetery in Callander Parish: 25 1859. John STEWART, farmer (at) Portnelan, 1 AUG 1802, age 66, wife Janet DEWAR, 4 NOV 1827, age 70, son John, farmer (at) Portnelan, died 21 MAY 1833, age 42, son Daniel, banker (at) Doune, 21 MAR 1857, age 69, age 69, son Alexander, 10 MAR 1858, age 66, son John died (in) infancy, son William died (in) infancy, daughter Jane died 30 NOV 1866, age 80.
