• Notes

  David Steuart fought for the British during the Revolutionary War, but returned to Maryland where he died in 1814 and is buried at Dodon, the family estate. He tried unsuccessfully to sue his niece Sophia Home-Stewart for the lands of Ballachallan and Argaty in Scotland. MacGregor says, "David Stewart, who is included in litigation by his niece Sophia Home Stewart." David never married and had no children. He inherited Dodon from his father and is referred to in records as "David Steuart of Dodon." He also aquired the estate called Obligation. He died intestate and left a large and wealthy estate which was acquired by his brother William. (Nelker) He should not be confused with his contemporary Dr. David Stuart who married this David's sister-in-law, Eleanor Calvert.
