• Notes

  Duncan Stewart (1739) says, "Alexander, now of Annat, married Isabel Fullerton, daughter to Mr John Fullerton of Greenhall, Bishop of Edinburgh, by whom he had John, his son and heir, Duncan, a surgeon, who died in the East Indies, and several daughters." Alexander was only 15 years old when his father died, so he was placed in the care of his paternal uncle Duncan Stewart of Ballachallan on 14 June 1695. (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland) Alexander is referenced in the following: "Excerpts from Charter of Resignation of the said lands of Annat by the Earl of Perth in favour of the said Alexander Stewart fourth of Annat, his son, in fees dated 4 February 1688 and from Confirmation of said Charter of Resignation in favour of the same parties dated 16 March 1688." (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland) Alexander's exact date of death is not known. He was still alive in 1752 at the time of the Appin Murder trial as his son, John, was summoned as a witness, in which he is referred to as "younger of Annat" or "the son of the family." His burial and his son's are conspicuously absent from the Old Kilmadock cemetery. It's possible they fled and died elsewhere or the stones have decayed.
