• Notes

  Andrew Stewart's birthdate is estimated based on his father's estimated date of birth. His birth location is not known for sure. He was likely born before his father acquired the lands of Baldorran in 1457, so he was likely born somewhere in his great-grandmother's lands of the Lennox. Duncan Stewart (1739) says "His predecessor was Andrew, son [sic] to William Stewart of Baldorran. His sons were Alexander, and John, predecessor to the Stewarts of Blairgary." In his Addenda, he notes that Andrew Stewart, possibly ancestor of Gartnafuaroe, was witness to a charter by Walter Stewart, 3rd of Baldorran, for the lands of Emyr-Crethane. Duncan Stewart (1739) is incorrect in his accounting of Andrew as a son to William Stewart, 2nd of Baldorran; he was a brother of William Stewart, as confirmed by Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland. Gordon MacGregor (The Red Book of Scotland) indentifies a charter confirming that Andrew Stewart is styled brother to William Stewart of Balindoran when both were appointed by Royal Letters under the Seal of King James IV. dated 16 May 1495 to give Sasine for the lands of Ardbechlorne to Archibald Edmonstone of Duntreath on 26 May 1495. He had Sasine for the crown lands of Gartnaferan, in the lordship of Balquhidder, by 1503, (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland)
