• Notes

  He is likely the James Stewart in Daldoran who witnessed the baptism of his brother Patrick's first son, John, in 1773. **James Stewart is described in Stewarts of the South as: "James Stewart, their cousin, [a] tenant in Wester Torrie [in] Port [of Menteith] parish, [of which] one [of the name of] Buchanan [is the] proprietor [of that property]. [James] has four sons: two with himself and two in the West Indies." -- This is no longer believed to be correct. This James Stewart in Wester Torrie was too young to have had two sons in the West Indies c. 1815 who'd made a fortune.**
