• Notes

  Jannet was born in Crieff, Perthshire, Scotland. She is the only one of her siblings to be born in Crieff parish. It is believed that her mother was from Crieff, so this would explain the unusual birth location for Jannet. Jannet's birth conflicts chronologically with her brother Archibald. It's possible that they were twins and that there was a delay in the baptism of one of them. Or one of the entries may contain an error. While Jannet's baptism indicates that she was born in 1809, the Moss Census of 1814 shows her as 7 years old, thus born in 1807. She is shown as the same age as her brother James. Jannet immigrated as a child in 1818 with her parents to Quebec, Canada. In 1825, Janet's father, Duncan Stewart is shown residing in a house with 11 occupants: 2 under the age of 6 (Charles 6 and Daniel 3); 2 between 6-14 (John 13 and Peter 9); 2 between 14-18 (Archibald 16 and Jannet 16); 2 males between 18-25 (Alexander and James D); one male over 60 (Duncan 50); one single female between 14-45 (Mary); one married female between 14-45 (unknown); and one married female over 45 (Agnes McGregor). Also residing in Dundee at the time was Robert Stewart with one child under 6, one male 18-25, and one married female between 14-45. Robert is of no known relation to Duncan. In 1851, Jannet was residing in the home of her brother, Daniel Stewart, in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. In 1861, Jannet was residing in the home of her brother, Daniel Stewart, in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. In 1871, at age 60, Jannet was residing in the home of her brother, Daniel Stewart, in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. Jannet has not been found in the 1881 census. Jannet never married and resided with her brother Daniel and his family for her entire adult life. She died at the age of 76 in St. Anicet, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada and is buried with her family at Isle of Skye Cemetery, Dundee, Huntingdon, Quebec, Canada. 04-22-1886 Janet Stewart, died at the residence of her sister in law, Mrs. D. Stewart, of St Anicet, Aged 77 years. (The Gleaner newspaper, Huntingdon, Quebec, 1886)
