• Notes

  John Stewart was a tacksman in Balemenoch and was evicted from his lands by his cousin, William Stewart, 8th of Ardvorlich, for an unknown reason. John is recorded in Stewarts of the South as Branch 2, Line 2 of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich. The author of Stewarts of the South writes the following about John Stewart with some less-than-kind references to his cousin, William Stewart, 8th of Ardvorlich: "John Stewart, Balemeanoch, of the above family and property [Ardvorlich]. A decent friendly good man but more innocent than active. [He pays annual rent of] £150. Ardvorlich has given him a charge of removal this year to his great shame, his father being the occasion of keeping the Estate to them being a more active man that Ardvorlich's father and this is the reward of his great service. Ardvorlich like many great men of the world has got his good character very cheap and as other that get a bad character undeserved, for if he is once injured he knows not how to forgive and forget. Certainly Ardvorlich is an honest man but that cannot secure him from censure on that account, for Justice, Mercy and Charity ought to go hand in hand without which no other accomplishment can constitute a good man for we have from Scripture do Justice love mercy and walk humbly before thy God (Malachi). I have no business to interfere in this or to depreciate his Character further than to tell my opinion of him every man being allowed to judge for himself if they dont interfere with state affairs." Stewarts of the South indicates that John Stewart had three sons whose names were not recorded.
