Notes |
- John Stewart, 2nd of Benmore, bought the lands of Glenbuckie from his ailing brother-in-law, Alexander Stewart, 12th Glenbuckie. John and Mary had no children. On his death the estate of Glenbuckie passed to his sister Elizabeth, then to her son, and finally to John's half-brother, Duncan.
Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland, says, "JOHN STEWART OF BENMORE AND GLENBUCKIE, in favour of whom and in implementation of his parent’s marriage contract in which it was stipulated that he would infeft the heir-male in all lands obtained during the marriage, his father granted him a disposition of the lands of Corriecherich, the pendicle of Inveronacher and the forest of Benmore on 18 March 1744. He sold those lands to John Campbell, Earl of Breadalbane, by Disposition dated 6 March 1756 and purchased Glenbuckie from his wife's family. He married on 8 August 1752, to Margaret, daughter of Alexander Stewart of Glenbuckie, and dsp in 1760, when he was succeeded by his sister, Elizabeth."
