• Notes

  According to Stewarts of the South (ca. 1815), Patrick Stewart was the son of Rob Mac Pharick mac Iain Du Beg Stewart. He was the father of Duncan Rioch Stewart ("Duncan with the tawny-grey hair," patriarch of 2-Line of descendnats) and John Riach Mor Stewart ("Big John with the tawny-grey hair," patriarch of 3-Line of descendants). --- Stewarts of the South says: "Patrick mac Ross mhic Pharick had two sons called Donach Rioch & Iain Riach. 1. Donach Rioch -- One of them, Duncan, a good soldier a Tacksman of Lianach [in] Glenbuckie left two sons: a son [who is] a moss laird [at] Flanders Moss [in] Summerline. [He is] an industrious man [who] has two sons with himself; and a son Duncan, his brother, [who is] a workman [in the] village of Thornhill [in] Down [Doune] parish. [He has] four sons [who are all] minors. 2. Iain Riach Mor lived at Camusbarron near Stirling [and] had four or five sons. I believe one of them was the same John Stewart who served and died with you when in the 42 Regt. John Riach Mor was a very good soldier." * Rioch and Riach, although different but similar words in Gaelic, are most likely either a transcription error for the same word here or an inconsistent phonetic spelling by the original author. Rioch means “to flail the skin” while Riach means “to cut along the surface”. Both words could be references to battle wounds. However, in this situation, they are most likely a phonetic contraction of riabhach (pronounced “ree-ah- wachk”) which means “brindled or greyish brown” indicating that the two brothers (Duncan and John) had similar tawny brown hair streaked with grey.
