Notes - Margaret's birth family is not known. It seems likely that she came from the eastern side of Balquhidder parish as she married into a Stronslany/Strathyre family. Onomastics suggests her father's name was likely Alexander, Robert, or possibly Duncan.
Possible matches for Margaret's birth include:
Margaret Stewart, bap 2 NOV 1767 in Wester Achtow, daughter of Robert Stewart and Margaret Feguson. (This seems the most likely candidate based on geography and is so far unaccounted for in our database.)
1772 Janr 3d Duncan Stewart and Anna McLaren in Wester Auchtow had a child baptized and called Margaret. (This candidate is least likely for onoastics.)
1774 Aprile 14th Alexr Stewart and Anna Fisher in Blarchrioch had a child baptized and called Margaret. (This candidate is unlikely as she's at the far west end of Balquhidder parish.)
An outlier possibility is:
1765 March 3rd Patrick Stewart and Christian Stewart in Lichscridan had a child baptized and called Margaret.
