• Notes

  Mary Stewart was born in 1774 in Easter Ardeonaig, Killin, Perthshire, Scotland. Her mother's name at her baptism was recorded as Kat. McKercher. ("S.D. Alex'r Stuart and and Kat. McKercher Easter Ardeonaig had their lawful dau'r bap. called Mary." Killin OPR) According to The Stewarts of Ardvorlich Vol 3, Mary Stewart "married Duncan Ferguson, firstly a shepherd at Gleninishach, Balquhidder, latterly a crofter at Coilcreich." Gleninishach (Glen Ishag) is located in the uppermost Braes of Balquhidder west of Drumlich. Coilcreich is adjacent to Ardveich. On 1 DEC 1799, in Port Menteith, Perthshire, Scotland, Mary Stewart married Duncan Ferguson. The record indicates they were both in Port of Menteith parish at the time. It's not known why they were married so far away in Port of Menteith. It's possible the Port of Menteith marriage could be a different couple with the same names, but the date is a perfect match and the Port of Menteith OPR shows no couple by that name having children in the years after 1799. In 1851, at age 75, Mary Stewart was residing in Coilcreich in Glenbeich, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland, with her husband Duncan Ferguson (75).
