Notes |
- Walter Stewart, 6th of Garchell, was compelled to subscribe to a Bond of Caution that he would keep the peace and also pay all damages which he had occasioned for intromitting with the teinds and duties of the Lordship of Coldingham in 1622. He sold the lands of Garchell to Robert Muschet of Craighead. It is not known if he had any children. There are no further records of this family. As this family predates OPRs, then it's entirely possible that Walter could have had children. However, as this family is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South, then, any descendant branches did not survive in Scotland until the early 19th century. So, either Walter had no surviving descendants, or his descendants were all female, or the entire family emigrated. (Gordon MacGregor, The Red Book of Scotland)
