| Notes |
- Thoraldus is claimed by Stirling descendants to be one of the nobles brought north from England by King David I of Scotland. He was made Vicecomes (Viscount) of Strivelyn, later known as Stirling.
For the next few generations of descent I follow Stirnet. However, a look at the estimated dates indicates that there are clearly some generations missing. The descent does not become certain until John De Strivelyn of Carse and Alva on one branch and Lucas De Strivelyn of Rathern on the other.
For the ancestry of Thoraldus I follow ClanStirling.org. However they indicate an erroneous connection to the Royal Stewarts through Eve, sister of this Thoraldus and apparently wife of Alan Fitz-Walter, 1st High Steward of Scotland. ClanStirling claims that the later Stewarts came from this marriage. However Stewart sources indicate this to be doubly wrong. Alan Fitz-Walter may have married a woman named Eve however she was not the mother of his children, nor was she the same person as the sister of Thoraldus.
