The Stewarts in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland

Cadet Branch V of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich

The Tulloch Stewarts are Branch V of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich. Please refer to the Ardvorlich page for a full introduction. They are named for their residence in Balquhidder parish. They descend from the Ardvorlich family in an unknown way, but probably as a cadet branch of the “Flint” Stewarts in Lednascridan. They are described in Stewarts of the South as:

The Tulloch Stewarts, on Sir John Murray’s estate at Balquidder, are brothers to the Flints. Toun Drummadich bought by Sir John (Murray?) from the Perth family is said to belong in ancient times to a family of the name of Ross, [although] I cant say whither of Kinfauns or Craigie near Perth.

From this reference it is presumed that the patriarchs of the Tulloch and Flint branches were brothers, but just how far back those fraternal patriarchs are has not been identified.

The Other Tulloch

Researchers of this family are cautioned in that there is another property named Tulloch in Perthshire, also held by a family of Stewarts, located in Blair Atholl. The Stewarts in Tulloch in Blair Atholl are descended from the Stewarts of Fincastle and are no relation to the Tulloch Stewarts in Balquhidder. Researchers should be careful when coming across documents pertaining to Stewarts in Tulloch to make sure they pertain to the correct family.

Robert Stewart in Tulloch

Robert STEWART in Tulloch, probably b abt 1600. Alive in 1644. Robert is the subject of a renunciation by Robert Stewart in Tulloch to John Earl of Atholl, for the lands of Auchintaychonittie (adjacent to Glenogle) and Ballinluig (east side of Glenogle), possessed by Robert Stewart and his sub-tenants. Dated 15 JUN 1644, Dunkeld.

1. Unknown STEWART in Tulloch, b ABT 1630 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland
  1. Unknown STEWART in Tulloch b: ABT 1660 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. No such person has been identified in records. He is suggested as the father of:
    1. Alexander? STEWART in Tulloch b: ABT 1690 in Tulloch Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. No documentary evidence has been found for his existence. He is suggested by onomastics only. He is suggested as the father of:
      1. Dougald STEWART in Tulloch b: ABT 1720 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Dougald’s exact birth record has not been identified, though it is believed that he inherited Tulloch from his father in whose family it is believed the property had been held for several generations. Dougald is recorded in Stewarts of the South as “Dougald Stewart, late of Tulloch” and father of John Stewart in Aloa and Duncan Stewart in Ledcreich. Thus, Dougald had died before Stewarts of the South was written, ca. 1815. Dougald’s wife was cited as a witness in the 1764 paternity trial of Robert Stewart in Lednascridan. This could imply that Dougald may have been dead as early as 1764 otherwise, as head of the family, he may have been a preferred witness. The OPR data shown here is not confirmed but represents the only excellent match and thus is probably correct. OPR baptismal data indicates that Dougald Stewart married Margaret MCGREGOR, although no record of their marriage has been found. (UPDATES PENDING)
        
        Dougald’s descendants are presented as Line 1 below.
      2. John STEWART in Tulloch b: ABT 1725 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. John is described in Stewarts of the South as “John Stewart, late tenant of Tulloch”, but his exact relationship to the family is not given. However, John is also cited as a witness in the 1764 paternity trial of Robert Stewart in Lednascridan, in which John is described as a brother of Dougal Stewart in Tulloch. John is described in Stewarts of the South as having two sons: one a soldier, and the other a bleacher in Campsie, but these sons are not named.
        
        John’s descendants are presented as Line 2 below.
      3. “Two Line” STEWART in Tulloch b: ABT 1728 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Stewarts of the South lists a James and Peter Stewart among the extended family of Dougald Stewart of Tulloch, but does not indicate the nature of their relationship. It would appear that they are most likely nephews by a brother of Dougald’s whom the author either didn’t know or omitted.
        
        This unknown son’s descendants are presented as Line 2 below.
      4. James STEWART b: ABT 1730 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. James is described in Stewarts of the South as: “James Stewart, brother to Dougald Stewart of Tulloch (Line 1 above), Balquhidder, left three sons who are all in Glasgow in the Manufacturing line and all of them in good circumstances.”
        
        James’ descendants are presented as Line 2 below.
  2. Duncan? Stewart of Line 2, b. about 1670
    1. John Stewart in Tulloch, b abt 1695 (see below)
  3. Three Line
    1. “Three Line” STEWART b: ABT 1700 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Stewarts of the South shows 3-Line of the Stewarts of Tulloch descending in an unknown manner from the progenitor of the family. Given that there are only three lines of this family and that 1-Line and 2-Line are shown as sibling lines, then, in the absence of other evidence, it makes sense for now to account for 3-Line as a first-cousin line. Thus we are showing Robert Stewart and Duncan Stewart of 3-Line (below) as first cousins of Dougald Stewart in Tulloch (1-Line, above).
      1. Robert STEWART b: ABT 1730 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Robert is described in Stewarts of the South as: “Robert Stewart left one son, John, a shoemaker in Callandar.”
        
        Robert’s descendants are presented as Line 3 below.
      2. Duncan STEWART in Clachglas of Glenbuckie b: ABT 1735 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Duncan is described in Stewarts of the South as: “Duncan Stewart, late tacksman of Clachglass, Glenbuckie, left two sons.”
        
        Duncan’s descendants are presented as Line 3 below.

1 line – Dougald Stewart in Tulloch

Dougald Stewart in Tulloch is described in Stewarts of the South as:

John Stewart at Alloa, who is in the employment of the Steens of Kilbeagie, was son to the deceased Dougald Stewart, late tacksman of Tulloch. John has no sons.

John Stewart, his nephew, is a shepherd at Tulloch. He has one son who is a minor. John was son to Duncan Stewart, a late tacksman at Ledchrich, Braes of Balquhidder.

Duncan Stewart, his brother, who is a shoemaker in Campsie.

James Stewart, their brother, has gone to America.

Dougald STEWART in Tulloch b: ABT 1720 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Dougald’s exact birth record has not been identified, though it is believed that he inherited Tulloch from his father in whose family it is believed the property had been held for several generations. Dougall is recorded in Stewarts of the South as “Dougald Stewart, late of Tulloch” and father of John Stewart in Aloa and Duncan Stewart in Ledcreich. Thus, Dougall had died before Stewarts of the South was written, ca. 1815. Dougald’s wife was cited as a witness in the 1764 paternity trial of Robert Stewart in Lednascridan. This could imply that Dougald may have been dead as early as 1764 otherwise, as head of the family, he may have been a preferred witness. The OPR data shown here is not confirmed but represents the only excellent match and thus is probably correct. OPR baptismal data indicates that Dougall Stewart married Margaret MCGREGOR, although no record of their marriage has been found. They had the following children: (UPDATE PENDING)

1. Alexander STEWART b: ABT 3 JAN 1753 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and thus is presumed to have died young.
2. Mary STEWART b: ABT 23 JUL 1755 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland
3. John STEWART , in Aloa b: ABT 4 MAR 1758 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. John was described as having “no sons” but he may have had daughters.
4. Duncan STEWART , in Ledcreich and Invercarnaig b: ABT 10 MAY 1760 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. According to Stewarts of the South, Duncan resided in Ledcreich, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland and he d. bef 1815. However OPR data shows his residences at the time of his children’s births as being Invercarnaig and Blarcreich. Whether Stewarts of the South is in error on the location or whether Duncan lived in all three places is not known. The OPR data shown here is not confirmed but represents an excellent match. According to OPR data, Duncan Stewart married on 17 DEC 1783 in Balquhidder and 2 JAN 1784 in Callander parish to Margaret MCGREGOR b: ABT 1760 in Callander, Perthshire, Scotland. (Duncan of Balquhidder parish and Margaret from Callander parish). They had the following children:
  1. Dougal STEWART b: ABT 27 FEB 1785 in Invercarnaig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Dougal is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died young.
  2. Alexander STEWART b: ABT 30 JUL 1788 in Invercarnaig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died young.
  3. John STEWART , in Tulloch b: ABT 15 FEB 1788 in Invercarnaig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. John is described in Stewarts of the South as being “a shepherd in Tulloch”. He married on 23 DEC 1813 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland to Margaret STEWART (both in this parish). Her birth family is unknown. They had the following family:
    1. Duncan STEWART b: ABT 14 APR 1814 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Duncan is mentioned in Stewarts of the South as being a son of minor age.
    2. Margaret STEWART b: ABT 6 DEC 1817 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland
    3. Robert STEWART b: ABT 15 SEP 1819 in Stronslany, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland
  4. Alexander STEWART b: ABT 30 JUL 1788 in Invercarnaig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Alexander is not mentioned in Stewarts of the South and is presumed to have died young.
  5. Mary STEWART b: ABT 29 AUG 1790 in Invercarnaig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland
  6. Duncan STEWART , in Campsie b: ABT 2 JUN 1793 in Blarcreich, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. Duncan is described in Stewarts of the South as being a shoemaker in Campsie, Stirling, Scotland. Stewarts of the South mentions no children prior to 1815.
  7. James STEWART b: ABT 1796 in Blarcreich or Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. No OPR record has been found for him. James is described in Stewarts of the South as having “gone to America.” It is possible that Stewarts of the South may have his name incorrect and he may be identical with either of the earlier sons, Dougal or Alexander, however Stewarts of the South does list him last.
5. Elisabeth STEWART b: ABT 10 DEC 1762 in Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland

1. James STEWART , in Wester Invernenty b: ABT 1760 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland.

David Stewart, Moss laird, Summerline flanders moss. He has three sons, all at home.

The moss is a part of Blair Drummond estate, Kinkardine parish. This Moss is among the greatest curiosities of Scotland. It is part of the ancient estate of Drummond, gotten by the Heiress of Stobhall.

“Three Line” Stewart in Tulloch

“Three Line” Stewart, in Tulloch, b. Abt 1700, Tulloch, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland , d. UNKNOWN.

This person, whose name is not known, is described in Stewarts of the South as being the father of:

Robert Stewart left one son, John, a shoemaker in Callandar.

Duncan Stewart, late tacksman of Clachglass, Glenbuckie, left two sons.

Stewarts of the South shows 3-Line of the Stewarts in Tulloch descending in an unknown manner from the progenitor of the family. Given that there are only three lines of this family and that 1-Line and 2-Line are shown as sibling lines, then, in the absence of other evidence, it makes sense for now to account for 3-Line as a first-cousin line. Thus we are showing Robert Stewart and Duncan Stewart of 3-Line (below) as first cousins of Dougald Stewart in Tulloch (1-Line, above).

“Three Line” Stewart was the father of:

1. Robert Stewart, in Callander, b. Abt 1730, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, d. UNKNOWN

Robert Stewart, in Callander, b. Abt 1730, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland , d. Bef 1815 (Age ~ 84 years)

Robert is described in Stewarts of the South as: “Robert Stewart left one son, John, a shoemaker in Callandar.”

1. John Stewart, shoemaker, b. Abt 1760, Perthshire, Scotland , d. Aft 1815 (Age ~ 56 years)

2. Duncan Stewart, in Clachglas, b. Abt 1735, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, d. UNKNOWN

Duncan Stewart, in Clachglas, b. Abt 1735, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland , d. UNKNOWN.

Duncan’s information is presented below.

Duncan Stewart, Sr., in Clachglas

Duncan Stewart, Sr., in Clachglas, b. Abt 1735, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland , d. UNKNOWN. Duncan Stewart is the younger son of “Three Line” Stewart, shown above.

Duncan is described in Stewarts of the South as:
“Duncan Stewart, late tacksman of Clachglass, Glenbuckie, left two sons.
1. David Stewart, Moss laird, Summerline flanders moss. He has three sons, all at home.
2. Duncan Stewart, of Kirklind Flanders Moss, has four sons who are labourers about himself.”

No marriage or birth records have been found for Duncan or his sons. He was the father of:

1. David Stewart, in Summerline, b. 1768, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland, d. UNKNOWN

David Stewart, in Summerline, b. 1768, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland , d. UNKNOWN. David Stewart married on 29 Nov 1788 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland to Janet McGregor, b. Abt 1768, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland , d. UNKNOWN.

The fact that David and his brother, Duncan, both married McGregor women suggests the possibility that their wives could be sisters.

David is described in Stewarts of the South as: “David Stewart, Moss laird, Summerline flanders moss. He has three sons, all at home.” Fortunately there is only one David Stewart listed in the 1814 Moss Census as residing in Summerline which allows us to identify David and his family with confidence. No birth record has been found for David. David and his wife are recorded at the time of their marriage as being “both of this parish” (Balquhidder). The Moss Census indicates they moved to the Moss about 1794 from Balquhidder. In 1814 they are recorded as possessing 1 cat, 2 chickens and 1 cow.

15 JUN 1644 – renunciation by Robert Stewart in Tulloch to John Earl of Atholl, for the lands of Auchintaychonittie (sic adjacent to Glenogle) and Ballinluig (lower Glenbuckie), possessed by Robert Stewart and his sub-tenants. Dated 15 JUN 1644, Dunkeld. (Settlements of Western Perthshire, p. 64). These lands were later granted in 1656 to Robert Stewart in Glenogle.

The following family likely belongs to the Stewarts of Tulloch above, but given the sketchy details presented in Stewarts of the South we cannot make a confident match. The best match above appears to be 2 Line.

John STEWART and Janet STEWART in Cuill, Tulloch and Edinchip. Married 02 MAR 1793 in Balquhidder. (May be the same John Stewart who married Janet Bowie above.)

1. 1. Christian STEWART, bap. 31 AUG 1794 in second lot of Tullich. Christian married on 4 DEC 1813 in Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland to Donald STEWART in Lianach, son of Patrick Stewart in Lianach and his second wife Katherine Ferguson, of the family of the Stewarts of Strone (Glenbuckie VI).
  2. Janet STEWART, bap. 08 NOV 1795 in second lot of Tullich
  3. Margaret STEWART, bap. 16 JAN 1799 in second lot of Tullich
  4. Patric STEWART, bap. 30 JUL 1804 in Tullich
  5. Alexander STEWART, bap. 2 JUL 1805 in Cuill
  6. Anny? STEWART, bap. 4 OCT 1807 in Edinchip
