The Stewarts in Coille Mhor on Loch Lomond

Andrew? Stewart, in Culgartmore, b. Abt 1635, Culgartmore, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN.

Alexander? Stewart’s name is not known for certain and is thus shown with a question mark. He is estimated to have been born about 1630 presumably at his father’s home of Culgartmore, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland.

In a disposition dated 14 May 1665 between Robert Stewart in Culgartmore and Sir Colin Campbell of Aberuchill, Robert is said to have had three lawful sons, the third of which was John Stewart, who received the lands of Calziemore (Callie Mor) on Loch Lommond. His elder two sons are not named.

It would be customary for the eldest son to inherit his father’s major estate which is presumed to be Culgartmore. It would be customary to name that son after the father’s father which, in this case, would be Alexander Stewart.

Alexander? Stewart may be the ancestor of some of the descendant lines shown below.

John Stewart, 1st of Calziemore,   b. Abt 1640, Culgartmore, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland , d. Oct 1710, Calziemore, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland   (Age 70 years)

Information on John Stewart, 1st of Calziemore is presented immediately below.

Mary Stewart,   b. 4 Oct 1714, Calziemore, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN.

Nothing more is known about Mary Stewart.

Katherine Stewart,   b. 31 Oct 1717, Calziemore, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN.

Nothing more is known about Katherine Stewart.

John Stewart, in Calziemore,   b. 31 Oct 1717, Calziemore, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN.

John Stewart was born 31 Oct 1717 in Calziemore, Buchanan, Stirlingshire, Scotland as the only documented son of Robert Stewart and Marjory Buchanan.

John Stewart, may be the progenitor of one of more of the descendant lines of Branch VI – The Stewarts in Coille Mor as accounted for in Stewarts of the South. It is unclear which lines may descend from this John Stewart and which lines may descend from his great-uncles, the elder sons of Robert Stewart in Culgartmore.

Stewarts of the South (c. 1815), says only the following about the origins of this family:

Branch Sixth or what is called the Stewarts of Coille mhori, [in] Buchanan “parish, [in] Stirlingshire, [on] Loch-Lomondside to whom belonged three farms now the property of the D[uke] of Montrose. viz (namely) Blair eagen and Claischoil (Glaschoil), both [of which are] in the parish of Aberfoil, [in the] Lordship of Menteith & [on the] D[uke] of Montrose’s property – with Coille mhoir and two other farms which they had free.”

It is not known if John Stewart married, and, if so, to whom, nor if he had children.

Duncan Stewart,   b. 2 Jan 1798, Drymen Village, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN. 

Duncan Stewart was born 2 Jan 1798 in Drymen Village, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland as the eldest son of John Stewart and Mary Battison. He was named after his paternal grandfather, Duncan Stewart.

He was likely still alive in 1815 as Stewarts of the South, c. 1815, says that five of John Stewart’s six sons were living. It does not indicate which ones.

Duncan has not been found in later records. (He is not the Duncan Stewart who married Jane McLaren. That is Duncan Stewart in Drymen from the Achra family – 9-Line of the Stewarts of Glenogle.)

Andrew Stewart, b. 15 Jul 1799, Drymen Village, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland , d. Between 1847 and 1851, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland   (Age 47 years).

Andrew Stewart was born 15 Jul 1799 in Drymen Village, Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland as the second son of John Stewart and Mary Battison. He was named after his maternal grandfather, Andrew Battison.

On 24 Jun 1831, Andrew Stewart and Jane Campbell had a son, Andrew in Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland, three years prior to their marriage. He was presumably illegitimate.

On 5 Apr 1834, Andrew Stewart married at Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland to Jane Campbell. Jane was three months pregnant at the time.

“1834 – Andrew Stewart, Contractor in the Village, and Jane, daughter of Hugh Campbell in Over Gartness, both in this parish, listed for proclamation of Banns, this 5th day of April 1834 and were married by the Rev’s Alex’r Lochore.” (Drymen Parish Register)

Six months later, in October 1834, Andrew Stewart and Jane Campbell had a daughter, Jane Gow Stewart.

In January 1836 at the baptism of their daughter Mary, Andrew Stewart’s employment was listed as an “undertaker” — presumably an undertaker of roads.

“Stewart, Andrew, Undertaker (of roads) at Ken-my-hame, and Jane Campbell, his wife, had a duaghter born on the 29th day of December 1835 and baptized in January 1836, named Mary.” (Drymen Parish Register)

On 19 Aug 1836, Andrew Stewart and Jane Campbell’s eldest son, Andrew, died at the age of 5. He is buried in the Drymen village cemetery.

They had another daughter, Janet in 1838, then a son Andrew in 1839 who was named after his deceased older brother.

In 1841, Andrew Stewart was residing at Ken-ma-hame in Drymen, Stirlingshire, Scotland, with his wife and children. He was employed as an agriculatural labourer. Ken-ma-hame has not been found on maps and is presumed to be a residence in Drymen Village.

Andrew Stewart is presumed to have died sometime between 1847, when his last child was born, and the next census in 1851, in which his wife is found widowed.

In 1851, Andrew’s widow, Jane Stewart, was residing at Main Street in Balfron Village, Balfron, Stirlingshire, Scotland, with her children. She is listed as an agricultural labourer’s widow and a winder of cotton yarn.

In 1861, Andrew’s widow, Jane Stewart, was residing at 1 Buchanan Street in Balfron Village, Balfron, Stirlingshire, Scotland, with her teenage sons, John and Duncan. She was employed as a washer and dresser of clothes.

Jane died in 1868.
