Agnes Stewart,   b. Abt 1730, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN. 

Agnes Stewart’s birth is not confirmed. No record of her birth has been found. She married in 1751 to Robert Stewart in Lochchon. Their second son was named Duncan, suggesting that Agnes’ father’s name was likely Duncan. Their fourth child was born in Achray. There was a Duncan Stewart in Achray at the time who is the right age to be Agnes’ father. Both families had connections to Duniverig on Loch Chon and Achray.

Marriage and Children

This Agnes Stewart may be the one who married on 9 Nov 1751 in Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland  to her cousin Robert Stewart, in Lochchon,   b. Abt 1725, Loch Chon, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN. They had the following family:

1. 1. John Stewart,   b. 9 Mar 1753, Wester Frenich, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN
   2. Duncan Stewart,   b. 31 Aug 1755, End of Lochchon, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN
   3. Mary Stewart,   b. 13 Aug 1758, Lochchon, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN 
   4. Katharine Stewart,   b. 8 Mar 1764, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN

This family is also shown below under 3-Line.

Janet Stewart,   b. Abt 1740, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. Aft 1805  (Age > 66 years).

In his 1805 Will, Smith Stewart, son of James Stewart of Tar, names his cousins, “Christian and [illegible] Gardiner”, daughters of his aunt, Mrs Janet Gardiner. It is not specified on which side she is an aunt. For now it is presumed that she was his father’s sister, Janet Stewart. She may have been a maternal aunt.

Janet Stewart,   b. Abt 9 Sep 1757, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. Bef 1763  (Age < 5 years)

Janet Stewart is presumed to have died in infancy or childhood prior to the birth of her same-named sister in 1763.

John Stewart, in St. Thomas Jamaica,   b. 6 Oct 1758, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. Between 1808 and 1815, St. Thomas, Jamaica   (Age 49 years).

John is described in Stewarts of the South (c. 1815) as being already deceased along with all of his brothers. John is the only son of James Stewart of Tar to be mentioned in the notes in Mitchell’s Monumental Inscriptions for the monument inscription of his father.

“12 (at top – a pelican plucking its breast, on her nest) (in Latin) Katharine STEWART, 24 DEC 1735, husband James STEWART esquire of Tar (Mitchell notes: Duncan STEWART in Achray (sic “Auchrig”), feuer of Tar in Ruskie in 1754, son James succeeded him in 1784 and died before 1811 – son John, daughters Janet, Anne, etc, two wives).”

John is named as executor to his brother Smith Stewart in the 1805. Thus, John Stewart died sometime after 1805 (and likely after his brother Smith’s death in 1808, or another executor would have been appended) and before the writing of Stewarts of the South, c. 1815-1820.

He had no known children.

David Stewart, b. 16 Aug 1761, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland , d. Bef 1815  (Age < 53 years)

David is described in Stewarts of the South (ca. 1815) as being already deceased. Nothing more is known of him.

Janet Stewart, b. 16 Aug 1763, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland , d. 1826, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland   (Age 62 years) 

Janet Stewart is mentioned in the 1805 Will of her brother Smith Stewart, in which she is identified as the wife of Robert McNab, a manufacturer in Glasgow, with two daughters and plural sons (unnamed). Janet and her daughters were generously provided for in Smith’s will.

Her own will in 1826 identifies her has Janet McNab, formerly Stewart of Glasgow, Lanarkshire, relict of the deceased Robert McNab, merchant in Glasgow. First page is pretty much unreadable; appears she appoints James Buchanan, David Laird, Archibald Brown & Alexander McGregor as trustees. They are to reserve 2400 pounds (or an amount they deem suitable) for the behoof of her daughters Catharine McNab and Helen(?) McNab in liferent and any children they may have in fee.

Smith Stewart, Millwright in Jamaica,   b. 23 Feb 1770, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. Sep 1807, Font Hill, Saint Thomas, Jamaica   (Age 37 years).

Smith Stewart was a successful millwright who went to St. Thomas in Jamaica where he appears to have prospered. His Will indicates that he owned slaves and had a substantial estate. He also had a residence at Ceril Street in Strand, Westminster, Middlesex, England (presently part of the city of London.)

Smith Stewart never married nor had children. His Will (written 2 Dec 1805) dicates that his entire estate should be sold and, after any debts paid, the remainder to go to various family members. He especially singles out sisters and nieces for the bulk of his bequests and excludes brothers and nephews. This is presumably because the men would be expected to make a living on their own means at the turn of the 19th century and the women would be more likely in need of financial support.

Smith Stewart died in Sep 1807 in Font Hill, St. Thomas, Jamaica.

Stewarts of the South (c. 1815) notes that Smith Stewart was already deceased at the time of writing.

* The eldest son is likely excluded because he would be expected to take care of himself financially. Smith Stewart is deliberate in leaving the bulk of his estate to women who would have less of a chance of financial prosperity and therefore more in need of assistance.

Anne Stewart,   b. 23 Dec 1772, Achray, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland ,   d. UNKNOWN 

Anne Stewart is identified in the 1805 Will of her brother Smith Stewart as the wife of Hugh MacFarlane, Esquire, of Coilachra, and has having at least two daughters and one son in 1805.

Coilachra was on the north shore of Loch Katrine towards the west.

In his 1805 Will, Smith Stewart names his niece, Janet Carmichael, then residing in Auchray in Aberfoyle parish. As he was unmarried, to be his niece, she would have to be the daughter of one of his sisters. The only sister unaccounted for is Margaret Stewart. Thus, we conclude that Janet Carmichael must be the daughter of Margaret Stewart and an unknown father.

She was residing with the family of Robert Stewart, age 45, (suggested here as her brother). Her relationship to Robert is not indicated. She is not his wife as his wife is shown. She is too young to be his step-mother (if his father remarried). She is about the right age to be his older sister, born just after their parents were married — acknowledging that the 1841 census often rounded ages to the nearest 5.

Her husband John Buchanan declared on the 1911 census that he immigrated in 1849, however John Buchanan and Janet Stewart had their first child in 1844 and married in 1845 in Huron, Ontario, Canada, so they must have immigrated prior to 1844.
