Notes

"Neither Sir Alexander nor his son, Alexander Stewart of Galston, married a Turnbull, as is often stated. Registrum magni sigilli regum Scotorum [supra note 7], 684 (index), incorrectly identifies his wife as Johanna (or Joneta) de Keth, who actually married his son (The Genealogist 12 [1988]: 83, Nos. 1024-25)."
"Other sources such as Scots Peerage, vol. 1 p. 276, place this daughter with Margaret Fraser, but the Genealogist puts her with Sir William Keith and an [Unknown] More." See The Genealogist, Spring 2009, vol. 23 no. 1 p. 74:2051. [18]

  • Sir Thomas, succeeded. He, as already mentioned, had, in July, 1392, a charter, under the Great Seal, confirming to him and his wife the barony of Cambusnethan.
