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 William died about 1405, and was survived by his second wife, Egidia Herring, who afterwards married Sir William Fairlie of Brade. His eldest son,
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. As this deed is of great value in elucidating the descent of the family, we give its provisions in detail. Robert Rex. Know all men that we give and concede, and by this our present charter confirm, to our beloved and faithful Thomas de Somerville, son and heir of Sir William Somerville, and Janet Stewart, his wife, and the survivor of them, all the lands of the barony of Cambusnethan, with its pertinents, in the sheriffdom of Lanark, along with the whole annual rent paid of old to the King for the same, which barony lent belonged to our beloved cousin, 'Sir Alexander Stewart of Dernley, and Joan, his wife', and which they had resigned in hands; reserving the liferent of the said barony to the said 'Sir Alexander and Joan Stewart,' and the survivor of them.
