    • Alexander Stewart is believed to be the son of John Stewart, formerly MacGregor, of Lagry in Dunbartonshire, Scotland. The name MacGregor was changed to Stewart after the name MacGregor had been outlawed in Scotland in the early 17th century.

      Alexander's Stewart/MacGregor patrilineal ancestry is discussed in an article in The Genealogists' Magazine (1936, Vol. 7, pp. 302-309, 516-520).
