  Marriage Notes:

"Sir Robert Stewart was designed of Innermeath, and had two sons Sir John and Sir Robert, the elder of whom, Sir John Stewart, was ancestor of the Clan Stewart of Appin .... Sir John married, about 1386, Isobel, the younger daughter and co-heiress of John de Ergadia, Lord of Lorn ; and Sir Robert his brother married Janet, her elder sister. In 1388, Sir Robert and his wife Janet resigned their portion of the lands of Lorn in favor of Sir John, who also received from Robert II a confirmatory charter of Lorn. Sir John Stewart thus succeeded to the estates of the ancient family of the MacDougals of Lorn, and quartered the lymphad, or galley, of Lorn with his paternal coat of arms. He had five sons, Robert his successor; Archibald ; Sir James, called the Black Knight of Lorn ; Alexander, ancestor of the Stewarts of Grandtully; and William."
