Place in the Legendary Scottish Stewart Ancestry

An account by the Stewart Society in 1901, [1] provided in greater detail at Space: Legendary Scottish Stewart Ancestry ties the many disparate threads of the Scottish Stewart legend together. In this account, Banquo, Thane of Lochaber, was the son of Ferquhard, Thane of Lochaber, who, again, was the son of Kenneth III, King of Scots. [1]

  • Banquo, a fictional person, was said to have flourished in the reign of King Duncan, and along with his sovereign was murdered by Macbeth in 1043, leaving an only son, Fleance, who also was a fictional person. [1]
  • Both Banquo and Fleance figure prominently in Shakespeare's play, MacBeth.
