Biography

Andrew Stewart is a member of Clan Stewart.

Andrew Stewart (2nd in Glenogle) was born about 1585 in Glenogle, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland. He was the son of Alexander Stewart. ^[1]

Andrew is mentioned in The Ardvorlich History as residing in Glenogle in 1618. He is recorded in the 1622 bond with his father Alexander. Then six months later Andrew "was ordered to appear before the Lords of the Privy Council on 11 Jun 1622, and is then styled as son of Alexander Stewart in Glenogle." (MacGregor). It is suggested that Andrew's troubles with the Privy Council may have ended in his inability to continue in Glenogle, whether through imprisonment, exile, or death, as there is no further record of Andrew in Glenogle and the next mention of anyone in Glenogle comes six years later when Duncan MacRobert Stewart is shown in possession of Glenogle -- whom we know as Andrew's uncle. Thus it is suggested that the original Glenogle line became extinct with Andrew and Glenogle passed semi-laterally to his paternal uncle, Duncan MacRobert Stewart.
