In a report from a Genealogist from Scotland (commissioned by a member of my family), it states Euphemia MacKenzie " in addition to her four daughters, Mary, Jane, Euphemia and Catherine she also made bequests to her "niece Mrs B (H) arrington" and "Miss Anne Brown" . I haven't seen the original will, however I hope to obtain a copy Please note. I have been collecting some of this information for the last sixteen years, and have over 14 folders with various print offs and hand written notes in them.
Hopefully one day I will have time to go through them all and correlate them.
I also have family information on some things: eg The Dairy of a Girl in France 1821, written by Mary Browne granddaughter of Euphemia. Information written by John Shore, 2nd Lord Teignmouth, who Caroline Browne, Euphemia's granddaughter married.
Unfortuneately information on the Net disappears and isn't always correct.
My main reference is Stirnet.com, a Genealogy site, which I have printed information off. The Scots Peerage.
I do have other sources.
Any help in adding with adding the above information I have listed would be gratefully appreciated. As I haven't been able to add the other children to Lady Mary Stewart and Kenneth MacKenzie, Lord Fortroe, as their profile is protected.
I also have other information about the Stewarts of Castle Stewart, Penninghame pre 1700, which I have been unable to add. any help with adding this would also be grately appreciated.
