Scots Peerage refers to the surname as /STEWART/ not /STUART/. Mary, Queen of Scots was born /STEWART/ but adopted the French spelling /STUART/ and that is the LNAB for her son James but this was long before that period. It can also be noted that the LNAB for his father is /STEWART/ and the only evidence of the French spelling is in the referenced Medieval Lands FWIW. Perhaps the LNAB should be changed to match his father's LNAB and that used in SP.

"Sieur de Aubigny, marshal of France, one of the most experienced commanders in the service of Charles VIII. and Louis XII., as a relative of James IV., bore the red lion of Scotland on a field argent, which he caused to be ' semee of buckles/ signifying that he was the means of holding united the kings of Scotland and France against England, with the motto, " Distantia jungit" — "It unites the distant."

From "History of the Flag of the United States of America.." by R. Adm. George Ereble

The arms and the buckles have a connection to the Bonkyl/Stewart union and the same with the same motto are ascribed to Thomas Case, c. 1550, Arms confirmed and crest granted 21 Dec 1599 (41 Elizabeth) by William Seger, Norroy King of Arms, *Burke’s Landed Gentry; Case of Redhazels, p.311
