CLAN STEWART
NAME ON MAP: STEWARD (in the old county of) Lanark
MEANING: 'steward, keeper of the household'.
In the early 12th century Alan Fitz Flaad came to England from Brittany. He settled in Shropshire. His elder son, William FitzAlan was ancestor to the present Duke of Norfolk; his younger son, Walter went to Scotland where he was appointed High Steward of Scotland by King David I (1124-53). The office was later made hereditary. In 1315 Walter, the 6th Steward, who had commanded a wing of Bruce's army at Bannockburn, married Marjorie, daughter of King Robert the Bruce; their eldest son, Robert II , succeeded his uncle and became the first of the Stewart Kings. Robert II is known to have fathered over twenty children including John 'the Black Stewart' whom he created Sheriff of Bute and Arran circa 1385 (the spelling "Stuart" was adopted later).
