    1. [AYR] MARJORIE STEWART-14TH CENTURY
    2. Peter STRAUSS via
    3. I am looking for the origins of Marjorie Stewart, apparently a cousin of Robert II and wife of Sir Adam de Fowlertoun [Fullarton] of that ilk. Marjorie was addressed by Robert II as "dilectæ consanguinæ nostræ” [our dearly beloved cousin] a phrase which George Robertson states in his book on Ayrshire was “in those times applied only in the plain sense of the words, denoting real consanguinity”. Marjorie and Adam’s names appear as witnesses on a number of charters during the 14th century. Marjorie is referred to in histories written by George Robertson, Walter Macfarlane and James Paterson amongst others in each case described generally as above. Could any lister indicate how I should pursue my search please? Peter Melbourne Australia --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com
