Excerpt from The Stewarts of Appin HE origin and early genealogy of the House of Stewart have en gaged the attention and labours of numerous archaeologists. The position occupied by the family in Scotland, and their relations with the throne, have connected them closely with the recorded history, as well as with the traditions of the country. The genealogists of the last century had no difficulty in tracing with accuracy, and with the support of deeds and charters of the kings of Scotland, their descent from Alan, father of Walter the first High Steward of Scotland under King David I., who reigned 1 124 to I I 5 3. But the researches of later antiquaries have not only brought to light proofs of their having been seated m Norfolk in I 100, and in Shropshire a few years later, but have also demonstrated the probability of the correctness of the traditional and generally received accounts of their Celtic descent.
