5. | Marjory Cameron (daughter of Stewart); and died. Notes:
From Margaret Cameron, Box 621, Long Sault, Ontario KOC 1PO
"my gtgt grandmother's (Nancy(Ann b c 1779) mother's name was MarjoryCameron(b. c 1747)(the wife of John Cameron of inveruiskavouline,Glenloy), and her mother (so I was told) was a Stewart. There is a legendin the family---and my one cousin is very adamant about thislegend---that we descend from the bonnie Prince, but I think it is mostlikely that Marjory's grandfather might have been 'a Charles Stewart. Idon't know. There seems to be a bit of a mystery about her. Although aEwen Cameron of Fassifern sent a letter to John Cameron (Glenloy, mygtgtgt) stating something to the effect that 'his mother in law was doingbetter than in thirty years and, evidently, this Ewen Cameron was lookingafter her. I don't know if she was related to him or not. "
