Biography
Natural daughter of Alexander Stewart of Pitcairn, Bishop of Moray and Margaret Stewart illegitimate daughter of King James IV by Margaret Drummond.
She was born about 1518 -19 at the time when her mother was Lady Gordon, widow of John, Lord Gordon (d.Dec.1517)
She was brought up in the household of John Drummond of Innerpefferay who married her mother, Lady Gordon. He was tutor to young David Lord Drummond and probably influenced the marriage of David and Margaret which, with the King's approval, took place in 1536. [1]
David Drummond married Margaret Stewart after 5 Jan 1535/36 and before 5 March 1535/36.[2]
By a Precept of Sasine under the Quarter seal dated 5 Mar 1535/36 David Drummond was granted the Barony of Cargill identifying a long list of properties. He took sasine on 23 Mar 1535/1536 [3] Another writ dated June 6, 1538 shows joint ownership of the barony of Cargill by David Lord Drummond and Margaret Stewart. [4]
She had only one child
- Sibilla who married Sir Gilbert Ogilvy [5]
Margaret died about 1541.
