I'm all twisted here and cannot make the connection using the sources from this and other pages to show that Agnes was a daughter of Margaret- this is the exact link given for the Wikipedia page: (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Stewart,_Mistress_of_Ochiltree) and if someone can fix the WikiData page it has been completely torn apart- (https://m.wikidata.org/wiki/Q73507468) e.g. her fatther is listed as Henry I and Henry II, she has 2 different mother's, 10 kids, most doubles and unknowns...I'm not writing to point but to ask for clarification because I'm sure others will follow this line since the Sutherland / Southerland link is this week's challenge. Cheers! (And thanks for helping me see it correctly if I'm missing something obvious)

Stewart-24778 and Stewart-3520 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicates - kindly merge
Stewart-10134 and Stewart-3520 appear to represent the same person because: Clearly the same person; see Burke's Peerage, says "Henry Stewart, Lord Methven...had by his second wife Janet daughter of John 2nd Earl of Atholl...had issue...Margaret, m1 Andrew master of Ochiltree and m2 to Uchtred MacDowall of Garthland": https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=0alfAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA789&dq=uchtred+macdowall+margaret+stewart&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjhxKDkgYvmAhWBqHEKHVinAFAQ6AEIKjAA#v=onepage&q=uchtred%20macdowall%20margaret%20stewart&f=false

I've marked this as a merge with Stewart-10134 as Wikipedia:Henry_Stewart,_1st_Lord_Methven lists Margaret's two marriages as (1) Andrew Stuart and (2) Uchtred Macdowall.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Stewart,_1st_Lord_Methven might hold some helpful information and sources for more research
