LifeSketch | Stewart Family The clan Stewart can be traced back to Walter Fitz Alan, whose family moved to Scotland when David I was crowned the King of Scotland. The family name, Stewart, is said to have been taken from Walter’s title as High Steward of Scotland and the title, along with extensive lands, became hereditary in the family. The Royal House of Stewart came about through marriage to Robert the Bruce’s daughter. As a family, the Stewarts continuously held the Scottish throne, and then the English throne, until Queen Anne’s death in 1714. It has been claimed that the current royal family have some Stewart blood, solidifying this clan’s \"royal\" status. The Stewart clan motto is \"Virescit vulnere virtus\" (Courage grows strong at a wound) and the clan crest is a pelican in a nest feeding her young. [https://clan.com/families?search=Stewart] [1] | |
