child:
Janet STEWART (#151734) [Ref: SP VIII p7]
William STEWART (#180895) [Ref: Burke Peerage p806, SP IV p145, SP V p345]
Research Notes:
heiress of Dalserf and Galston [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v12-83]

ancestor by her first husband of the hamiltons of Cadzor (who got Dalserf) [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v12-83]

abt 1383: settled Galston on her second husband and their heirs [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v12-83]

11 Dec 1406: a charter of hers as "Domina de Gallyston" in favor of her son Andrew Hamilton was witnessed by Sir William Hamilton and John Stewart of Cruickistoun (i.e. Darnley), each styled her son [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v12-83]

25 Feb 1421/2: referred to as "his mother" by John Stewart of Darnley, Constable of the Scots, in a petition granted at Rome [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v12-83]

Andrew Stuart, Genealogical History of the Stewarts, and SP v6 p29 incorrectly show Janet Keith, living 1421, as daughter of the noted Sir William Keith of Galston. As she was born no earlier than about 1350, her father could not be that Sir William (who was actually her grandfather) as he was slain in 1336 [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v23-74(10)]

Sir Lewis Stewart, in his manuscript collections, wrote that the mother of Janet Keith was a Galbraith heiress (as cited by Stuart, Genealogical History of the Stewarts, p86), but in fact this was her paternal great-grandmother, the wife of Sir Bernard de Keth [Ref: Thompson CharlesII v23-74(11)]
