I've looked at the National Archives and also the stewart society as well. Which lists he died without issue but no mention of out of wedlock children. |

But have you looked in the local and National archives? Have you been in touch with the Stewart Society? |

The algeo line has been well researched and documented. Its such an usual name and evidence on line to back it up. The name changes to Algie over time but Margaret is a mystery as to how the connection has been made with the earl. |

I've looked at so many sights I've lost count. I've read a lot about him but not found any reference to illegitimate children. |

That is a VERY long way back. If you haven’t done so you need to search the various archives to see if there are any papers referring to Margaret. |

Yes they are and I do. Not everyone does the research to back up the statements they make which is frustrating. |

Where are the 'trees' to which you refer? |
