Date of birth for Christian Stewart has recently been changed from 1565 to 1580. This can not be right. Her son Francis Moodie was born about 1585 and Robert Moodie about 1590.

Christian Stewart married Johne Mowat before 21 November 1597 (Shetland Documents 1580 – 1611, 264). According to sources, Christian Stewart still was married to Adam Moodie 28 feb1598 (NRS NP1/36, ff. 63r-64v). The conclusion that can be drawn from these documents is that there were two Christian Stewarts.

There has been a bad merge. The other Person is

Christian Stewart

who is NOT the daughter of Robert Stewart, 1st Earl of Orkney.

The bad merge much be und one, the birth date corrected.
And mother, father, husband locked.

Well, who is responsible for correcting the bad merge?

Can it be proven Christian Mowat (Stewart) is NOT the daughter of Robert Stewart, 1st Earl of Orkney? Many documents show the opposite.

I can undo this merge, if that's the one you guys think is the cause:

"Moodie was merged into Christian Stewart by Ingegerd Holand.
8 Mar at 12:41 PM "

But, I don't have the time to check the ramifications - So if someone wants to do that and prompt me when you need a Curator tool to help - I'm happy to unmerge.
But unless you guys have the time to untangle the bird nest, then it is better to wait for a Curator with a free couple of hours to follow the whole thing through.

It seems like Leitch also have done some change 21 jun.

Hello,

Here is the information I have about Christians birth-date:

I suggest it is changed to 1565 if everyone agrees.

"Christian Stewart was born in 1565, at birth place, to Robert Stewart 1st Earl of Orkney and Jean (Lady Janet) Kennedy."

Thankyou Håkon for correcting the bad merge. I think there must be done some correcting at this profile too:

John Anderson Mowat of Hugoland

The info about John Mowat telles he was married with the daughter of Robert Stewart, 1st Earl of Orkney.

John Mowat was married to another Christian Stewart, daughter of Sir Robert Stewart of Tranquair. Alltogether I found 143 Christian Stewart on geni.com ..

As a little boy my brother used to ask our mother in the bus about the houses passing by "who live there ?" until she started answering "Olsen".
He already at this age recognized that this could not always be correct.
Ole and his son Olsen are very common Norse names. In analogon to this Christian, Robert, Stewart and Sinclair were very frequently used names in Orkney and Scotland, even today. So merging all is not a good idea.

let me know if you need curator tools to help you here.

Thanks for the offer, Sharon.
But Christian Stewart's profile was MP'd quite some time ago by Richard at my request. Surely Ingegerd Holand shouldn't have been able to make any changes if he/she isn't a manager?

Brendan, I think that's no longer true. Private User or Mike Stangel are better to explain how/why to you, though.

Ok, thanks Sharon.
