Stewart wrote

the absence of positive proof does not discount the theory but merely places a question mark over it

There are two Clans of the name associated with districts as far apart as Dumbarton and Lewis and they have no family connection with each other

STEWART OF APPIN HUNTING (MODERN) - Tartans beginning with 'J' Stewart wroteScottish Tartan Society notes: The Stewarts of Appin feuded relentlessly with the Campbells, and they were supported in these pursuits and other military activities by some of the Clan MacColl, whose tartan is very similar. The Stewarts of Ardshiel, a branch of the Appin Clan, have a certified tartan of their own dating back to the 1820's, which has elements of the Appin design. Stewarts of Appin are descended from Dugald, the son of Sir John Stewart
