  • Notes 
    • Early Life
      Online pedigrees have her birth in 1643 and her death in 1707/08, but I've not found any primary sources for these dates. Her birth was thus likely to have been between 1643 (when her husband was born) and 1648 (to ensure she was at least 21 when married).

      Anna's brother John became the first Baronet of Fordell.

      Family Life
      The Baronage of Scotland1 doesn't even have her name, and has her marry Robert [sic] Stewart of Dunearn, rather than Archibald.
