Arms of the Stuarts of Ochiltree

Lord Ochiltree (or Ochiltrie) of Lord Stuart of Ochiltree was a title in the

Baron Castle Stewart; see the Earl Castle Stewart
for further history of this branch of the family.

James Stewart now became the first or fourth Lord Ochiltrie (or Lord Stewart of Ochiltrie). He was succeeded by his son William, the second or sixth[fifth?] Lord. On his early death in 1675 the lordship became either dormant or extinct.

In 1774 Andrew Thomas Stewart successfully claimed the barony of Castle Stewart in the peerage of Ireland as heir male under the creation of 1619; but although he was permitted in 1790 to vote as Lord Ochiltree in an election of Scottish representative peers, his claim to this barony as collateral heir of the grantee of 1615 was disallowed by the House of Lords in 1793.[2]

A branch of the Ochiltree family is introduced at the

James VI of Scotland in 1585.[3]
