Families covered: Stevenson of Balladoole, Stevenson of Scarlet

                               
Because BLG1952 starts off with naming various successors to estates in the Isle of Man, only rarely identifying the relationship between the successors, we do not wish to presume too much about those relationships. However, we wish to record the data provided by BLG1952. Our solution is to show the early generations separately from the later ones where the relationship between the successive squires/lairds appears to have been confirmed. Accordingly, for the following (and elsewhere in the database), please remember that "succeeded by" is meant to imply uncertainty as to the exact familial relationship between the generations.

1. Thomas Stevenson of Balladoole & Scarlet (father of ...)
  A. William Stevenson of Balladoole, Scarlet & Calf succeeded by ...
  i. John Stevenson of Balladoole & Scarlet (d c1511)
  BLG1952 reports that, after John's death, "the estates passed to" the following Thomas. We interpret this as implying that Thomas was not John's son but, in the absence of any specific clue as to their relationship, show him as such.
  a. Thomas Stevenson of Balladoole & Scarlet (d 1528?) succeeded by ...
  (1) Thomas Stevenson of Balladoole & Scarlet
  Thomas is shown as succeeded by the undermentioned John. We presume that John was his grandson.
