Research Notes:
it has been doubted that her marriage to Walter of Lennox took place canonically, but Janet ERSKINE appears to have been the mother of Walter STEWART of Morphie, and the ancestress of the Earls of Castle Stewart in Ireland [Ref: SP V p605]

the supplication for the marriage of Janet Erskine, daughter of Sir Robert, and Walter Stewart, son of Murdoch, Duke of Albany, dated 2 Apr 1421, proves that they were secon cousins ("related in the third and third degree of consanguinity"). This would be connect if Janet's maternal grandmother was Elizabeth Stewart, wife of Earl David (of Crawford) and daughter of Robert II King of Scots. [Ref: John Ravilious SGM 1/14/2010-131528]
