1st Lord Avondale (Stewart of Avondale), of Barony cr 1456 [Ref: CP XII/1 p271]

Lord Avondale [Ref: CP I p80(a), SP I p150]

Chancellor of Scotland [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v1p623]

1424/4: taken when young from Scotland during the harassment of his family by King James I [Ref: John Ravilious SGM 10/1/2005-203930]

educated in England; returned to Scotland and knighted [Ref: John Ravilious SGM 10/1/2005-203930]

Apr 17 1479: legitimated [Ref: CP I p80(a), SP I p150]

most secondary sources follow the account in Scots Peerage that Andrew died without issue. Andrew MacEwen has put forward a well reasoned argument that he died with female issue, but had resigned the lands and barony of Avandale on 4 Jan 1485/6 in order to preserve his Stewart heritage for his nephew Alexander Stewart. There was most likely a daughter of Andrew Stewart, 1st Lord Avondale. [Ref: John Ravilious SGM 9/7/2008-231636]
