Walter Stewart married Lady Marjory Bruce, daughter of Robert, the Bruce, King of Scotland and Lady Isabella Mar, before 25 April 1315 in Scotland. John Ravillious wrote: This relationship would have then been in the 3rd and 4th degrees of consanguinity, requiring a dispensation. I am not aware of any reference to such a dispensation, for what is one of the most noticed marriages in Scots history. Based on the foregoing, I have indicated in my notes that (A) the marriage of Neil of Carrick and NN le Stewart occurred, but (B) Marjory of Carrick was the daughter of another (likely second) wife of Neil of Carrick.
If anyone has reference to the account for Walter the Stewart in Scots Peerage (probably around I:14 or so), perhaps there's a detail there I'd missed. However, it seems otherwise unlikely that Margaret Stewart was great-grandmother of Marjory Bruce.

The situation, which is on the Clapham-road, is airy and pleasant, and allowed by the Faculty to be one of the most salubrious in the vicinity of London: and the distance, being only two miles from the Bridges, will render it convenient for parents to witness frequently the attention paid to their children. The domestic accommodations are peculiarly adapted to the purpose ; and Mr and Mrs Dempster indulge the hope that their united endeavour to promote the comfort and improvement of their pupils, will be found too merit general approbation and encouragement, The terms are moderate, and may be known by application as above ; or Mr D on being addressed by letter, will wait upon those parents and guardians who may be disposed to patronize the undertaking.
