He was encouraged to pursue the Stirling claims re Canada by Duke3 Argyll and earl3 Bute. His claim was based on the word of two old men who spoke of his descent from John Alexander an uncle of the Earl2 Stirling. He also claimed that his own father James the Earl7 Stirling was son2 of David Alexander of Godgar the earl6, who was son2 of Alexander Alexander, son of John of Gogar son2 of Andrew Alexander of Menstrie, alleged to be the father of Alexander Alexander the father of Earl1 Stirling. All up, a Scots jury of 17559 decided William was heir-male of Henry the Earl5 Stirling. So he assumed the title, only to be contradicted by a 1762 Lords Committee on Priveliges not to do so, which he ignored.
