Memorable info[]
The Stewart family can be traced back several generations to the Scottish "immigrant" Angus Stewart who first stepped on Australian soil in May 1852. The ship he sailed on was was full of immigrants instead of convicts. Summer Bay residents seem to be mainly of Scottish or English ancestry as a result. The Summer Bay's version of the Mayflower. Angus was around 20-25 years old and his origins disappear in the midsts of Scotland.
Alf Stewart, the now 75 year old patriarch of Summer Bay is the great grandson of Angus.
Flamin' Alf has always spoke of his Scottish roots and has spoken of this a lot. In 2010 he planned a trip to Scotland to study the clan Stewart. In 1994, he and Ailsa learned Scottish dancing.
Lovers Bobby and Alan never knew they were half siblings, and first cousins until after Alan died due to his brain aneurysm
Alan and Bobby are the half cousins of Lance Smart, they share 1 grandparent.
Some sources say Angus Stewart was a cabin boy rather than the captain, nevertheless he founded Summer Bay.
