Ballantine--Stewart or Campbell

Have just come onto this thread so somewhat behind.

I am a Ballantyne and my known ancestors came from Lanarkshire until the 1891 census when they were in Renfrewshire

My father used to say that he was affiliated to the Stuarts of Bute and rhe Campbells of Argyll--he spelt Stuart as written and not as Stewart but I had no idea if any iof this was correct so interesting to read the posts.
The ones I have traced spelled their name as Ballantyne. However I have only been able to trace back as far as 1728 so there may have been different spellings before then
