==Biography==
Andrew's father, Andrew Stewart, 2nd Lord Avondale, exchanged his lands and title to became Lord Ochiltree. When resistance to the Catholic religion and the rule of Dowager Queen Mary of Guise began to grow, Andrew was one of the first of the Lords of the Congregation who marched towards Perth in June 1559, and joined up with the rest at Edinburgh by 1 July. Ochiltree was a signatory to the Congregation's letters to Elizabeth I of England and William Cecil on 19 July 1559. John Knox wrote the letters, which state their whole intent was to remove superstition and "maintain the liberty this our country from the tyranny and thraldom of strangers." Cecil replied mentioning the example of the polity of Denmark, and wondering what place the Hamiltons, the former Duke of Châtelherault, the Earl of Arran and Lord David Hamilton might have in their scheme.〔Bain, Joseph, ed., ''Calendar of State Papers Scotland'', vol. 1 (1898), pp.218, 220, 227-8, 234-5.〕
On 27 April 1560, Ochiltree was a signature to the "Band of the Scottish Nobility", which pledged to expel the Queen Dowager's French forces and take plain part with the Queen of England's army, which had entered Scotland under the terms of the Congregation's Treaty of Berwick.〔Bain, Joseph, ed., ''Calendar of State Papers Scotland'', vol. 1 (1898), 383〕 John Knox wrote in his ''History of the Reformation in Scotland'' that Ochiltree was a man more likely to look for peace than fight in the causeway.
