OK, A couple of questions here for you experienced Skyrim/Hearthfire players. I am somewhat new to the game and the hearthfire DLC.

I have not decided which NPC to have my character marry yet, but was leaning toward Aela, however I use her as my follower most ofter because of her archery skills / stealth skills. She is an asset in bringing down dragons and does not give away my position when I'm sneaking around. I tend to take more of a thief/stealth approach to the game.

In the mean time I've built my manor at Lakeview and Aela asked about being the steward. I agreed so I don't have to go to Whiterun to get her all the time. I put on the Amulet of Mara after making her the steward and it still gives the option of asking her about marriage.

My question is if I decide to have my character marry her will she still also act as the steward of Lakeview or will that position become vacant allowing me to choose a new steward?

Also what are the pros and cons of either marrying or making a steward one of the followers you use the most.

Is there any way to change stewards on the 360 version?

Lastly are there any other archer NPCs in the game you can get as a follower who are as good as Aela with a bow?

Thanks to anyone who can answer some of all of these questions.

The only way to change steward is to kill the current one.
Steward basically means you talk to that person to get building supplies and improve the house and they also live with you too, so I don't see why she could not be your wife too.

There are many archer npcs, faendal in riverwood if you help him, jenassa in the drunken huntsman in whiterun if you hire her for 500 gold, anette crag jumper at darkwater crossing after you kill bandits for her, durak a male orc in the dawnguard expansion, darkeethus after you rescue him from darkwater pass, Lob and ogor orcs from largashbur. all specialise in archery.
