She is not the Mary T Stewart from Barbour county AL. My Mary Stewart was on the 1850 Walton county FL federal census married to Joseph Steele and noted in the Ebenezer Baptist Church records for the remainder of her life. Mary's oldest daughter was named Elizabeth and son was named William. Joseph died about 1896 and Mary lived with her oldest son and daughter, in this same area which became a part of the new Okaloosa county about the time of her death in the 1910's. There was a William and Elizabeth Stewart showing three sons, James (21) ,Daniel (17), Norman (13), still at home only fifteen households away from Joseph and Mary on the 1850 federal census, and the only other Stewarts in Northwest Walton county. The older William and Elizabeth show up on the 1860 federal census a few miles to the North in Covington county AL next door to Daniel Stewart, but after that disappear. I am looking for any evidence that William and Elizabeth are in ! fact Mary's parents, also any of their other descendants. I have found other Stewarts in Santa Rosa county to the West, but can't tie them to Mary or William and Elizabeth. I am suspecting at least three different Stewart lines represented in Southeast AL and West FL between 1830-1910, and that's not counting the Stewarts in the Rose Hill area in North Covington county or in the Eucheanna area of Walton county. Joseph and Mary and their children Elizabeth and William are buried at the Ebenezer Cemetery in North Okaloosa county.
