Is there anyone out there that can do a lookup for a William and Elizabeth (nee Pickett) Stewart. They were from the Wood Station, Fosterburg area, they had 10 children. My great grandfather was their son Archie Stewart (1895-1931); he was born in Madison County, died in Omaha NE, but buried in Madison County. Here is his obituary to provide further information. Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thank you Archie Stewart Dies -- 1931 Archie Stewart, 36 years old, a son of William Stewart, a resident of Wood river, died Omaha, Neb., last Wednesday and the body has been brought here for burial.
