    1. [MOSTODDA-L] Correction on William Stewart info
    2. Brenda Boyt
    3. Recently I joined the list and made a query about anyone knowing anything about my great great grandfather William Stewart and his wife. I was made aware by a list member that was able to provide me with their marriage date that I had made an error in mentioning his wife's name. Her name was Avyrilla Tennessee Glover who went by Tennie. Her maiden name was Glover but she was married previously to a William "Bud" Killion in TN, had four children with him, they divorced and she then married William Stewart. I forgot that she would be going by her married name of KILLON, not Glover, so I will put my info out again. I'm trying to find any information on William Stewart I don't know anything about him, no dates of any kind except that he probably died in 1893 or 1894, but the little info I do have suggests he was from Stoddard County, possibly Puxico. He married Tennie Glover KIllion (born July 6, 1861) on Sept. 14, 1890, which was recorded in the Marriage Book of Stoddard County (by Thorn &Thorn). William and Tennie Stewart had one daughter, Sally Belle born Dec. 11, 1891 in Puxico. Sally Belle was orphaned around 1893 or 1894 when both parents died within 6 months of each other as the family story goes. She went to live with her mother's brother, Bolin Green Glover, in TN. Tennie, who's family was from Obion Co., TN, had a brother Charles Glover, living in Stoddard County at the time, and he was a charter member of the First Baptist Church in Puxico. I mention all this on the chance that Tennie and William Stewart met through her brother, or possibly the church, and if anyone knows of any Stewarts attending the First Baptist Church of Puxico? I don't want to leave any stone unturned in my quest to find my ancestor! If anyone can help me out I'll be eternally grateful! Brenda Boyt [email protected]
