    1. [Phly-Rts] DePUY and STEWART Early 1800's

    3. I wrote this email to my distant cousin, Dave Ward. What do you folks think of it? - Vince Summers. "I think it quite likely, that John Stewart DePUY, who married Lucy JOHNSON, was the son of John and Elizabeth Vanhorn DePUY. I thought I would check to see what you think of my argument why... 2nd Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, PA: 1806, Nov. 17, Depuy, John, and Elizabeth Vanhorn. 1806, Nov. 17, Depuy, Mary, and John Stewart. Now the dates are identical, and I think represent a brother and sister marrying on the same day. Note that one couple would become STEWART, and the other DePUY. Now John DePUY and Elizabeth Vanhorn would qualify as parents for John Stewart DePUY who was born circa 1807. And who to name it after in view of a brother and sister being so close they wed on the same day? After the sister's husband, John STEWART. Does that ring true or likely to you? If so, can we verify it?"
