Saturday, Oct 18, 1924 The morning Chronicle, Halifax, N.S. ALBERT S. YUILL TRURO, Oct 17 - The death took place on Thursday evening the 16th at Old Barns, Colchester County, of Albert S. Yuill, aged 36 years. Mr. Yuill was a member of the Presbyterian Church and in politics a Liberal. In his immediate family, he leaves a son, Smith, and three daughters, Miss Christina, at home; Mrs. E. R. Stewart, Old Barns; and Mrs. Alfred Feast, Detroit. Two sisters also survive Mrs. R. P. Forbes and Mrs. Dunlap Johnson, both residing at Old Barns. - Old Barns, is located west of Truro, on Rte 236.

I answered one way and got a 45% dixie and then changed one answer (I think) and got a 60%. Never lived in the South. I'm a Chicago and Northeasterner. What gets me is that an answer that is appropriately Chicago is also appropriately Tennessee. > 67% (Dixie). > (I was born and raised in Texas) > > Dick Stewart > Colorado > >

Hi Teresa, Yup, I sent it as a .jpg on 18 Jan 2004. Cheers from 6600 ft, Dick Stewart ==================== Hi Dick, No, I don`t recall this letter at all. I doubt your Solomon was a Quaker though. I never thought of Charles and Hannah Kirk Stewart`s line as Quaker`s. Plus, you would have found them by now in Hinshaws books, they kept good records and I think your friend at the NC archives would have discovered that after all these years. This particular line was in Orange and Alamance CO NC, Orange Co was so huge at one time. The lady that wrote to you was correct, most were married by banns and they are not to be found. If not Quaker, and prior to the Rev War in NC and VA, all those married outside the Church of England were considered living in fornication. I don `t know how heavy the presence was in Cumberland/Wake of the Anglican Church though, they must have had a Vestry and Glebe. You might want to check with your friend on that, ask him if those counties as Vestries. I know Surry CO NC did. Teresa

Hi Vicki, Happy to iterate with you on the Moore / Harkins thing. ===============Vicki's Email================ What time frame are you looking at. John Harkins Moore was married to Esther Harkins. I don't know why John had Harkins for a middle name -- his son John H. Jr. also so it must have been an important name. John Harkins Moore the senior was born about 1770 in South Carolina. Esther Harkins born 1783 in South Carolina. John Harkins Moore Jr. born 1815 in Lincoln Co. TN. Vicki Moore McCarty =============End Extract of Vicki's Email================== Here's what I know based on my ancestor migration: 1) - migration(s) of sorts are traceable back to NC and beyond (i.e. VA, PA, etc.). 2) - migration(s) from NC to SC must have taken place 1795-1804 or so. This would appear to have included my Stewart, and allied family Harkins. Could have also included Clement, Moore, Hogan, Burford, and others (possibly Kennedy, Howell, Foster, Parker, Dodson, Mathis, White?, Lewis, Martin, etc.) 3) - migration(s) from SC to GA must have taken place 1804-1807 or 1809 These would have included the above, as some of them were competing in the 1805 and 1807 GA land lotteries. Others, such as probably the McConnells, Lewis, and Martins, etc., may have come from Davidson County / Nashville. 4) - As LCT opened up in 1809 and officially in Jan 1810, a host of families or family reps were 'in place' in LCT somehow (perhaps when still Bedford Co). My Stewart research shows it to be 'baby time' starting as early as 1807 or 1809. My Solomon's first three children were born in 1810, 1813, and 1815. Larkin Stewart, Reuben Stewart, and probably William, Benjamin, Charles, and Walter Harkins (married Johanna Stewart, sister to the brothers here) Your John Harkins Moore Jr. might have been the 3rd or 4th child in that family? John Harkins Moore Sr and Esther Harkins would have been about the same age as my Solomon (b. 1786), so they would have been part of the pioneering of LCT together, in their various career capacities (my Stewarts owned land in Flynt River areas. Walter Harkins lived on Stewart's Creek). Reuben Stewart married Elizabeth McConnell, probably in GA or SC. Larkin Stewart married Martha Parker probably in GA or SC. William Stewart married Mary Hogan Benjamin Stewart married Nancy (W.) Pullam/Pullum/Pulliam Charles Stewart married Sarah Mathis, I think. Charles Stewart the dad of all of these had married Elizabeth Clements/Clemons probably in NC. Solomon Stewart married Sarah C. Hogins/Hogan 5) - There is a lady on the LCT list who maintains that her two (male) Howels in LCT were married to Stewart ladies. There was one source on LCT list who said that an Elizabeth W. Stewart married a Moore either in LCT or prior to arriving in LCT. 6) - 'formal' migration(s) occured from LCT to Marion / Fayette Co., AL around 1819-1822. These included as a minimum the following families: Stewart, McConnell, Harkins, Moore (and possibly Foster, Dodson, Bobo, Hubbard, Kennedy, etc). (some of these - Stewart, Clement, and other - had already been in the gigantic Monroe Co, AL, by 1816) 7) - Your John Harkins Moore ,Senior, probably picked up the Harkins middle name after one of his uncles who would have been a Harkins, or possibly after his mother, who may have been a Harkins. 8) - My Solomon had three children (one female, two males) with middle initials of H. We don't know if it was Hogins / Hogan, Harkins, or something out of the blue. 9) - Walter Harkins bought land from a Kennedy, I believe. McConnell had land, but may not have lived there, nearby, and had possibly bought it from a Lewis and a Martin (I don't recall all of the land deed records exactly). My Solomon's land grant was as assignee of William T. Lewis. Lewis's daughter, Anne, married John P. McConnell back in VA prior to moving to NC. I believe William T. Lewis married a Martin back in VA, long prior to moving to NC. Both John McConnell and William T. Lewis had land on the Yadkin River back in Surry Co, NC, prior to moving up to the Nashville area / Davidson Co, TN. And so it goes, ..... Anyone have any more links in the chain? :-) Dick Stewart Colorado

However, I think that alot of that is going by the wayside now with all the national and international TV, and will continue to do so in the future. In the past we learned our speech patterns from our parents and extended family, but now with so much TV being watched by kids those patterns are being influenced by that and colloquialisms are being decimated left and right by the influence of TV.

Hi Teresa, I have a little on a Cane Creek line of Stuarts, not much. The Cane Creek line I have starts with Alexander Stuart, born Pennsylvania, died Cane Creek, NC, married Elizabeth Pike. Their daughter Abigail married Thomas Dixon, my GGGG Grandfather. Thomas Dixon was son of Simon Dixon, seems to have been the founder of the Cane Creek settlement. I know a lot more about the Dixon line than I do about the Stuarts, but that is what I subscribed to this list for. I would be glad to share anything I have on this, love to have more info.

HI Teresa, and all, You may recall I sent you a copy of the 1992 letter I received from NC after I had tried to find my Solomon STUART / STEWART (when I was living in Marlyland). Since the letter's got some educational info in it, I'm enclosing in in this email : (if anyone has any historices on Quaker migration / NC Quakers / STUART/STEWART / Cane Creek / the other [two?] NC Quaker settlements , now is a good time to chime in...): === = = = = = = = = = = = NORTH CAROLINA GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY Post Office Box 1492 RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27602 May 2, 1992 Dick Stewart Box 8721 Baltimore, MD 27602 Dear Mr. Stewart: Please forgive the delay, but I was trying to find something for you and having a notable lack of success. This is possibly where your aunt got stopped. We have no vital records in NC prior to 1913 which makes father son relationships most difficult to prove. Add to the fact the census does not name members of the household before 1850. We have to rely mostly on wills, estates and land records for this information. We are volunteers and do not do this deep a research leaving this to professionals. Nevertheless I do have a faint idea that your Stewart, the 16th most common name in the U.S. was a Quaker. You are correct that there is no marriage record for Solomon Stewart in NC. However the name Solomon is most unusual for the purely Scottish clansmen, I could find only three listed in any record available to me. Two are too far out of the area. Using the rule that naming pat­terns run in families I find the third listed as a Quaker in the Cane Creek Meeting, located then in Orange County which was fairly full of Stewart / Stuarts. It is possible this Solomon was an uncle or cousin to yours. The stewarts were dismissed from the meeting in 1797. A Solomon Stewart was still in NC in 1813 when he married a Rachel Underwood, however a Solomon Stewart was dismissed for marrying out of the church. Marriage records, incidentally are not complete. Marriage was by two methods, bann as in the Catholic Church - no bond or license, or by bond which cost 20 shillings and required bondsmen to agree to a 250 pound fine if there proved to be an impediment to the marriage. Most were by bann. I would suggest a professional researcher and am enclosing a list of same. You might also try The Quaker Collection, Guilford College Library, Greensboro, NC 27410. The quakers kept very good records, I had only abstracts to work with. Sincerely, Elizabeth Dees

Hi Tom, Yes, this is the line. I am trying to trace back Robert Stuart who married Martha Richardson in PA (Kennett Square, Chester CO). Robert was the son of Alexander Stuart and Mary Bailey. Alexander was probably born abt 1680 in Scotland and came as an indentured servant to PA. He was not a Quaker, but married the Quaker girl Mary Bailey, dau of Joel Bailey. After this marriage the Stuart`s became Quaker`s. Alexander died in PA ca 1713-1714. His wife remarried and moved with Robert Stuart to Orange CO NC. Some of this line also ended up in GA as well. Your Alexander was the son of Robert Stuart and Martha Richardson.

Ida -- I suspect that Evan went to MO around 1831; if I have the right Evan Stewart (and there are very very few Evan Stewarts), I believe he lived briefly in Monroe county, IN around 1830. Can you tell me the names of Evan's parents? Any and all information re Evan's immediate relatives would be quite helpful, including John Clark Stewart. Thanks.
