The pedigree listed below that is: James Stewart(1810-1880) married Katherine Boston(1825-1905) their son is Alfred Stewart(1850-1921) married Nancy Thompson(1852-1903) their son is William C. Stewart(1869-1965) married Josephine Wilson(1871-1937) their son is Edward Jay Stewart(1905-1969) married Anne Gilmore(1910-) Anne Gilmore is the person that typed the note I found and she passed away in 1996. I have nothing other than that to go on and have hit a dead end when trying to prove any of it past Edward Jay Stewart. Anyone know of the eight brothers or the Stewarts I mentioned?

Kitty -- It seems you meant the 8 brothers emigrated to PA early 19th century, or is it just that no information on the brothers or descendants is earlier than the early 1800s? I know of a pair of brothers who emigrated from N. Ireland and settled in Lancaster County in the early 1700s.
