I have two lines, Stewart on the maternal side and Stuart on the paternal side. The maternal line goes back to "Bald Jimmy" Stewart, born 1718 (Ireland?) and died 1783 in Caswell North Carolina. The paternal side goes back at least to John Stuart/Stewart (both spellings can be found in the records), born 18 Jan 1757 in Amelia Co Virginia and died about 1840 in Davidson North Carolina. -- Ron Barnett Life is about art.
