Do you have any info on the grandchildren of your Daniel Stewart? My Stewart brick wall is Joseph Stewart, born about 1818 in PA. He married Margaret Jane Nelson on 15 Nov 1842 in Perry County, PA. The marriage record lists him as 'Mr Steward of Juniata'. She was the daughter of James Nelson and Martha McGowan. I have additional info on their descendants.
