Hello Bob, Are you new to our list, I have never seen you post before? I think there are many Stewart/Stuart families that have this tradition or family lore, about 3 to 4 brothers comming over. Usually , one stayed in say PA, another in VA and other in NC etc. I`d like to hear more on your James and Janet if you do not mind. There were a lot of Stewart`s that lived in what was Orange CO NC. It was a huge county and sometimes you will even find their records in old Rowan CO NC. There was also another James that had a Lord Granville Grant in Orange CO NC, Hyco River area. He lived in what became Caswell CO NC. All the land in that area was owned by Lord Granville until he died and the land office was opened. So, if they came early they either got a grant from Lord Granville or bought from another person. Did your Stewart`s settle in GA?
