I continue to search for Jane Leach Stewart b. 1799 in TN or IL. She is the daughter of William Leach and the wife of John Stewart, son of James Potts Stewart and Margaret Witherspoon Stewart of Lawrence County, IL. She married John in Edwards County, IL, now Lawrence County. Jane was living in Carroll County, TN, in 1850, her husband having died about 1849. By 1860, she is living in Craighead County, AR, with all of her children except Martha. Two married sons, Abner Potts Stewart and Jackson M. Stewart, are living in the area with their wives. Rachel Jane Stewart and her cousin Francs L. Stewart as well as two brothers, Adley Guinn Stewart and John L. Stewart, are living with their mother and aunt Jane Leach Stewart. Another daughter, Margaret Elizabeth Stewart Barker is also living in the area with her husband John Wesley Barker. By 1870, the Barkers are in Newton County, AR, without other relatives. Adley Guinn, Jackson M., and John L. Stewart have been killed in the Civil War. Abner Potts Stewart survived the war but spent most of it imprisoned in Camp Douglas in Chicago after being captured at the Battle of Helena. He is living with his wife and child in Kelso, Missouri. His mother, Jane, his sister, Rachel Jane, and his cousin, Francis L. Stewart, disappeared off the face of the earth as far as I can tell. Does anyone know what happened to these three women? I would be eternally, and I mean Eternally, grateful for any information about them. I have been to Craighead County, AR, but all records before about 1880 were destroyed by fire. Linda Wilson
