Shad and first wife-Sarah H Shuffield had 6 children and I met a daughter of Lawrence S Stewart (Lawrence being a son of Everett Sturdivant Stewart-son of Shadrack and Sarah). Lawrence's daughter-whom I met and loved was Lois Antha Stewart Romack.

Two interesting things: Shad and Lucy's first son-Johnny was a traveling salesman.

His mother Lucy advirtised in the Dallas paper about his disappearance . Well, in the new DeKalb cem therre is a grave: John E Stewart l866-l900 and I often wonder if this could be Shad and Lucy's son. Also on the l900 census for Coryell co tx: J.A Stewart born l872, Mary born l875, and on the l900 bowie census, John R Stewart l87l, Callie Belle l875 plus children (one girl named Cordely L-- and Johnny had a half sister named Cordelia who may have died during a measles outbreak in l864 and I think her mother may have died at the same time because neither appeared on the l870 census Another interesting thing: Willy-born l874 (2nd son of Shad and Lucy) was stabbed to death when he walked in a saloon and accidently got in the way of a fight. He lived 3 days but was buried before he mother Lucy and daughter -Mary Inez- returned from a traintrip--probably to Mo. Hope this helps. Lajuan

Hi! I would love info on this Stewart/Shuffield line. I have it as Sheffield but Sarah's little brother Everett is kinda my line...Well his first 2 children are suppposed to be. I live in Dekalb and would love to know about church/cemetery connections here... What part of central Texas did your line move to? Everett (E. R.) was in Leon County in 1880 but I have no data on them after that...we have found where his son Elijah is buried though....Love to hear from you....Jerri in DeKalb Previous Message HI Joni, my name is Lajuan Pruett Boyle and I live in Wake Village. My great grandparents lived in DeKalb but left there in l892. They must have lived not too far from the old cem. Shadrack Franklin Stewart was a founding member of the Meth Church.and started paying taxes in l848. Several members of his family and of his first wife's family must be buried in the old cem. I have no proof, just an educated guess. He either owned a hotel or ran a hotel before he left for central Tex. HEre are the ones I think could possibly be buried in the old cem: Sarah H Shuffield Stewart (died ca l864 I think from Measles (first wife of Shadrack F Stewart) Below are some of his ch: Cordelia Stewart (l858-and prob died in l864 ) Almeda Stewart (l864 and not on the l880 census and I've never located her--of course she could have married but my grandmother never mentioned her so perhaps she died early Willy Stewart l874-l892 stabbed to death when he came upon a fight and got in the way A. (female listed as age 2 on the l880 census and never memtioned by my grandmother Newel Stewart l887-l890 All the above are children of Shad Stewart l826-l897 Does anyone have a list of schools and school children in DeKalb about l890?? MY grandmother (next to the last child of Shadrack and Lucy Ann ) was born in l884 and would have attended school for awhile before leaving for central Tx in l892. I would enjoy hearing from you and your thoughts on the above people possibly being buried in the old cem. Sincerely, Lajuan
