BIOGRAPHY: John J. Stewart is listed on the 1764-1765 lax lists of Rowa n County, North Carolina and the 1771 tax list of Mecklenburg County, Nor th Carolina. On 26 October 1765, he sold his land in Rowan County, Nort h Carolina and moved to Macklenburg County, North Carolina, which land h e sold in 1775 prior to moving to the North Fork of the Holston River o n the Tennessee/Virginia border.

BIRTH: The 1759, 1761, and 1768 tax lists of Rowan Co., North Carolina a re use to determine the birth order of the children. The 1759 tax list r ecords Samuel with his two adult sons, David and John Stewart. The 176 1 tax list records Samuel with his sons; David, John, Samuel, Joseph an d Isaiah. The 1768 tax list records Samuel with David, John, Joseph, Isa iah and Benjamin, the baby in the family. Researcher: Joyce Lindstrom.

John sold the land he inherited from his father 26 Oct. 1765 in Rowan Co. , N.C. prior to moving to Mecklenburg Co., N.C. This land he sold in 177 5. William served in the Revolutionary War and he states in his pensio n application that he was living in Scott Co., Va. at that time.
