Notes

SOURCE: Research conducted by Dr. John Valentine. See letter of Stewar t famil written by Gilbert Stewart .

BIOGRAPHY: On the 9th of May 1757, Samuel purchased 508 acres of land o n the East side of the Yadkin River in Rowan County, North Carolina. O n August 10, 1762, he purchased another 332 acres of land also located ne xt to the Yadkin river. He's listed in the 1759, 1761, and 1768 tax list s of Rowan County. On August 11, 1766 Samuel sold his land of 153 acre s located in Augusta County, Virginia, to a Jacob Caplin for thirty pound s. This land was located on the South Fork of Linville's Creek, which wa s patented to Samuel on September 5, 1749. According to that deed, at th at time Samuel was living in North Carolina
Research by Joyce Lindstrom.

WILL: In 1768 Samuel made a will (that was probated in 1770) which is a s follows: In the name of God, Amen, I Samuel Stewart, being weak in bod y but in perfect mind and memory, thanks be to God for it and knowing i t is appointed fo all men once to die, do make and appoint this my Last W ill and Testament. First, I commit my soul to almight God that gave it a nd my body to the earth to be buried in a decent Christian manner at th e descretion of my Exectors. Item 1: I give and bequest all my movable e state to my well beloved wife LIDDY STEWART, to use and dispose of at he r own descretation.
Item 2: I give and bequest the tenement or tract of land I now live on t o my so JOSEPH STEWART and to my son BENJAMIN STEWART, to be equally divi ded in quanity and quality and I do constitute and appoint my son DAVID S TEWART and my son SAMUEL STEWART, my Executors in witness whereof I hav e hereunto set my hand thi 20th day of Aug 1768
In the same year that Samuel made the will, he passed away. On 11 Januar y 1771, just three years later, Lydia made a will and as the records show , she undoubtedly died almost immediately after making the will, becaus e the death date and will date are shown on the record as the same day. T his probably isn't the case, but certainly she didn't live long after sh e made the will. Samuel ha willed the specific property to his four olde r sons and so in Lydia's will she willed specifically to the other childr en, however, she did mention all the different ones in the will.


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 tow 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 lis records Samuel with David, Joh, Joseph, Isaia h and Benjamin, the baby in the family. Researcher: Joyce Lindstrom.
