WIFE: Elizabeth VanHooser, could have been born abt 1772 in Overton Co. Tenn.
BIOGRAPHY: Stewart Clan Magazine, June 1947, Vol XXIV: No12 : William Stewart born in Stokes (or Forsyth) County, N.C. about 1780, went with his parents to Overton (then Davidson or Sumner)County, Tennessee when rather young. There he married Elizabeth Van Hooser (or Van Hoosen), daughter of Abraham and Mary (Wilhelms) Van Hooser. They moved about 1811 to Madison Co., Ill., to which locality other members of the Stewart family also removed. However, they returned to Overton County during the War of 1812 and remained a few years before going again to Illinois. William went off and left his family, it is said and subsequently married Rebecca Llewellyn. He moved to Iowa with Rebecca and is believed to have raised several children by her. Elizabeth and her children lived for many years in Madison County, Ill, where she became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints about 1836. She died in Nauvoo, Ill, in 1842. Children of William and Elizabeth, all born in Overton Co, except Levi, who was born in Madison Co., Ill.
!MARRIAGE: 1) Elizabeth VanHooser (div); 2) Rebecca Lewellyn. SOURCE: Family record of William's son, Urban Van Stewart of Beaver, Utah.
!DIVORCE: In the Tennessee Archives can be found one of the older documents concerning the Stewarts in Overton Co., TN. This is a divorce petition for Wm. & Elizabeth. This was submitted to the General Assembly of the State of TN in the fall of 1824. Fifty-two men signed the petition. Wm. then married Rebecca Lewellyn. There were children by both marriages.
Elizabeth Van Hooser moved to Nauvoo, IL where she had relatives and was an early convert to the Mormon religion, along with her sons Riley, Levi, William Jackson and Urban Van. Elizabeth Stewart died on 28 Aug 1843 at the age of 54 in Nauvoo, Ill and is buried in the Old Nauvoo Burial Ground. William & Elizabeth's sons were with the early Mormons who ended up in Utah. There are many descendants; however, not much seems recorded about the second family. Lev & Urban both practiced pologamy & each had several wives with Levi being the father of 28 children & Urvan Van the father of 32 children.

SOURCE: 1840 Census, book 977.7 X22j1840. I again verified this in SLC as Joyce Lindstrom claims one other girl age 15-20. I did not find this female in the 1840 census records that I checked. There was one other female in the 1830 census under the age of 5, which would have put her in the 15-20 age bracket on the 1840 census but she is not listed on the 1840 census.
