"N.J. Floyd, historical twist to the Stewart legends: (from
Southern Biographies and Genealogies, 1500s-1940s) Probated
August 2, 1784.
"Tradition, preserved by the Virginia and Georgia Stewarts,
states that the grandfather of Mary--Colonel John Stewart--who
came to Virginia from Berwickshire, Scotland--was a younger son
of the Duke of Berwick, born in Berwick Castle about 1660. On
account of political troubles he fled from the coast of England
in the night and landed in the New World with only his sword and
a stout heart."
As is later related, some believe this sword lies at Oak Hill
beside Permelia Stewart.
We think our General John Stewart's father is the John born 16
Oct., 1734, in Bristol Parish, Va, and entered in the Register.
The Stewart Clan Magazine (hereafter SCM) cites John's birth
from church records; see Tome B, vol. VIII, No. 12, Jun., 1930.
However, there is at least reasonable doubt that John Stewart,
known to be the father of General John Stewart and 12 other
children, is this John. The Bristol Parish record says: "John
S(on) of John and Mary Stuart, Born 16 octob' 1734 Bapt 19 Ap'
1735." (p. 367) But in 1783, there is a record noting:
"March 5, 1783, Amherst county: deposition of Martha Cole West
that she was 21 years old, or 22 years old, last June, from a
register kept by her father. John Stewart, aged 53 years,
deposed that to his certain knowledge Miss West, daughter of
John West, was over 21 years old."
About this record, the SCM (G, p. 239) notes that this bond was
signed Mar. 7, 1783, by George Gilbert, with Daniel Gaines as
his fellow bondsman, for Gilbert's marriage to Martha Cole West.
The marriage took place on the same day....
If our John Stewart (Stuart) was born in 1734, then he was not
53 in 1783. He was 50 and stated his age incorrectly. Or it was
recorded incorrectly.
John married about 1755, Anne Howe (Haw), in Hanover Co., Va.,
and was in Amherst Co. by 1762 when William was born.
The Stewarts before John, christened 19 Apr 1735, are uncertain,
although some believe to have sorted them out. This uncertainty
tends to abet long-standing family stories relating the descent
from a "natural" son of King James II of England. (Others have
tied the descent to Charles II.) The Georgia Stewarts have an
old tradition that their ancestor, the first Duke of Berwick was
a royal Stewart, a younger son of the Scottish James II. That
may be, but until, and if, we ever know the true descent of John
Stewart, the notion of royal linkage will persist, and not
without some whimsical charm. Elsewhere I have shown a notional
link to the Stewarts through James FitzJames, a son of the
English James II.
William Richard Stewart, who has extensive information on
numerous Stewarts, says: "On Sep. 20 1683, Mr.Thomas Anderson is
granted 400 acres in Charles City County, Westover Parish, south
side of the James River for transporting 8 persons. The list is
as follows: John Stewart, Elizabeth Kish, Valen Taylor, Thomas
Barrow, William Sheffield, Thomas Barret,William Stock, and
Joseph Fells. It should be pointed out that Charles City,
Bristol Parish, is on the south side of the Appomattox River,
now Chesterfield County. However, Bristol Parish, became part of
Hanover County, on May 12,1755, Saint Paul and St. Martin were
divided in Hanover County. On November 20,1683, Ann Hall, is
transported by Lt. Abraham Jones, into the Bristol Parish. A
tradition preserved by Virginia and Georgia Stewarts of this
particular line is that.... this John Stewart of the headright
is Colonel John Stewart, of Berwickshire, Scotland, the son of
the Duke of Berwick. (See N.J. Floyd, page 19.) Henrico County
reflects John Stewart buying 670 acres, in 1683, page 126."
Others have asserted that there is no Duke of Berwick in
Berwickshire and the whole story is preposterous. This belief
holds our John Stewart to be one of 12 or more John Stewarts
shipped to the new world variously after 1650 beginning with the
Cromwell cleansing of Royalist supporters and continuing through
the Monmouth Rebellion collapse in 1685 and into the 1700s.
Among these is Capt. John Stewart, one of the "List of Ninety
Rebells by the 'Happy Return' of Pool, Capt. Roger Wadham,
Commander, with the names of the Masters to whom they were
disposed of, by the Honble Col. John Hallett & Company, for
account of Sir William Booth and Captain James Kendall, December
1685. (See the excellent unpublished work by Jim Mordy, sent to
me by Lawrence Reno, May, 2001, which cites John C. Hotten's
"Original Lists of Persons of Quality.... Who went from Great
Britain to the American Plantations, 1600- 1700," Baltimore,
1962, reprint of the 2nd ed., 1880, p. 329.) This John, or any
of the others arriving on these passages, could be our forebear.
John Stewart's will (from photocopy from Terry Honan, a
descendant of John): Will of John Stewart Will Book 2 pages
190-191 Amherst Co., Virginia April 14, 1784
In the name of God Amen, I John Stewart of the parish & County
