John Stewart Family Bible

Nona Lee Stewart of Nashville, Arkansas wrote to me in 1981 that she had “a page or two” of the John J. Stewart family BIble.  She summarized the information as follows:

John J. Stewart born June 20, 1809, died June 12,1879
Mary Ann Guinn born September 9, 1813, died December 14, 1899
married September 6, 1834
John Robert born November 1, 1834
George Washington born August 9, 1836
Matilda Jane born February 12, 1838
Alexander Harvey born November 28, 1840
William Lafayette born February 21, 1843
Sarah Ann born January 12, 1845
Joseph Varnell born February 11, 1849
Mary Virginia Elizabeth born December 5, 1855

 

According to later records, the two eldest children were born in Alabama, the rest in Tennessee. Mrs. Stewart added that Mary Ann Guinn was the daughter of John Guinn and Nancy Varnell.
