Elizabeth, James, Joseph, and Samuel.
James Stewart had a son James Jr. and Joseph Stewart also had a son named
James. (These were not children or descendants of Edward Stewart but stated as
members of the family.
Their application was rejected because Edward Stewart was shown living in 1840
Davie Co., N.C. and was recieving his pension.
