I recently found this info while searching for my Stewart family, although I
found no connection to my family I thought I'd pass this along!

Robert Stewart born Jan. 25, 1711 in Kennett Township, Chester Co., PA,
married 1st about 1733 in PA Martha Richardson (daughter of Isaac Richardson
and Catherine Gandy. She had a sister Elizabeth Richardson who married a
Chadds and died in PA.), 2nd Martha Margaret Stewart, died before 1790 in
Wilkes Co., GA. Martha Richardson was born May 23, 1717 in Whiteland
Township, Chester Co., PA, died 1793 in Wilkes Co., GA. She was a Quaker and
was disowned by the Concord monthly meeting for being married by a 'priest".
He was four when his father died and left him his Kennett Township property
which he gained title to at age 21. He refused to be a Quaker an adopted the
spelling Stuart although later he did use the Stewart spelling. He sold his
East Marlborough township land on Jan. 28, 1734 and moved to Whiteland
township where his mother-in-law lived. About 1750 moved to Robeson Township,
Berks Co., PA. Moved to the Frederick Co. in the Shenandoah Valley of VA, but
finding no location to their liking moved on to Cane Creek, Orange Co. (now
Almance Co.), NC where Matha and her daughters Mary, Catherine and Rachel
were received from the Exeter Quaker Monthly Meeting in Berks Co. to the Cane
Creek Monthly Meeting on Jan. 7, 1758 and Robert and Alexander and the
