I have STEWARTs and WILSONs in the Carolinas......

John WILSON I 1700-1774, wife unknown
John WILSON II 1730-1799 married Rebechah Unknown
Jesse WILSON 1755-1780 Married Mary Unknown of Fairfield Co. S.C.
Nancy WILSON 1803-1885 married LeRoy W. STEWART 1792-1865 (son
of John STEWART and Unknown)
John Sterling STEWART 1849-1912 married Harriet ISOM 1856-1943
Ulysses Coleman STEWART (1882-1956) married Eula Belle

get more information on LeRoy W. STEWART and Nancy WILSON and LeRoy's
parents, John STEWART and wife shown above.

>Rosannah STEWART (1770-1839) gave her birthplace as TN and m. to Robert
Boyd in 1788. My understanding is that, in 1770 all of eastern TN was NC
until 1796. In any event, are any of my STEWART cousins connected to
STEWART ancestors of that time and place?. Rosannah's father, Joseph
STEWART (abt. 1745 -1807) later settled in 96 (Newberry) CO, SC where he
and his wife Mary raised sons Joseph (abt. 1768-?), John (abt.1772-?)and
Samuel (1780-1839). Their daughters, in addition to Rosannah, were: Mary
(1777 -1838 m. Samuel McClure), unknown (1774 -?) m. George McDonald) and
Esther b. 1784, marriage unknown.

others doubt his or any other families settled there until the cessation of
the Cherokee troubles after 1766. Any fertile ideas?
