Theodore L. Stewart was born Abt. 1867. Died Brooklyn NY 1940. He
married Mary Sullivan prior to 1890. Theodore and his family lived in
Denver at one point and owned a hotel. His mother was Mrs Josephine
Stewart who made Mrs McKinley's inaugural ball gown which would have
been prior to 1901 when President McKinley was shot and killed. I think
Mrs Josephine Stewart is listed in 1850 census and the 1869 NYC City
Directory. Sorry I do not have many dates. Thanks for any information
