Jean,

WOW! It will take a while to work out all the information. So here is all I have - it's not in a nice easy form (I keep meaning to put it on rootsweb, but haven't yet). You sure also get a good meaning about "family names" as if Stewart wasn't common enough!

Descendants of James Stewart:
1. James b. @1630 w. Ann
d. Susanna b. 23 May 1669
s. James b. 26 June 1672
d. Ann b. 22 January 1675
possibly others
Both Stewart Clan Magazine and Savage Dict. of N.E. Settlers state that James lived in Weymouth and was a sea Captain.

Well that is most of it. Are you in the New England area? It makes somethings easier to research. I will be off line 8/23 - 9/3, so if you see something useful write before the 23rd if you can. If not I'll get back to you when I can. I will pull apart your file to see how it matches. One theory for Daniel is that he came over on a prison ship. How did you find who your descendant was sold to? I hope this meshes.

Thanks for your help,
Cyndie
