Still searching for the 'roots' of my gr-grandfather, William Columbus Stewart.
He came to Morgan County IN from NC, (High Point Area, so they say). He was a young teen
when he arrived from NC to live with family already there. His parents are listed as
Nicholas J. Stewart and Matilda Leonard on his death certificate -- but his name is
nowhere to be found in records of those parents and children. He was born about 1859 in
NC, married Nancy Jane Britton in Morgan Co, and died in Indianapolis. He worked on the
Landers farm. He seems to be a nephew of "Aunt Fannie" Stewart, who maybe had a
boarding house. Does anyone have anything to connect him to the parents? or to some
other parents? Thanks in advance. Linda
