Section four the stewart family historical background

*(9) William (8/21/1779, near Carlisle, PA - 8/9/1825, Toby twp., Clarion Co., PA)

- m. 10/18/1802, Buffalo, Wash. Co., PA, Sarah McKibben STEWART - 33

- m. 10/21/1819, Mary "Polly" Parker (b. 5/5/1781) no children

William Stewart was born at Meeting House Springs, near Carlisle, in East Pennsboro twp., Cumberland Co., Pa. William, a blacksmith, followed his brothers , Benjamin and Galbraith, west to Washington Co, where he met Sarah McKibben at Buffalo, Pa. (HIR)

The family moved to Clarion Co. about 1808 and located about three miles west of Callensburg. A few years later he moved to the vicinity of Dutch Hill and located on what is now known as the Andrew Bowser farm (1912), where he remained until his death in 1825, age 46. He was a blacksmith by trade and tradition pictures him as a very large man of unususl physical strength. (Peter Snyder, 1912)

Sarah was the daughter of Thomas McKibben. Thomas McKibben came from Washington Co. about the same time as the Stewarts and was an early elder in the Concord Presbyterian church. (P. Snyder, 1912).

"I have heard the story of Mr. Stewart's death but cannot verify it. The story goes that he and Mrs. Stewart were making a trip on horseback, when not far from home he was taken so ill that they stopped and dismounted where he died under a tree somewhere near the top of Gates Hill." (P. Snyder, 1912)

William and both wives are buried in the lower cemetery at the Corcord Presbyterian church. Wm. Stewart's Bible was in the possession of Mrs. Lydia Slaugenhaupt, Sligo, PA, in 1968. A letter in that Bible reads: "This is to certify that the bearer, William Stuart is a member in full communion in the Church -- That Sarah Stuart his wife has enjoyed this privelege with him of Baptism for their children and that they are both free from Church censure or cause therefor know to us. Given at Buffalo April 8th. 1806. By order of Sexton. John Anderson"

This letter from Robert Stewart to his brother Galbraith tells of the death of William Stewart. James Anderson is the husband of Mary Stewart, their sister:

GENERATION XXI: children of William and Sarah McKibben Stewart
Four of the children of William Stewart married children of Robert McCall. Robert McCall was born in Ireland and settled in Toby Twp., Armstrong Co., PA, (now Perry Twp., Clarion Co.) near the family of William Stewart. Robert McCall married Elizabeth Thompson and had eight children: Esther; William, who married Mary Stewart; John; Thomas; Alexander, who married Peggy Allen Stewart; Sarah, who married Robert Stewart; Eliza who married William Stewart; and Margaret. After Elizabeth Thompson died, Robert McCall married Hannah McGarrah and they had eight children:James, Matthew, Eleanor, Jane (who married William Stewart, son of Thomas and Sarah Loffer Stewart), Harriet, Robert, Allen, and Lavina. (Commemorative Biographical Record of Central PA, J.H. Beers, 1898, p. 1423, from HIR,1962).
(1) Thomas - died November, 1803, age 1 month
*(2) Thomas (10/5/1804, Washington Co., PA - 10/22/1877, Toby twp.)

- m. 2/9/1826, Toby twp. to Susana Loffer, alias Susanna Lauffer, STEWART - 38

- m. 1865, Barbara Jemima Miller no children

Thomas (baptised in Buffalo in 1806) moved to Clarion Co. with his family about 1808. When he became of age he bought a tract of Government land of 140 acres in Toby twp., Clarion Co., paying the sum of $1.00 an acre. This land was entirely covered with timber which was gradually cleared off. This farm is now (1963) owned by David Allen Stewart, a great grandson of Thomas. Thomas and Susanna Lauffer Stewart attended the Presbyterian Church at Concord in Perry twp., Clarion Co., Pa., and both of them are buried in the lower Concord cemetery. After Susanna's death in 1864, Thomas married Barbara Jemima Miller who had been married to Mr. Clark. Jemima Clark Stewart lived to be 92 years old. (HIR, 1963)

"Thomas Stewart was a blacksmith by trade. He was a very large man, weighing 225 pounds. He was elected Associate Judge of Clarion Co. in the early 60's. Thomas and Susana Loffer Stewart are both buried in the Concord Cemetery." (P. Snyder, 1912)

The will of Thomas Stewart, probated 11/1/1881, was in the possession of Mrs. (Lydia) Glenn Slaugenhaupt of Sligo, Pa., when copied by Heber Rankin on July 20, 1959:
