He was the tenth of thirteen children born to John and Christena Stewart. He was married July 1, 1852, to Miss Lydia H. Reed. They lived on the farm in Brandywine township for two years following the marriage, then moved to Clark county, Illinois, but returned here three years later and had since been residents of this county. -Mr. and Mrs. Stewart were the parents of thirteen children, nine of whom with the widow survive. The children are Riley Stewart, of Indianapolis; Mrs. J. H. Huffman, Mrs. Harve Arnold, Mrs. Tom Tillison, Mrs. John Mallory, Mrs. Gideon Oldham, all of Fairland and vicinity; Mrs. Grant Armstrong, of Marietta; Mrs. Jay Hahn, of Wabash, & Mrs. Rafe Alexander, who made her home with her parents. -Mr. Stewart was a life-long member of the Brandywine M.E. church.
