Untitled, undated article; original source probably the Moberly Monitor
and reprinted in the Madison Times. Extracted from the newspaper
article collection started in 1879 by Mrs. Nannie Brown of Madison,
Missouri.



"(Unable to read first few lines) home of her son, J.H. Stewart, 410
Roberts street. Mrs. Stewart was born in Marion county, Virginia, May
6, 1829, and was in her 78th year. She was married to Joseph Stewart
March 23, 1847, and eight children were born of this union, two of whom
died in infancy. Mrs. Stewart, with her husband, came to Missouri in
1866 and for the past 3 years has made her home with her son, J.H.
Stewart of this city.

She leaves to mourn her demise her aged Joseph, and six children, three
sons, William L., of California, David W., of Muncie, Ind., J.H. of this
city; three daughters, Mrs. Mary J. Calloway, of Bloomington, Ill., Mrs.
F. Perry, of Moxley, Ky., and Mrs. Lucy B. Armstrong of Slater, all of
whom were at her bedside when the end came except Wm. L. One sister,
Mrs. Long Fleming of Anderson, Ind., and one brother D.R. Robey, of
Greentown, Ind., fifteen grandchildren and great grandchildren survive
her. For 17 years she has been a great sufferer, but last Saturday she
suffered a relapse and has been so low ever since that when the end came
it was like a baby falling gently to sleep.--Monitor.

Mrs. Stewart and family are well known to Madison's older citizens
having conducted a boarding house here for many years. The Times with
their many friends extend deepest sympathy."
