Stewarts came to America as early as the 17th century. My sixth great-grandfather was Captain Ralph Stewart. He witnessed his father, James, be burned at the stake by Shawnee indians in 1757. He was eight years old. He was pardoned for murder (long story) in 1773, commissioned a Captain by Lord Dunmore of Virginia (renewed later by Governor Patrick Henry), and fought all throughout the American War of Independence. He fought at the Battle of Point Pleasant in 1774 (the first battle of the American Revolution) and he was at Yorktown when Cornwallis surrendered. He stood guard over the captive general. Ralph married twice, and had thirteen children. He died on November 18, 1835, a month shy of his 86th birthday. Damn good genes, I must say. Love to my fellow Stewarts!

My grandfather, William Charles Stuart, received a royal inheritance, just as did his 2nd wife, upon their marriage as it was held by their parents to be so, made specific in the will. He & Reva were planned births as royalty do, to be wed & the only way either could recieve their shares. Upon grandfather's death, when we held the funeral, people showed up from all over the US, seems like they came from around the world ! Our little town was flooded with family & more wealthy people in 1 place than I'd ever seen in ny life. Just to come & show their respects & honor for the passing of last direct descendant of the Stuart dynasty.

His son Reuben stewart served in ww1 and was awarded personally by the French President the highest declaration for gelentry they could award to a Non commissioned officer for saving lives on the somme and few other things. His son served in ww2 at Monte grappa and the Pacific. His son become a fisherman and now im a fisherman.

Just a further thought. The Stewarts were originally Fitzalan's and were Bretons, from Dol-de-Bretagne.

[@truthmatters4654]

yes you are correct.

[@simhifree2416]

FitzAlan's also were given the name of Cathcart and had Cathcart Castle built above the White Cart River, now known as Linn Park. When the Scottish Stewarts ended, the Cathcart name continued, to this day there is an Earl Cathcart that rents out Sundrum Castle. There is an old tree on the Castle grounds with the name Fitz carved into it high up. The Stewart's are buried at Paisley Abbey.

[@TresonBerry]

Yes. I come from this line as well as the incoming William the conquerer. We have the blood of Kings

[@Brosky1998]

They were originally bretons, but quickly became Normans through name and interbreeding with Normans

[@Brosky1998]

Penelope Pittstop Not true. The Stewart’s came from Alan Fitz Flaad and then his son Walter Fitz Alan. Originally a Breton family with Flaad, the Fitz Alan family became mostly Norman from mixing with the Normans during the invasion. They got the name Stewart from stewarding the king being a family occupation

I legitimately descend from James V and Margaret Tudor (12th great grandparents) , also from James IV by by James V & Margaret Tudor (legitmate line) two mistresses (Margaret Drummond and Agnes Stewart) so James IV is my great grandfather 3 x over. Its sort of wild how many Stewarts and Stuarts are in my family line, primarly because of James IV. I can trace lineage back to the first Stewart and also Robert the Bruce. So many clans in my ancestry, Drummonds, Douglas, Erskine, de Warrene, Campbells, Gordons, seems like i am related to all the nobility of Scotland because of the Stewarts.

Stuart was the French spelling I think and I think it means "Stuard" an older sort of spelling I have seen written means "Caretaker of" or similar.
