Title: Sarah Ann Stewart, West Auckland/Shildon
Post by: shadow9 on Saturday 10 January 09 17:06 GMT (UK)

I am seeking anyone who has any information on the above named, who was probably part of the Stewart family who came over from Ireland, her father was John Stewart and her mother was Jane.  I think John was born in Co Tyrone in about 1811.

Sarah died in 1883 when she was about 28 - her husband was Isaac Stephenson whom she married after her first son, Robert was born.  Robert kept the Stewart name as he was illegitimate.

If anyone is descended from this Irish family of Stewarts (Sarah had several brothers) and reads this please can you get in touch?

Thanks
Shadow9

Hi

I have Stewart relatives in the St Helen Auckland areas of Durham but mine originated in Scotland. Names are John and William and Ann Stewart.
