    Notes:

    From Atlas Map of Scott, illinois 1873, Andreas, Lyter & Co., Davenport, Iowa

    DR. H. M. STEWART was born in Bedford, Virginia, on the 22d of August, 1806. His parents, Thomas and Mary Stewart, were both natives of Virginia. His father emigrated to Madison, Kentucky, in 1811, and settled in the town of Richmond, where the remains of both parents still repose in the old graveyard of that place. His father was a carpenter by trade, which he followed many years. They were both members of the M. E. Church, converted under the preaching of Lorenzo Dow, and he was a local preacher, and followed preaching up to the time of his death. The subject of this sketch received his early education in Kentucky, and at the age of nineteen his father died, and he continued to work on the farm until he arrived at the age of twenty. He then began the study of medicine in the office of Dr. Jonathan Stout, of Richmond, Kentucky, where he spent three years, when he went to New Orleans, stopping there one year, after which he returned to Kentucky, visiting a short time with the friends of his youth, and then located in Harrison, Indiana, where he continued the practice of his profession until 1837. From there he emigrated to Morgan, Illinois (now Scott County), settling where he now resides, near the town of Exeter, on section 35, which was his first purchase, and where he built and improved. A view of the house which he erected at that time may be seen elsewhere in this map. Here the Doctor began the practice of his profession, which he continues to this day, much against his inclination, but the people will not allow him to retire. He has always enjoyed a large practice, and what is remarkable, has never hung out a sign of any description. He was married in 1830, to Miss Liza A. Madden, a native of Kentucky, and daughter of John Madden, Esq. They were married in Harrison, Indiana, in 1831. Mrs. Stewart died that year. They had one child, Clayton M., who now resides at the old homestead. In 1835 the Doctor was again married, to Miss Caroline Madden, sister of his first wife. She died March 19, 1870. They had six children, five of whom are now living, all married with the exception of one, - Henry C., who is now in Colorado. The Doctor has raised six sons, three of whom are practicing physicians. His son Charles died at the age of twenty.
     Dr. Stewart has always taken a very active part in politics. Since the organization of the republican party he has been an active supporter of its principles, and a staunch friend of the Union during the late war. He was a great admirer of President Lincoln, supporting him in both campaigns. Two of his sons were in the army. He did all in his power to encourage enlistments, and gave liberally of his means to the families of those who volunteered, and also obeyed every call when his professional services were needed, gratuitously, in the families of the gallant boys in the field.
     Dr. Stewart’s eldest son, Clayton M., read medicine in the office of his father three years, attended lectures at the Missouri Medical College, at St. Louis, where he graduated, and returning home, began the practice with his father, which he continued two years. In 1860 and 1861 he attended lectures at the Jefferson Medical College, at Philadelphia, where he graduated. The second son, J. Horace Stewart, upon the breaking out of the rebellion, volunteered in the 14th regiment Illinois volunteers as a private. He was promoted to quartermaster of the regiment, which position he held until the regiment was mustered out of the service at the close of the war, when he returned home. In the fall of 1868 he was elected to the office of sheriff of Scott county by the republican party. His third son resides with his father-in-law at or near Riggston. His daughter Eliza Ann is the wife of Dr. B. H. Skinner, who resides at Merit, Scott, Illinois. John H., who now resides in Exeter, graduated at Rush Medical College, Chicago. The Doctor has one of the finest grain stock, and fruit farms in the, consisting of five hundred and fifty acres of land. A view of his residence appears elsewhere in this Map.
