Skwavt jamili^.

This ancient and honorable family of Stewart, of Liberty

County, Georgia, arrived in this country at an early day,

and first landed in North Carolina; thence moved to Dor-

chester, South Carolina, as early as 1723, and from there

went to Liberty County, Georgia, in 1752, being among the

first settlers in that county.

The chief of this line came from or near Edinburgh, Scot-

land, before 1723, as that is the date of birth of first child,

although it is possible that the family came over with its

father from Scotland. This family had a Coat of Arms, and

has contributed to the welfare of the country in war andpeace. Among its members of prominence may be men-tioned John Stewart, Sr., who was one of the Selectmen of

Midway Church in 1760, and who came to Georgia in 1754;

General Daniel Stewart, a soldier of the Revolutionary

War, after whom Stewart County in Georgia was named;his son, Colonel Daniel Stewart, and Judge Henry J. Stew-

art of Florida. This family was a prominent one in Geor-

gia, owing to its standing, services performed and marriage

alliances, and certainly ranks among the foremost pf Liberty

County, Georgia.

General Daniel Stewart, son of John Stewart and Susan-

nah, grandson of John Stewart, Sr. and Jerusha, and great-

grandson of John and Hannah Stewart, was born December

20, 1761, and was a gallant soldier of the Revolutionary

War, and to him the country owes a debt of gratitude which

it can scarcely ever repay. Stewart County was named after

General Daniel Stewart.' He married, first, Martha Pen-

der.November, 1783; he married, second, Susannah Oswald,

daughter of either Robert and Susannah Oswald, planter

in South Carolina, or of Joseph Oswald. This name ex-

tends back into the annals of Carolina to about 1723. and

they were then found there as planters. In the Disqualify-

ing Act the name of Joseph Oswald occurs as "planter," and

both Joseph and Robert Oswald are found as members of

Midway Church. In 1751 we find in South Carolina, Rob-

ert Oswald, of Pon-Pon, Colleton County, planter, and

Susannah -his wife. The name is a good one in Liberty

Count}', Georgia.

XoTE.—We find in October, 1772, John Stuart, Councillor, taking

oath of allegiance to George III; also, Jno. Stnart, Colonel of Artillery in

Oeor<;ui Brigade of Couiiuentid Line; also in DiMiualifying Act, JosephOswald, planter; aud in list of those granted land in 17"j"J. Joseph Os-

The gallant General Daniel Stewart, who so ably assist-

ed the colonists in obtaining their independence and was

so frequently in battle with Alarion and Sampler, was born

October 20, 1761, at New Port, Georgia, and was married,

first, at Dorchester, South Carolina, February 20. 1783, by

Rev. Mr. Ellington to Martha Pender, who was born Nov-

ember 1763, Dorchester, South Carolina. She had one

son:

March, 21, 17S4.

The Roosevelts are an ancient family of New York, of

Dutch descent. The Robinsons are an old Vir<;inia family

and descended from the House of Douglas, and the family

of Sears and Gracie are fine ones.

This ancient family came to Carolina at an early day andembraces amon^' its member'--, manv honorable and emi-nent men, and as i.t has been a disputed point as to whetherthe family of Elliott of Liberty Count}', Geor^cia, belongedto the. Northern branch who came with Rev. WilliamScreven to Carolina, and was a very honorable line, orwhether they belonged to the Elliotts who came from Corn-wall, England, via Bermuda and then to South Carolinaand known as the South Carolina Elliotts, or whether it

belonged to some other branch of Elliott, it now seemsproper to place the family where they rightly belong, hencewe herewith present adequate proofs to show that theElliotts of Georgia were an otishoot or branch of the SouthCarolina Elliotts. The Northern Elliott line are extinct asfar as can be learned in male line in South Carolina.

We here introduce a copy of a deed taken from recordsin Carolina : ''Between John Elliott of Colleton County-planter, only son and heir at law of William Elliott, late ofsaid county planter, deceased, wiio was only brother v/holeft issue surviving him, of Thomas (John) Elliott late of

said county planter, deceased, and cousin-german by hisfather's side and heir at law to Amarinthia Elliott, (after-
