Research Notes
There is uncertainty about birth date, perhaps because there could be two Joseph Stewarts. Births of children to Friends at Greenwich/Cohansey Meeting Page 1, https://www.wikitree.com/photo/jpg/Births_and_Burials_of_Greenwich_Meeting_in_Cohansey_New_Jersey and Craig both list 1773 date above, however the writing is difficult to read in this Friends page. At first, I thought father there was Jonas, but I accepted it could be John. Later down on the page, however, a separate section clearly is about John. At that point, I concluded that actually the first lines on top of the page must be for James.

It does seem like more than one Joseph Stewart was conflated on this page. Since it looks like this profile was meant to be for the Joseph Stewart from a family in the Carolinas, I moved the Greenwich, NJ Joseph Stewart information to a new profile: Joseph Stewart (1773-1780).
