Biography

This profile describing Rev. Ira Rogers Steward was created without any sourcing. The only reference found subsequently is his grave memorial ^[1], hence all current data for this profile stem from that reference. From that, it appears that his surname was spelled Steward (not Stewart as originally constructed). More robust sourcing for this profile is encouraged, with significant edits expected.

He married in 1820, Matilda (Williams) Avery, widow of James M. Avery, whose husband had died soon before, in 1819. No children are listed of this union. The duration of this union, in and of itself, is uncertain, as the same grave memorial reference represents that this Rev. Ira Rogers Steward had 5 children via a marriage to Mary Harris. Those children were born during the timeframe from 1820 through 1833.

Rev. Ira Rogers Steward died 26 Dec 1867. His grave is in Cedar Grove Cemetery, New London, New London County, Connecticut, USA.
