Biography

Samuel Stuart is a member of Clan Stewart.
This profile is part of the Stewart Name Study.

Samuel Stuart (Stewart) is said to have been born in County Londonderry, Ireland around September 1714, but his parents were from Scotland. The names of his father and mother are unknown at this time. He was married ca. 1750 to Jane Dickey, also born in Ireland, the daughter of James Dickey and Catherine (Huet) Dickey, born about 1715 in Ireland (See Huet-174). Samuel and Jane Stuart immigrated to the British American Colonies about 1750 likely to Chester County, Pennsylvania, and settled about 1753-54 in a part of Orange County, North Carolina that later became Chatham County. There they lived out their lives together farming and rearing eight children. Samuel Stuart was a weaver, Keeper of the Gaol (Jail), and a land speculator in Chatham County. Jane Stuart died about 1810, and was buried in Cane Creek Monthly Meeting (Friends/Quaker) Cemetery in present-day southwestern Alamance County, NC. Sometime after her death Samuel moved to Georgia with his youngest son Samuel Stuart, Jr., but then settled with his son James Stuart and his family in an area of upstate South Carolina that came to be known as Anderson County.

Samuel passed away in 1824, at about 109 years of age, in what is now Anderson County, South Carolina. His actual burial place is unknown, but is supposed to have been buried next to his son James Stuart, with whom he was living at that time. Find A Grave provides a huge history on the man and his family on his memorial page, and is repeated below in this biographical sketch.

SAMUEL STUART, THE IMMIGRANT

In the year, 1859, Edward "Ned" Stuart, grandson of this Samuel Stuart, wrote his family history which he called the HISTORY OF THE STUARTS.

Edward "Ned" Stuart was a school teacher, in Moore and Chatham Counties, North Carolina for over forty years.

He was 59 years old when he wrote his family history.

The following is from that family history.

"My paternal grandfather, Samuel Stuart, with his wife, whose maiden name was Jane Dickey, emigrated to this country from Londonderry, Ireland, something more than a century ago (i.e. before 1759).

They came to this country man and wife, though I believe all their children were born in this country.

They had a number of children I will give their names so that their, descendants may be able to claim relation with each other, as they are widely scattered.

I remember seeing him (Ed., must have meant his grandfather, and Ned was born in 1800) and regret very much that he did not live until I was old enough to enquire of him.

He was for the time, very intelligent; something more of the ancestors; He was of the Scotch Irish race; he lived to be over a hundred years old."

In 1906, Q. A. Oats, Methodist Preacher, in Mississippi, and great-grandson of Samuel Stuart, wrote the following in a letter, to his cousin.

"Your great grandfather, Stuart, and mine, was born in Londonderry, Ireland.

He was Scotch, as were his parents.

The name Stuart is derived from the line of Scotch kings.

Alderman Frenchman was Steward to King David, of Scotland and got his name.

He married the King's daughter, and their descendants were called Stuarts.

The branch of the family we descended from, fled to Ireland when King William, of Orange conquered Scotland.

Our great grandfather was Samuel Stuart. He married Jane Dickey. They came to this country with the Puritans,--from there to Virginia, from there to the Scotch settlement in Chatham County, North Carolina;, finally settled in Moore County," (Ed note: I do not know how much of this was fact and how much was legend that had been handed down to him.) Another family history from Samuel Stuart's granddaughter, Nancy Violet Stuart, stated that Samuel Stuart was from the Royal House of Scotland and England and that he emigrated from Scotland when the Kingdoms of England and Scotland combined. (Ed note: I believe this should have been stated that he emigrated after the kingdoms combined, because he was born about 1714 and that was about the time the two kingdoms combined. It might have been our Samuel Stuart's father that left Scotland and went to Ireland about 1714. From the above histories we conclude that Samuel Stuart must have emigrated about 1750, Where he landed in America is not known, but it probably was Philadelphia and then he moved to Orange County, North Carolina, SAMUEL STUART IN AMERICA Samuel Stuart probably stayed in Pennsylvania a short period of time, before moving to North Carolina, He could have moved to North Carolina with the Lindleys, Hollingsworths and Harlans, "These families resided in the Kennet township of Chester County, Pennsylvania, until about the year 1753, when in company with others they all moved to Chatham County (then Orange County), North Carolina, and settled on "Cane Creek"." This information was obtained from the book, THE HARLAN FAMILY, by Alpheus H. Harlan. The earliest Tax List of Orange County, North Carolina to survive until today is the 1755 List and it contains the names of SAMUEL STUART, John Stuart and James Stuart among others. I believe that James and John Stuart were close relatives of our Samuel Stuart. The Orange County, North Carolina Court Minutes of March 1758 mentions a Samuel Stuart as Keeper of the Goal (Jail). A part of Orange County, NC in 1770 became Chatham County. Mr. William D, Bennett of Raleigh, NC, while doing research for Mr. Milton Stewart of Cornelia, GA in 1982 located the following grants in the Secretary of State Papers from Orange County, NC: 6 May 1756 - Entry - John Stewart - 640 acres on south side of Haw River on Robinsons Creek. 1 Aug 1756 - Entry - John Stewart - 640 acres on south side of Haw River adjoining William Marsh. 23 Nov 1761- Entry '" James Stewart Jr. by John Stewart on Robesons Creek waters of Haw River adjoining William Petty's line. 13 Dec 1762- SAMUEL STEWART - 700 acres on Terrells Creek of Haw River - including his improvements. 22 Oct 1763- Entry - John Stewart - 206 acres on waters of Haw River adjoining William Marsh and Markis. (From STEWART CLAN MAGAZINE of August 1948). Samuel Stuart was living in Orange County. NC, on Jun 1, 1766, when Hugh Linon of that county made his will and appointed "my friends Samuel Stuart and William Lindsay" executors. Linon bequeathed to Stuart. "my slave Hannah until she is 18." Linon, who was from Ireland, owned land on Pine Hill Creek, a small stream flowing into Cane Creek, and when Chatham County was set off from Orange in 1770 most of Pine Hill Creek went with it. Samuel Stuart, of Chatham County, NC, bought Feb 8, 1777 of Matthew Fike 150 acres of land "beginning at an ash on the river bank" and the witnesses to the deed were Argulas Henderson and George Stuart. This was in Chatham County, and when Samuel Stuart sold this land July 31, 1784 to Charles Morgan, Sr., the witnesses to the deed were Joseph Morgan and John Stuart. Samuel Stuart was granted Mar 3, 1779, 272 acres and also 578 acres on both sides of Pine Hill Creek in Chatham County, NC. Samuel was called "weaver" when he deeded 50 acres of the above land to William Neblett, weaver, on April 22, 1780. Samuel deeded Aug 1, 1785, to Joseph Hadley 384 acres on Pine Hill Creek, adjoining John Pyle. The witnesses to this deed were Aaron Harlan and James Stuart. Samuel was granted Oct 3, 1782, 100 acres of land on the branches of Love's Creek, waters of Rocky River, and was designated "weaver" when he sold this tract Feb 12, 1787 to John Lambert, planter: witnesses, Thomas Beaver and John Stuart. On Dec 21 1782, Samuel bought of Joseph Hadley 300 acres of land adjoining Timothy Terrell on Vernon's Creek on the waters of Deep River. Chatham County NC. The witnesses to the deed were Joshua Hadley and Adam Stuart. On May 6, 1785, Samuel Stuart, weaver, bought, of William George, planter, 52 acres on Terrell's Creek, waters of Rocky River adjoining Hadley: witnesses, Aaron Harlan and Aaron Terrell. On Aug 9, 1787, Samuel was granted 100 acres on the head of Terrell's Creek, adjoining William George. On Sep 11, 1787, he deeded to Jacob Cohat 350 acres of land on both sides of Pine Hill Creek which had been granted to him. The witnesses to his signature (always Sal Stuart) were Edward Stuart and James Woolason. That makes five other Stuarts who have signed as witnesses - George, Adam, John, James and Edward. The census of 1790 showed one Samuel Stewart was head of a family in Chatham County, NC, he had apparently, a wife, 3 sons over 16, one son under 16, and a daughter and five slaves. He lived in a Quaker neighborhood but was probably not a Quaker.

One Samuel Stuart, probably the same, bought Sep 9, 1791, of William Hardin of Moore County, NC, 640 acres of land on the waters of Little Brush Creek, adjoining Thompson and Greaves, in Chatham County, NC and the witnesses to the deed were Jacob Teague and Samuel Stuart, Jr.

There were many more deeds, and one in 1801 referred to Samuel Stuart as "of Moore County, NC" (End of article from STEWART CLAN MAGAZINE).

Again quoting Mr. William D. Bennett, professional researcher of Raleigh, NC:

"It is to believe that Samuel Stuart is the one who entered land on Terrells Creek in 1762.

This is on the northeast side of Haw River about opposite Terrells Creek.

With the closing of the Granville Land Office in Mar 1763 following the death of Lord Granville, it is very probable no grant was issued for this tract.

From then until 1778 it was impossible to obtain title to vacant land in this area (the Granville Tract).

Today Pine Hill and Cane Creeks are in the southwestern corner of Alamance County For a better understanding of the deeds, the term "on the waters of" meant that the land was drained by that particular stream but was not bounded by the stream.

Samuel seems to have speculated in land, which was very common at this period.

His land purchases extend from one side of Chatham to the other.

Brush Creek is on the western edge of Chatham and flows into Randolph County before emptying into Deep River.

I presume Bloody Creek is present day Bloodrun Creek.

COURT MINUTES

The Abstracts of Court Minutes of the Pleas and Quarter Sessions of Chatham County. NC taken from the NORTH CAROLINA GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY JOURNAL mentions Samuel Stuart several times. These minutes cover the period from May 1774 to May 1778.

Samuel Stewart, overseer of road from the Great Branch of Dry Creek to the Orange County. NC line (May 1774).

  • Samuel Stewart…
  • Grand Jury duty…

Orphans, Sarah Jones, 14, and Jemimah Jones, 8 bound to Samuel Stewart (Aug 1774).

  • Esquires present… Samuel Stewart.

Samuel Stewart overseer of road from Terrell's Creek to Blasingame's Branch.

  • Esquires Justices: Samuel Stewart.
  • Processioners in Capt. Harper's District:

Samuel Stewart and Jeduthan Harper (May 1775).

  • Esquires present…

Samuel Stewart & Balaam Thompson (Aug 1775).

Court ordered that Samuel Stewart have leave to turn the publick road a small distance round his plantation (May 1776).

Court ordered that Martin Crutchfield be appointed overseer of the road in room of Samuel Stewart (Aug 1777). End of Court Minutes.

Federal Census of 1800

shows Samuel Stuart living in Moore County, NC which is .located adjacent to Chatham County in the 1800 Census.

Samuel is listed as being born before 1755 as is his wife and another female born between 1774 and 1784 is living with them.

His son, Samuel Stewart, Jr. is listed in Chatham County, NC and was born between 1755 and 1774.

The Federal Census of 1810 of North Carolina does not list Samuel Stuart, Sr., but does list his son, Samuel Stuart, Jr. still living in Chatham County, NC and shows a male born before 1765 living with Samuel Jr.

My guess is that Samuel Stuart Sr.'s wife Jane (Dickey) Stuart, died between 1800 and 1810 and that old Samuel moved in with his son back in Chatham County, NC.

We know from the Family History and by deeds in North Carolina and Georgia that Samuel Stuart, Jr. moved his family to Georgia in 1811 and I believe that Samuel Stuart Sr. went with him and stayed with another of his sons, James Stuart, in Anderson County, SC and remained there until he died circa 1824.

As mentioned before we know he was at a wedding in South Carolina in 1814 and a letter written in 1906, by Q. A. Oats said that Samuel Stuart died in South Carolina. When his son, James Stuart died in Anderson County, SC in 1844, his obituary stated that he was buried next to his father who lived to be 96 and his father-in-law who lived to be 116. (I believe they were confused on these ages.)

According to one Family History, Samuel Stuart lived to be 110 years of age and danced, at age 100, at the wedding of his granddaughter, Nancy Violet Stuart to Mathew Elias Cunningham, in South Carolina.

Samuel Stuart lived to be more 100 according to the Family History written by Ned Stuart in 1859.

Using the above information, Samuel Stuart was born circa 1714 in Ireland(?) and died circa 1824 in Anderson County, South Carolina and was buried there.

SAMUEL STUART'S CHILDREN

Here is what the Family History, written in 1859 by Ed "Ned" Stuart had to say about the children of Samuel Stuart:

  • The oldest son, GEORGE was slain in the Revolution at what is called Pile's Hacking Match, in Orange County, NC. He died unmarried and left no children.
  • The next, ADAM settled in Darlington District, SC.
  • The third, JAMES settled in Georgia.
  • EDWARD, my father, the fourth son, man of this history hereafter, and
  • JOHN, the fifth son, also settled in Darlington District, SC. and
  • SAM, the youngest, lived until his oldest children were grown, on Rocky River in Chatham County, NC, then moved to Georgia.

They also brought up two daughters. BETTIE married a man by the name …” Ed note: The history is torn and we do not have the name of the second daughter.

I am also interested in Samuel's paternal line. Any new information out there?

Based on Ancestry DNA matches with some of Samuel Stuart’s other children’s descendants, as well as some fairly clear documentary evidence of a connection between an Adam Stuart of Darlington District, SC and my ancestor John Stuart (died sometime before January 2, 1809) of Williamsburg and Sumter Districts, SC, as well as after discovering the Samuel Stuart history (Wallaces of Moore County, NC) which identifies two of his sons Adam and John Stuart as having migrated to Darlington District, SC, I have concluded that I am a direct descendant of Samuel and Jane Dickey Stuart of Orange (Chatham) County, NC. Adam Stuart deeded some property to my John Stuart’s widow Elizabeth Stuart (née Frierson) and two of her minor children in 1813-14, all of which I surmise was part of the settlement of John’s estate. I believe John died sometime before January 2, 1809, as that is the date of guardianship for his eldest son John Stuart, Jr., born about 1792-93 (US Army enlistment record during the War of 1812). Samuel E. Dickey of Williamsburg District, SC (possibly a relative of Jane Dickey Stuart) was granted John Jr.’s guardianship by the court in Kingstree, SC. Being a native of Williamsburg County, SC, I had always assumed that I descended from James (died 1758) and Elizabeth Stuart (d. 1763?), original 1736 Scots-Irish immigrant settlers of Williamsburg Township (District), SC through their son William Stuart (died 1770); however, after one dead end after another I began to look elsewhere. I am more or less satisfied that I am descended from Samuel and Jane Dickey Stuart of Chatham County, NC.

My question though is why has there been no progress in discovering who Samuel Stuart (1713/14-1724)’s parents were? No credible documentary evidence has been put forward by anyone of whom I am aware on this or any other genealogical platform on the internet. Only some that have not panned out when put to the test or theories assigning royal lineage from one of Charles II, James II, or James Edward Francis Stuart, the would-be James III or The Old Pretender’s illegitimate sons. Really! His parentage may simply be unknown. Was he orphaned or after all this time has no one attempted to verify that his parents were living in or near Londonderry, Ireland when he was born in or about 1714? There are good parish records there and elsewhere in Northern Ireland (I.e. Public Record Office of Northern Ireland or PRONI).

According to DNA, I’m linked to Samuel as well. My ancestor that seems close to Samuel is James Stewart Sr. (1705-1775), perhaps they are close cousins or related through marriage in the USA?

Please share your DNA testing results as I can't find you thru FTDNA Family Finder. Which we both took...

I look forward to sharing any info on Samuel.

Hi John! I was going off DNA connections here on Wikitree, I didn’t check FTDNA, but now that I have, I don’t think we are a match, as I can’t find your name under my FF results either.

When I posted this, I had recently found a new ancestor named Samuel and thought it might be this Samuel. My Gedmatch comparison shares some DNA through descendants here, but they are small strands and probably just coincidental, since you aren’t a match on FTDNA FF.

That said, some relatives don’t share the same DNA and won’t match under FF results, especially for ancestors several generations removed from those being tested.

As of right now, I don’t think we are a DNA match, but I do have an ancestor James Stewart in Chatham, NC that might be related to your Samuel. My paper trail on James is pretty strong and I’m confident he is one of my ancestors.

You might want to check his profile for possible links to Samuel?:

I have been working on the Stewart/Stuart connection to my family on my mother and my fathers sides of the Bayliss and Litton Trees.

I have read researched every lead to confirming Samuel Stewart's Father and Mother. I finally decided to research the information infromation in the "Samuel Stewart the Immigrant. However I can not connect Sammeul to the English or Scottish Royal lines. Anyone else have any ideas.

I have traced my Stewart ancestors to Samuel who came over from Ireland, but I'm not really sure. I would like to find his father, who may or may not have been Andrew Stewart. Does anyone have any information about these people? Samuel was married to Jane Dickey if that helps. I would also like to know if he participated in the American Revolution.
