Note that <strong>the</strong> 1900 census is <strong>the</strong> only census that recorded <strong>the</strong> actual month <strong>and</strong> year <strong>of</strong> birth.<br />
One research source states that after Sallie <strong>Stewart</strong> Steele died (date unknown), her sister<br />
Henrietta married James Steele.<br />
William E. <strong>Stewart</strong>, a widower <strong>and</strong> son <strong>of</strong> James Franklin <strong>and</strong> Cornelia <strong>Stewart</strong>, <strong>and</strong> his three<br />
children, lived nearby to <strong>the</strong> Steele family in 1900:<br />
William E. <strong>Stewart</strong> age 32 b: 9/1867<br />

Andrew H. <strong>Stewart</strong> age 6 b: 1/1894<br />
Charles E.. <strong>Stewart</strong> age 5 b: 12/1895<br />
Finally, in 1900, we find that James Fillmore <strong>Stewart</strong> had married <strong>and</strong> had a family <strong>of</strong> his own:<br />

The data indicates that James was a farmer but rented his farm in Palarm Township, Faulkner<br />
County, AR. The data indicated that James <strong>and</strong> Emma were married 19 years in 1900 (marriage<br />
date 13 April 1881) <strong>and</strong> that Emma had 6 children <strong>of</strong> which all six survived. However, seven<br />
children are listed in <strong>the</strong> census.<br />
Rufus B. <strong>Stewart</strong> continued <strong>the</strong> family line.<br />
