Claim for $490 for carpenters work against all that 3-story brick building situate on the north side of Coats street at the distance of 92 feet east of Schuykill 4th street in the District of Spring Garden. -------------------- City Records D.C. Liens book #423; filed July 11, 1874; satisfied April 16, 1875 James S. Stewart (probable descendant) vs. William and Patrick Campbell, owners. Claim for $529.50 for carpenter work against two 3-story houses on the north side of Christian street, 114 feet and 130 feet, respectively, west of 20th street, each with 16 foot front and depth to Webster street. name: Roy Isbell email: roy@isbell.com phone: 251-432-6376 address: 910 Government Street city: Mobile state: AL zip: 36604 ancestor_info: James Stewart (b. abt 1788, d. 17 Feb 1856) m. Sarah Potter (b. abt 1790, d. 1872). James' children (according to our records) were James who married Josephine LNU, Martha, Margaret who married James Rodes, & (Sarah?) who married Samuel Roberts (MY 5th COUSIN, 6 TIMES REMOVED). Sarah? and Samuel Roberts d. between 1846-1860, leaving three daughters in the care of their grandparents, James & Sarah (Potter) Stewart: Sarah Ann Roberts, Rebecca Roberts, and Alice Potter (Roberts) who married (1) Oscar G. Morton (2) Samuel Sagers Shallcross. message: You have a lot of interesting information on the Stewarts. The only slight discrepancy between your history of Carpenters Hall is James Stewart's son Reuben, which I have listed as James (from the 1850 census), and you show no marriage for daughter Sarah. According to my calculations, Sarah (Stewart) Roberts was before 1824, James abt 1823, Martha abt 1825, and Margaret abt 1828. I have been tracing this family for 15 years.

James Stewart was a builder elected to the Carpenters' Company of Philadelphia in 1833. Stewart had served an apprenticeship with John Warner, an earlier master builder and member of the Carpenters' Company. Stewart resided at 17 Plum street. In 1850, the Managing Committee made an order for $160 for the present relief of James Stewart. It is unknown why Stewart required relief in 1850. He died in 1856.
