- Stewart Clan Magazine says:
"Dugald Stewart apparently came from Scotland, with his wife and some children, in 1739 in the same influx of highland settlers as Patrick Stewart. Dugald died, intestate, prior to Apr. 13, 1756, when Thomas Stewart, his "oldest son and heir at law," sold 200 of the 640 acres to John Rea. Thomas died about 1760, leaving issue an only child, Elizabeth. This Elizabeth Stewart never married, and at her death some time after Apr. 7, 1812, she devised her plantation (apparently the remaining 440 acres of her father's estate) to her cousins -- Robert, Hector and Dugald Stewart... Elizabeth's cousins -- Robert, Hector and Dugald Stewart -- almost had to be grandsons of Dugald through a younger brother of Thomas.

Hector Stewart is cited in the will of John McNeill of the Bluff, 2 April 1799, Cumberland County, North Carolina, USA. He interited a mill from John McNeill. The forename Hector was common in the McNeill family. Hector was also a witness to the will, along with Alexander Stewart.
