Notes |
- Stewart Clan Magazine says, "Catherine Stewart, born about 1742, married (1) Dec. 25, 1764, William Little, Jr., of Edenton, N.C. Sometime after their marriage Catherine and her husband moved from Bladen County to Cheraws District, South Carolina, in company with her parents. Mr. Little died in the latter part of 1766. When Catherine's father made his will in 1772 he appointed her and Alexander Gordon executors. She married (2) July --, 1774, John Speed. These data are from a sketch written by Morgan Brown, who was born in 1758 and married in 1784, as his second wife, Elizabeth Little, daughter of William and Catherine. From this Elizabeth (Little) Brown, through her three daughters -- Elizabeth, Sarah and Catherine Stewart Brown -- are descended several families of prominence in the South. The time and place of Catherine's death were not noted. Children:
Elizabeth Little, Nov. 24, 1765 : m. 1784, Morgan Brown
------
James Speed
Sarah Speed : m. William Pigues : had children
