(Sometime before 7-11-1691, he had married Elizabeth Alberti, daughter of Jan (John) Alberti & Elizabeth Scudder. By 3-29-1694, Dr. Stewart & Elizabeth had moved to Jamaica, Queens Co., NY and they are recorded as selling a piece of property to John Pollehemus. The parcel of land was at a place called Oldfields Island. By 1697, he and his wife moved to Monmouth Co., New Jersey. On May 24, he bought several tracts of land from Isaac Ong in Shrewsbury & on 10-21-1697, he bought 150 acres of land adjoining the original tracts. These last 150 acres were purchased from Mary & Susanna Barnes of New York City who were the daughters of Thomas Barnes, late of Shrewsbury).

(He made his will 9-2-1704 with James Simpson, Samuel Knowles & Roger Corbett as witnesses. In his Will, he identified his profession as chirurgeon (surgeon). Dr. Stewart died shortly thereafter, probably just after the 1st of January, 1705. His Will was proved in court, in Sussex Co., DE on 1-13-1705. In his Will, he named his children: Samuel, David, John, Elizabeth, William, Hannah and Mary. He made his wife executrix and authorized her to sell any part of his land in Sussex or New Castle Co, or Monmouth Co. in East New Jersey or Nassau Co. on Long Island, "provided she bear the name of Stewart and bring up my children in fear of the Lord and as convenient to learning as to be had in these American parts").

(On 2-4-1705, his wife leased 773 acres of land in Angola Neck to Samuel Davis. This lease was for 7 years & the transaction excepted 100 acres of land which Dr. Stewart, during his lifetime, had agreed to sell to Alexander McCulloch, Tailor, of Somerset Co., Maryland and yet to be laid out).

(Within a year, his widow married Thomas Davock. Thomas got a warrant for 200 acres of land on 3-15-1715, and another warrant for 240 acres on 11-10-1719. This 2nd tract of land was adjoining the lands of the Widow Johnson & William Darter & the chain carriers of the survey crew were Richard Harvey & William Stewart. It is presumed that this William Stewart was the Dr.'s son mentioned in his Will).

(Thomas Davock must have been married before he married the Widow Stewart, because when he made his Will while he was still alive, he mentioned his orphaned children: Robert Bracy, Penelope Richardson & John Pride and stepsons David Stuart and Samuel Stuart. In his Will he also gave 20 acres of land to the church. He died sometime during late Jan. to mid February, 1719. No further record has been found concerning Elizabeth Stewart after the death of her second husband).
