General Notes: Husband - Dr. Zachariah Gammell Stewart, M.D.


He was educated at the academy of his native town, and there read medicine with Dr. Trimble, a noted practitioner of his day. Afterwards he came to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was some time in the hospital service, and then began practicing there. Subsequently, in 1828, he located in Murrysville, Westmoreland County, at the solicitation of Capt. John M. Gilchrist. He continued his practice there until 1858 (a period of thirty years), when he removed to Cannonsburg, Washington County, so as to have better facilities for educating his children. He died from over-exertions in the hospitals at Gettysburg a month after the battle.
He was a ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church for a long period.
