General Notes: Husband - Dr. Alexander Stewart


He was educated at Mount St. Mary's College, and at the age of nineteen began the study of medicine at Emmitsburg, Maryland. He was graduated M. D. at Washington Medical College, Baltimore, in 1831. Soon after receiving his degree he came to Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, where he was in active practice for nearly half a century. He was a skillful physician and enjoyed an extensive practice. To his medical skill he added an agreeable personality and was always held in affectionate professional and personal regard by his neighbors in Shippensburg and the surrounding country. In many cases he served the same family through successive generations. Late in life he relinquished all business cares except the presidency of the First National Bank of Shippensburg, of which he was the first president.

It was only when impaired vision interfered with the active discharge of his professional duties that he ceased from his labors.
