General Notes: Husband - James A. Stewart


He commenced work in the oil fields when fourteen years old, and spent his life in the business, making his greatest success as a contracting driller. For ten or twelve years he was in partnership with his brother William E. Stewart, their operations being largely in Forest and McKean counties, but though he had shares in many wells he was never particularly successful as a producer, finding his remunerative activities in contracting. He later lived retired at Los Angeles, California.
