• Notes

  Mary Stewart (Stuart) was a brave frontier woman who defended herself in the absence of her husband. She often became the shooter while others loaded rifles for her during indian raids. Her will is recorded at the Dauphin County Courthouse in Harrisburg, Pa and dated April 29, 1785. She and James lived in Farmaugh Township which is now located in Juniata County, Pa. Her husband was appointed to command Fort Pomfret (later Fort Patterson) in 1755 after the defeat of Braddock.
