Notes
- The Will of Lydia Stewart sheds more light on the 332 acre tract. 11 Jan 1771, widow of Samuel Stewart, Surry Co. NC, reveals a possible defect in title to the Swan Creek property. This was the 332 acres Samuel was deeded on 10 August 1762. She states that if a clear title can be obtained, the land should be sold and divided equally among her sons David, Samuel, John and Isaiah. Samuel Stewart had left the other property to the two younger sons. This land was situated on the south side of the Yadkin River on both sides of Swan Creek and adjoined Benjamin Pettit and James Carson. [1].
