6. George Eugene Steward was born March 29, 1887. He married Olie Pryor. I'm not sure if they had any children together or not. I had a hard time finding any information on him. I don't even know when he passed away.
Eugene passed away on September 11, 1922 from Pneumonia related to having heart disease. He was 80 years old.
Tabitha passed away on July 19, 1931. She was 86 years old.
William Madison Steward (David & Eliza's son) was born September 6, 1843. On December 9, 1861, when he was 18 years old, he enlisted in the military. He was part of the Ohio 62nd Infantry, Company E. He fought in the civil war, and i'm pretty sure he fought in Hilton Head, South Carolina.
Here's what Wikipedia has to say about the Civil War and Hilton Head:
Why do i think he fought there? Because on his military record it says he was "Mustered out on 15 March 1863 at Hilton Head, South Carolina"
For those of you wondering "mustered out" means discharged from service.
Now what happened to William after the war is a bit iffy. All i know is he passed away on September 1, 1864 at 20 years old. Here is his page on the Find A Grave website.
