Kenneth,
Have You heard of Edward Stewart & wife/Nancy Short who were in early 1830's Pope Co., IL and later Massac Co., IL?
They were married 1813, Roane Co., TN.
I am finding in census records, one daughter Matilda E. Stewart m. #1/William Cavender and #2/Henry Rehlmeyer.
In 1830 & 1840 Cs-Pope Co., it appears that there are
several children.

My cousin and I think that Nancy [Short] Stewart is a possible sister to our 3rd g.grandpa Willis Short of Roane Co., TN.

Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Debby Short-Carden
