I found this info on the WEB listed for STEWART family. Sorry, I do not recall where I saw it....
FAMILY RECORD of JOHN and ANN (STANLEY) STEWART
JOHN STEWART was born circa 1762 in North Carolina. It is not known when he moved to South Carolina but his war record states that “he marched from Darlington to Charleston”. He served in the American Revolution for fourteen months and fought in the Charleston area until late 1782.
*John Stewart first married Ann Stanley (ca. 1780.) Daughter of Sands and Zilpha (Edwards) Stanley. John and Ann produced two known sons, Shadrack and Sands Stewart and two known daughters, Nancy and Zilpha. There are indications of a third son but no information has been found for him. He was not named in John Stewart’s will and is assumed to have died before 1837.

SHADRACK and SARAH STEWART
SHADRACK STEWART’s name first appeared in the Darlington County, S. C. Deed Books on August 15, 1803 when he was between 19 and 23 years old. On the 1810 Darlington, County census he is shown with his wife, Sarah, one daughter, three sons and an unidentified individual. There is no way to determine the identity of this person. The oldest male child is too old to be Shadrack’s son and is believed to be his younger brother, Sands. Also indicated in the household was one free black man and three female slaves.
In 1812, when the United States declared war on England, Shadrack was between 28 and 32 years old. Inquiries were sent to the South Carolina and National Archives but no records were found to indicate that he served in this war.
During the years that Shadrack lived in Darlington County, S. C. He bought and sold numerous tracts of land, and acted as a witness for many relatives and friends. He served as a constable from March, 1808 until March, 1810 and as a Justice of the Peace from February, 1815 until February, 1816. The last Darlington County land sale that has been found for Shadrack was on August 11, 1819. His wife Sarah Stewart signed the deed releasing her right to dower later that year on December 15th.
It is believed that Shadrack Stewart left Darlington County, S. C. with a group of relatives and friends. William Stewart, who acted as a witness when Shadrack sold his land in August, 1819 is believed to be one of this group. Although proof is not available as to the route Shadrack traveled from South Carolina to Mississippi, the following route was taken from family records.
Leaving Darlington, he traveled southeast along Lynches River to the Fall line Road which took him southwest to Augusta, Georgia. From Augusta he continued southwest, crossing the Oconee, Ocomulgee and Flint Rivers until he reached Columbus, Georgia. At Columbus he crossed the Chattahoochee River and traveled due west on the Federal Road (now US 80) to Montgomery, Alabama.
At Montgomery he crossed the Alabama River, took the upper Federal Road (now AL 14) continuing west to Selma, then veered southwest (now Jefferson Davis Hwy) to the area of Coffeeville, Alabama located on the Tombigbee River. Traveling due west on the old St. Stephens Road (now US 84), he crossed into Mississippi, and eventually intersected the Pearl River at Monticello in Lawrence County, Mississippi. Shadrack then traveled down the river until he found the area where he settled in the present day Pearl River County. Stewart’s Bluff, south of Walki Bluff, (near Industrial Community) is the original land settled by Shadrack Stewart. I believe this land to be his burial place.
On the 1820 Hancock County, Mississippi census, completed on December 13, 1820, there are two listings for W. J. Stewart (pp 36, 39.) The information lines are blank for the W. J. Stewart on page 36. It appears the census taker was not able to reach the house and intended to return later. The names listed before and after W. J. Stewart’s name are the same people who owned land near Shadrack’s land. These people are Elisha Lott, Solomon Lott, Burl Perry, Malcolm McIntryee and John McIntryee.
W. J. Stewart on page 39, who is assumed to be the same as the Stewart on page 36, if found with a household that contains one male over fourty-five, five males between sixteen and fourty-five, and one male under ten and one female between sixteen and twenty-six. It is assumed that Shadrack is one of the males in this group.
W. J. Stewart may be Shadrack’s younger brother and the same William Stewart who witnessed Shadrack’s last deed in Darlington County, South Carolina. William nor W. J. Stewart have been found on any census after 1820 nor on any earlier land records and so it seems to he left the area or died between 1820 and 1830.
Shadrack Stewart settled on Stewart’s Bluff when he was between 36 and 46 years old. His land was part of the original Solomon Lott claim. His claim was submitted in 1821 or 1822 when the National Survey was taken and he stated that he had lived on the land since 1820. His claim to this land was registered in the February 18, 1829 *Report to Congress. *(Univ. Of Southern Miss., Hattiesburg, MS. #137799 Report from the Commissioner of the General Land Office with reports from the Register and Receiver of the Land Office for the District of Jackson Court House under the law for the adjustment of Land Claims in the State of Mississippi.)
On April 12, 1849 Shadrack was between 65 and 69 years old when he sold land to his children. This transaction was not recorded until April 18, 1857 when Shadrack appeared before Anthony Seal, (J.P.) to confirm that he had signed the deed in 1849.
It is not known exactly when Shadrack died, only that it was after 1857. Although it has been reported that he is buried in Pine Grove Church Cemetery, no grave maker has been found.
