William H. Stuart,b.1841,Ill.
I'm looking for info on William Henry STUART, b. 21 Nov 1841, Illinois, d. 10 July 1913, prob. Riparia, Wash. Married Mary Jane STARTAN, b. 13 Aug 1857, Ohio, d. 28 Jan. 1944, Lake Grove, Ore. They had five children: Alice Blanche, b. 19 Apr 1879, Portland, Ore.; Stella, b. 1880-1; Minnie, b. Oct 1882; Henry Io, b. Aug 1885; Laura Valeda, b. 19 Mar 1897. The last five children were likely born in Riparia, Wash.
WHS owned and operated the Stuart Hotel in Riparia, a small town on the Snake River in southeast Washington state. The town is now partially flooded by the Snake (dam!). WHS and MJS likely married in the Midwest and moved to California; they then went north, and ABS was born in Portland. They then went to Riparia (aka Texas Ferry).
Any information appreciated.
