Ann Elizabeth Hyatt Stewart

Ann Elizabeth Hyatt Stewart

Ann Elizabeth Hyatt was born about September, 1838, in Waverly, NY, the younger of two children of John F. Hyatt Jr. (1761-1853), a Revolutionary War veteran, and his second wife Rachel Rolfe (1804-1879). She lived with her parents and later her widowed mother in Waverly, probably until she was married.

Ann Hyatt married Adam Stewart about 1870.

Adam Stewart was born in 1818 in New York, possibly in Danby, Tioga county, where his family lived in 1820. He was the second of seven children of Salmon Stewart (1788-1869) and Elizabeth Youngs (1790-1851). The Stewarts settled in Barton (Waverly?) between 1840 and 1850. Ann Hyatt was Stewart's second wife. He had two daughters, Ida Alice (1858-1860) and Elizabeth (1863-1944) with his first wife Catherine (1821-1869).

Ann and Adam lived in Waverly – Adam until he died in 1899, and Ann until about 1910.

Ann was a member (possibly a charter member) of the Tioga Point chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, which was founded in 1900.

They had two children together:

• Isabella C. Stewart (1871-1956) married 1st Urial G. Gee (1867-1910); married 2nd Albert Pliny Haner (1871-1927); died in Barton; buried with her first husband in Manchester, NY

• John Paulding Stewart St. (1874-1966) married 1st Sarah Celestia Arnold (1876-1945); 2nd Lelia C. Chaapel (1863-1952); died in Sayre; buried in Emory Chapel Cemetery

Here's the text from the second page of the genealogical document:

Adam Stewart died on Feb. 16, 1899, in Waverly. He was buried in Emory Chapel Cemetery in the town of Barton.

Ann lived with her daughter Isabella in Manchester, Ontario county, NY, in 1910 and 1915. She died in East Rochester, NY, on Nov. 24, 1921. She was buried in Emory Chapel Cemetery with her husband.

The D. A. R. chapters of Sayre (Carantouan) and Athens (Tioga Point) erected a memorial headstone on her grave. It reads:

Ann E. Stewart 1838-1921 Erected by Tioga Point & Carantouan [sic: Carantouan] Chapts DAR
