Historique
John Stewart (ca. 1758-1834), landowner and civil servant, was born in Kintyre, Scotland circa 1758. He married three times; his second wife was Mary Ann James, whom he married in St. John's on 29 May 1817. He died on his Prince Edward Island estate on 22 June 1834.
Stewart moved to Prince Edward Island in 1775 when his father, Peter Stewart, was appointed Chief Justice. Stewart seems to have had some troubles with the Island's governors whose policies he opposed because they were detrimental to his family's fortunes. He was elected to the Prince Edward Island legislature on a number of occasions and served several terms as the Speaker. He was the author of An Account of Prince Edward Island (1806).
Stewart lived in St. John's, Newfoundland between 1804 and 1817, serving as Deputy Paymaster General for the British garrison.
