- !NOTES:Tombstone inscription:
"Rosanna Johnston Stroud Stewart Jackson Died 1877 Charter Member of Head of Tenn Baptist Church"
*Tombstone appears to be old, but certainly not from 1877. My guess is it was probably placed in mid 1900's.
!NOTES:I have not determined who her 2nd husband, Mr. Stewart was. Since I'm also a Stewart descendant, I'm very interested in identifying him.
A clue may be found in Rosannah's 3rd husband Ralph Jackson of Murray Co., GA. He was a close neighbor of Barnabas (Barny) Stewart in 1840 and 1850. Barney was of the same general age as Rosannah's husband, so if, perhaps Barny was her brother in law, it might explain why and how she met Ralph Jackson several counties away from where she had been living in Rabun Co., GA.
Barney seems to have been from Morgan Co., TN (1830), then to Murray Co., GA 1840 and 1850. He died in the 1850's in Murray, leaving widow Susan (1860).
