  Research Notes:

The 1880 Federal Census for Floyd Co., VA, District 30, page 178A, dated June 10, 1880 records Charles (25 - VA/VA/VA) and Eliza P. (23 - VA/VA/VA) Stewart with children Christopher (4) and James C. (1/12 [May]).

The 1900 Federal Census for Locust Grove, Floyd Co., VA, District 20, page 159B, dated June 26, 1910 records Charlie M. (May 1853 - VA/VA/VA) and Eliza P. (June 1854 - VA/VA/VA) Stewart with children Eller G. (Aug 1881), Lillie M. (May 1888), and Nannie O. (Jan 1891). Next door are John and Mahala [Conner] Aldridge and children. They will have a daughter, Piney, who will marry Seaboy Stewart. Note: The date of birth for Eller G. Stewart seems to be in conflict with that of his brother, Calonias; however, the WWI Draft Registration Card for Eller Green Stewart records his date of birth as June 5, 1880 ... thus giving 11 months before the birth of Calonias W. Stewart (according to his WWI Draft Card).
