[Nicholas County]  [Carlisle City and Precinct]

HENRY STEWART, farmer, P. O. Carlisle, was born Feb. 23, 1830, to Wm. and
Olivia (Ogden) Stewart; she a daughter of Henry and Lucy (Metcalf) Ogden,
a niece of Gov. Metcalf.  The Stewart and Ogden families were from
Virginia; Henry is the only son, and the only one of the family now living;
three daughters grew to womanhood, but died without heirs in perpetuation.
Mr. Stewart received a common school education; was brought up in a
blacksmith shop, where he learned the trade with his father, at which he
worked about twenty-five years.  At seventeen years of age he enlisted in
Capt. Metcalf's company, under Col. M. V. Thompson, for the Mexican war;
being under age he was removed after a short service.  In the spring of
1848 he assisted in taking a drove of cattle to New York City, walking all
the way, spending 67 days on the road.  In the spring of 1849 he started
for California; was severely wounded in the hip by a half-ounce rifle-ball
accidentally discharged from a gun in the hands of a comrade.  The
wound was received 140 miles from Fort Laramie; he was hauled to that
place in an ox-wagon, where he remained more than two months, when he
returned home.  In the years 1856 and '7 he made two trips to Minnesota,
where he settled land-claims near St. Peter.  Subsequently he returned
home, remaining until October 1861, when he enlisted in J. B. Holliday's
company, under Gen. Williams' and Gen. Morgan's command; was at the
battle of Shiloh, but on account of health he connected himself with Kirby
Smith's division in 1862, and went to Texas and Mexico, where he remained
until the close of the war; when he returned home and was married Sept.
25, 1862, to Mrs. Sarah (McCormick) Robinson, by whom he has two sons and
two daughters, viz: Minnie, Robert, Lindsey (deceased), Berry and Nellie.
He followed smithing until the year 1880, when he engaged in farming.  He
is a member of the I.O.O.F.; a Democrat politically and member of the
Christian Church.  His father is one of the oldest, most prominent,
honorable and highly esteemed citizens of the county.
