History
The county is named after "Duncan Stewart, Tennessee state legislator and lieutenant governor of Mississippi Territory."

Parent County
1803--Stewart County was established 1 November 1803 from Montgomery County. County Court first met on 12 March 1804. Early records may be found under Montgomery County. County seat: Dover

From 1788 to 1796 people living in what is now part of Stewart County were in extinct Tennessee County. Their records for that period are now found in Robertson County, Tennessee.

Record Loss
1862--Fire, Federal Troops damaged records (mostly Chancery Court)


 * Lost censuses: 1810, 1820, 1890
 * Marriages are lacking 1804 to 1837; white marriages from 1876 to 1881 are lost.
 * Lost probate records: 1812, 1817-1824
 * Lost Chancery Court records: before 1865

Although these are not burned records, applying strategies used for burned counties may aid in compensating for their loss. For further information on researching in burned counties, see the following:


 * Arlene Eakle, When the Records are Gone in Tennessee Genealogy Blog
 * Burned Counties Research in FamilySearch Wiki
 * Michael John Neill, Burned Counties in Family History Circle

Cemeteries
Tennessee cemetery records often identify birth, death, relationship, and military information, as well as religious affiliation. A local volunteer through Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness offers to take photographs of headstones found in Stewart County cemeteries.

Stewart County cemetery resources include:


 * Stewart County Historical Society, Cemetery Records of Stewart County, Tennessee, 1983. Out of print.  Copies available at area libraries.
 * Partial extract of cemeteries is available on the TNGenWeb site and the Find A Grave site.

Census
1820, 1830, 1840, 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910, 1920, and 1930 federal population censuses of Stewart County are available online. For tips on accessing census records online, see Tennessee Census. If you're having trouble finding your ancestors in online indexes, try checking printed indexes. Created by local experts familiar with the area's families, these indexes are often transcribed more accurately than nationwide online indexes.
