Sobre IBD

The Stewart family has been the subject of history, chronicles, dramas, operas, and novels for hundreds of years. Lands Where My Fathers Died meticulously recreates that history from 1230 A.D., when the first family member used STEWART as his surname, to the present. Here are the High Stewards, founders and benefactors of Paisley Abbey, the Cradle of the Stewarts, the royal Stewart kings and queens, accounts of the Stewarts of medieval Glasgow, through the Protestant Revolution until exiled into Ireland. When Hugh Stewart gets on a ship in Belfast and arrives in Pennsylvania in 1735 there are new stories of pioneers, frontiersmen, Indians, farmers and merchants, wars and crimes, births and deaths. Each generation gives equal accounts of both the male progenitors and their wives who became Stewarts by marriage. Throughout this book celebrates family life, the fathers and mothers who are the forebears of today’s generation of Stewarts.
