  • Marriage*: 23 May 1861; Floyd Co., Georgia; Principal=Eliza J. Hutchings2
  • Biography*: 1922; AN OLD TIMER – Virgil A. Stewart, son of the late Samuel Stewart, Rome's first marshal before the Civil War, and grandfather of our own Capt. Henry J. Stewart, favored us with a call at the office yesterday afternoon that was greatly appreciated. Mr. Stewart was born Jan. 24, 1836, at Rome, consequently is 85 years of age and remembers more than most people around here. He is one of the two surviving members of the Rome Light Guards who went out to fight for the Confederacy in April, 1861, the other being B. James Franks, of Armuchee. Mr. Franks was a recruit, so that leaves “Virge” as the last surviving charter member.
         He is a nephew of his uncle namesake, the late Virgil A. Stewart, of Lawrenceville, who under the guise of an “outlaw” joined the band of John A. Murrell and captured that notorious character at the Mississippi River in Arkansas. Murrell’s gang operated through the South, as far as Florida, before the removal of the Indians to the west, and the Indians got the credit for many of their villainies. One of their hang-outs in Georgia was at Jug Tavern, now Winder, county seat of Bartow County. Murrell’s capture resulted in a trial in Tennessee which put him in the penitentiary for life at Nashville, and he died there. The original Virgil A. Stewart went to Mississippi before the Civil War and warned the people of a contemplated insurrection among the negroes.
         When asked how old he was, Rome’s Virgil A. Stewart replied that he was “thirteen.” Somebody in the office remarked that he could pass for 60 easily enough, which seemed to please him greatly. He said he did it living out in the open, “catching water moccasins, eels and fish” from the rivers of Rome.
         “I see by the paper,” remarked Mr. Stewart, “that Judge George Harris, of the Flat Woods, thinks he can walk anybody down in a day that ain’t less than 70. You can just tell him for me that if he talks much like that I’ll take him up the river banks and back again in a way he won’t forget!”
         Mr. Stewart is authority for the following statements:
         He was at one time, at 2 years of age, the only boy in Rome: Arthur Hood started the first newspaper, and Howard Jack and a Mr. Walker followed him: William Smith owned the first ferry, which served DeSoto, the peninsula and Hillsboro (South Rome) at the head of the Coosa, and hired William H. Adkins, Sr., to build him the first steamboat, and Matt and Overton Hitchcock to erect the first bridge, a covered affair, where the Fifth Avenue bridge now stands.
         Smith owned the land where the Alfred Shorter (D. B. Hamilton) home is on the Alabama Road, and kept a crib of corn open to the poor. He built on the hill across the Alabama road from the spring nearby. John Smith, a brother, went to California during the gold epidemic and died there. Chas. Smith, another brother, moved to Cass (Bartow) county and died there.
         Mr. Stewart says deer used to run wild through the woods around Rome in the thirties, and that Jim Ragan shot one near the Etowah River and the foot of Third Avenue, about the location of the John W. Maddox place, in front of the old J. A. Gammon home spot.
         Mrs. Robert Battey used to have a pet deer given her by her father, William Smith, and she had seen deer jump the fences while the dogs chased them. Her deer became enraged on one occasion, attacked a woman and had to be shot.3
