Ok, these are the final records of Lewis Stewart during the Civil War that I found on Fold3.  Remember how he was in the hospital sick, but no reason was previously given?  Well, I know everyone has been dying to know, so here we go!

 

The first page is a Muster Roll that tells us that he was in the hospital in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

I hope to find the information for Lewis Stewart’s life outside of the military soon.  He apparently had a lot of children, I just can’t track them all down.  As soon as I can I will be back with more about him!
