Scope and content
This fonds consists of the correspondence of brothers David (1769-1852) and Robert Bruce Stewart, (?-1846) originally of Perthshire, Scotland, who worked as surveyors and land agents in London, England, to William Buchanan (1800-?). Correspondence between 24 March 1834 and 18 February 1835, deal with the transfer of one-hundred acres of land in Prince Edward Island from the Stewarts to Buchanan. Further correspondence pertaining to this transfer was written between 20 October 1875 and 13 December 1875, by various land agents. The fonds also contains genealogical notes on Isabella Purdie Stewart, wife of Robert and David's brother James, notes taken from tourist information written in 1967 concerning David and Robert Stewart, and extracts from a letter from the Public Archives of Canada written to Catherine St. John in April 1970, regarding the Stewart brothers.
