William G. Stewart (Louisiana)
William Green Stewart (October 25, 1854 – October 31, 1925) was a farmer from a prominent family in his native Webster Parish in northwestern Louisiana, USA. As a former president of the Webster Parish School Board, he was the namesake of William G. Stewart Elementary School, which operated on Middle Landing Street in the parish seat of Minden from 1949 until its demolition in 2011.
==Family background==
Stewart was the third of four children of Douglad (correct spelling) Stewart, Jr. (1826-1884), a native of Sampson County, North Carolina who was reared in Georgia, and the former Mary Elizabeth Culbertson (1830-1860), a native of Coosa County, Alabama. Douglad Stewart farmed in Alabama before relocating in 1849 to Webster Parish. After the death of Mary Elizabeth, Douglad Stewart wed his sister-in-law, Sarah Frances Culbertson (1840-1885), William Stewart's aunt and stepmother. From this second union, came seven children, the half-siblings of William Stewart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Douglad Stewart, Jr. )〕 Stewart's middle name is the same as his maternal grandfather's first name, Green Culbertson (1801-1886), a South Carolina native who after farming in Georgia and Alabama came in 1851 to Claiborne Parish, from which Webster Parish was formed in 1871. He began purchasing land for the Stewart-Culbertson farm. He was the postmaster at the defunct community of Flat Lick near the Pine Grove Community north of Minden. By the time of the 1880 census, Green Culbertson was living in Milam County in east central Texas, where he died six years later at the unincorporated community of Davilla at age of eighty-five.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Green Culbertson )〕 Green Culbertson is interred at Davilla Cemetery.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Green Culbertson )〕One of Green Culbertson's great-grandsons and a great-nephew by marriage of William G. Stewart was Floyd D. Culbertson, Jr., a lawyer who practiced in three states who was the mayor of Minden from 1940 to 1942.〔Election results, ''Webster Review and Signal Tribune'', April 14, 1942, p. 1〕
