Author: Fariss & Smith (1882)

J. C. STEWART of Goodyear's bar was born and raised in Montgomery county, Ohio.
He started for California, via the Isthmus, in January, 1852, arriving at San
Francisco on the first day of April, a troublesome delay of six weeks having
occurred at Panama. Upon his arrival, he started immediately up the Sacramento
to Marysville, from whence he set out on foot up the Yuba, with several
companions, having run short of money. He settled at Goodyear's bar, where he
since resided, having been connected for many years with the saw-mill, in
company with John Schriver. He was married in November, 1870, to Miss Alma
Clark, four children having since been born to them. He is a member of Mountain
Shade Lodge No. 18, F. & A. M., at Downieville.
