Yonge v. Mellichamp

Alexander Stewart (1691-1763), came to Charleston about 1715, apparently from Scotland. A member of St. Andrew’s Society in 1730, and of the Charleston Library Society in 1750, he served for more than thirty years as deputy register and as register in chancery; he was also coroner of Berkeley County and a magistrate.
