The Q.L. Stewart Sr. Family of Greensboro held a Family Reunion at the old homeplace, ‘Multi Flora,’ on Tuscaloosa Street, Saturday April 23rd. The homeplace, built in 1856, has been home to the Stewart Family for 81 years, and is now owned by grandsons of QL Sr., Dan and Rick Wilson.
This was a reunion of cousins from the family of Quinn L. Stewart Sr. that included current residents of Greensboro, James L. Stewart and Rick Wilson, as well as former residents, Billy Stewart (Huntsville), Quinn Stewart, II (Tuscaloosa), Marty Wheeler Collins (Washington DC), Dan Wilson (Demopolis), Charles Stewart (Birmingham), and Cathy Wheeler Sharp (Bossier City, La.). Other cousins were William Stewart (Atlanta), Beth Stewart Goodall (Tuscaloosa), and Ron Mason (Kansas City). Also attending were spouses, children of the cousins, and many of the cousins’ grandchildren. All total about 45 family members were in attendance as well as some family friends that felt like family.
One of the cousins stated, “although we live in other cities now, it always feels good coming home to Greensboro. It is a wonderful place to grow up in, and its nice to come home”.
The family members were thankful to Rick and Gary for opening up their home for the cousins to come home to.
