Married Namecirca 1717 Stewart 
Marriage*circa 1717 Ireland, Principal=Alexander Stewart 
Immigration*circa 1745 Pennsylvania, United States 
Will*28 December 1748 Donegal Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States, Donegal Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, USA, From John of Ireland database: Executors were: Brother John Galbreath [recall that she and John were children of the first James who came in 1718] and my son JAMES KARR
Children: Charles, Robert, and William Stuart, Frances Stuart, Margret
witnesses Janet (x) Galbreth (would have been her sister-in-law) and Elizabeth Kerr.

1) I can only guess that James Karr must have been son-in-law (perhaps spouse to Margret). Also James Karr was the accountant for the estate of Jannet, widow of John (he died in 1753). I have a feeling that this Janet was thus a Karr/Kerr. Was he spouse of Elizabeth Kerr?
2) There seems to be v. little consistancy in writing wills in the 1700s. I have seen many that neglected to mention daughters unless they were minors. I would have thought for Rebecca's minors there would have been some instructions. Perhaps there are orphan court proceedings. At any rate if James Karr is the son or son-in-law he was born by 1726 (and ditto for witness Elizabeth Kerr) I suspect Rebecca would not have born after 1708. I would still put it around 1702, so she could have married Alexander before 1718 and her family's departure.
I ran across the will of Rebekah Galbraith Steuart (SIC) as it was in the Galbraith folder at the Lancaster Historical Society. Kerr/Karr and Stewart/Stuart folders should be checked
