Home site of 65 Dr. Henry Boardman “Bordie” Stewart and Martha Eugenia Peden

65 Dr. Henry Boardman “Bordie” Stewart was the fifth child and third son of Katharine Carson Hitch and Rev. Clark Berry Stewart, founders of the House of Clark.  He and his wife Martha Eugenia Peden lived here at 2244 Fairview Road and raised a family of nine children, of whom one died in infancy.  Dr. Bordie was the quintessential “country doctor” to the Fountain Inn community for 65 years.  In 1918 Dr. Bordie was elected fourth Chief of the Walter Stewart Clan and served in this capacity until his death in 1947 at age 92.  His 29-year term was the longest of any of the six Stewart descendants to serve as head of the Clan to date.  His wife Eugenia died in 1932 at age 73.  Both are buried at Fairview Presbyterian Church.  The house passed down his family to 659 David Dantzler Stewart (married to Fannie Fair Parkins) and 6591 Frances Fair Stewart (married to Grayson Gallman and now to James Rodgers).  As of very recently, the house is no longer in the Stewart Clan.
