14 two A SELF-SHARPENING PLOUGH Alvan Stewart’s Challenge to Slavery there was little in Alvan Stewart’s early years to suggest a lifetime crusade in behalf of the slave or a decade of Liberty party organizing and campaigning. Born near South Granville, New York, in 1790, he grew up in a traditional Protestant farming family doing the chores expected of most young boys in rural America. We know little of the Stewart family’s politics during the Federalist Era of George Washington and John Adams.

Early in the Civil War she urged and then supported John’s efforts to free the slaves belonging to rebels in his Missouri command. Lincoln then removed Frémont, later derisively labeling Jessie a “female politician” following a heated White House meeting in which she had defended her husband’s actions. She opposed what she regarded as the president’s overly lenient stance against slavery and urged her husband to challenge Lincoln for the 1864 Republican presidential nomination. Never an active abolitionist, nor a member of the women’s rights movement, she nonetheless consistently opposed slavery from a stance of containment before the war and abolition during the conflict.
