Hello Mary, et al

Just read the reference to companies with the name Stewart and decided to 
add a degression from the subject of firebricks.  The Stewart company in 
Prince Edward Island is actually Bruce Stewart & Company. (Bruce Stewart was 
my great-uncle) He and his descendants operated a foundry and machine shop 
located on the Charlottetown waterfront from the late 19th century until 
sometime shortly after the Second World War. WHile they may have used 
firebricks in their foundry set up, they would not have manufactured 
firebricks.

I would like to see a picture of the brick.

Thanks,

Bruce
