Robert, a Presbyterian minister and professor of languages at Transylvania University, married Hannah Todd, the aunt of Mary Todd Lincoln and Elizabeth Edwards.

He fought in the Black Hawk War as a major in the battalion in which Abraham Lincoln had commanded a company. He served in the House of Representative from 1832-1836 serving with Lincoln. When Lincoln passed the bar, he practiced with Stuart until 1841. Stuart was elected to Congress, in 1838 defeating Stephen A. Douglas. After serving two terms, he went back into practice with Benjamin Edwards, but was then elected to the U.S. Senate in 1848, serving one term from 1848-1852. After being elected to the U.S. House in 1862 and serving one term, he returned to the practice of law with Edwards. In 1858, his son-in-law, Christopher C. Brown joined the firm. John T. Stuart also served as president of the Springfield City Railway Company, president of the Springfield Watch Company, president of the Betty Stuart Board of Trustees and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the National Lincoln Monument Association.  Stuart married Mary Virginia Nash of Jacksonville, Illinois on October 25, 1837. They had seven children: Elizabeth (Bettie), John Todd, Virginia, Frank, Robert, Hannah and Edwards. Bettie married Christopher C. Brown, a lawyer. After John T. Stuart’s death on November 28, 1885, Brown continued the law firm, eventually bringing his son, Stuart, into the practice.

Camp Long July 7th /61. To His Excellency Gov Yates Dear Sir Your letter of the 26th came duly to hand. I have delayed answering it until now for the reason that you was not in Springfield. the Newspaper articles that appeared in the Democrat of this City (To which you refer) two weeks ago today, I am in no wise responsible for. I had not seen the article until after the receipt of your letter. I have not at any time held any conversation with Mr. Wentworth by which he could derive the basis for any article in the least disrespectful to you. On the receipt of your letter I took it with the Paper containing the article to my Friends for advice, particularly to Mr C. B. Farwell and Mr M. Castle (who happened to be in the City at the time) and they at once <hr /> pronounced it to be an underhanded blow to prevent my receiving the appointment of Major, because I have always been Wentworths political opponent and friendly to the other wing of the Republican party. The reason why I did not go to Mr Wentworth for a correction of the article was by the advice of my Friends not to do so for if I did the matter would be made worse. Mess Farwell and Castle promised me that they would take it upon themselves to explain the whole matter to you. Mr F expected to meet you in Washington and Mr Castle will also explain the whole matter to you on your return to Springfield. My friends on my return from Springfield were very anxious to know the result of my visit, My reply was the same to all and that I felt perfectly sure of the appointment of Major of the 19th Regiment and repeated to them your last words to me that also convinced them that my appointment was sure. I hope Sir that the explanation <hr /> of Mess Farwell and Castle (To whom I refer you) of this unfortunate matter and this letter will be satisfactory to you and also convincing proof that I was not the cause of the offensive article.

[pencil] 46 Albion Edwards Co Illinois July 8th 1861. His Excellency Richard Yates Governor of Illinois, Dear Sir, I Received your excellent Letter on the Subject of your appointment of Mr Browning to be our U. S. Senator from Illinois, And I heartily agree with every word you say, and every view you take respecting your performance of that important Executive Duty. You have done just right. and every intelligent man in the State, both Republicans & Democrats, must in their hearts & consciences (if they have any) feel & think as I do. Your views on that appt, are undeniably true. And I cheerfully congratulate yourself, and the whole State of Illinois. yes, and Our Lincoln Administration also, on your happy appointment of Mr. Browning, for he is in all respects the most fitting, and most reliable man you could have Selected at this time. I have shown your Letter on that subject to several leading & trusty Republicans in this part of the State, and they all concur with one in the correctness of all you have therein stated. I have also to acknowledge the receipt of your very kind and friendly Letter, respecting my Sons appointment to the Office of U. S. Consul to Queensland, a newly created District in the English Colony of Australia And I thank you heartily for your kindness & goodwill in having forwarded my Letter to you, containing a copy of my Letter to the President, with the certificates & recommendations in my Sons behalf, to the care of Mr Browning. And If this reaches you while in Washington, allow me to ask the <hr /> further personal favour of your accompanying Senator Browning to present the said Petition of my Son to the President, requesting the favour of that appointment, together with the accompanying certificates and recommendations signed by all the leading Citizens of the United States now residing at Kiandra, in New South Wales, Australia. And surely I think I am not presuming too much, when I entertain & indulge the hope that you four prominent Republican Citizens of Illinois, The President, yourself, & Senators Trumbull, & Browning, unitedly possess and enjoy sufficient power, and plenty of goodwill towards myself, to fix up, and agree to give that appointment to my Son, now 39 years old, who was born & raised in Edwards County, Illinois. As the Yankee said " I know you four can do it, if you are all willing." I thought the President & Senator Trumbull were amply powerful, and both of them sufficiently filled with plenty of Goodwill towards myself to have given my Son that small appointment at once, and from these feelings and expectations, on my part, I forwarded the Original Papers belonging to that case, to the Care and guardianship of Senator Trumbull, but it would seem I have been slightly mistaken, for I have not yet heard that either of them have done anything of the kind as to secure that Office for my Son, in that farthest off, & most distant Land, And as I well know that One of those two Gentlemen had full power to make that appointment, & its not being done, makes me feel apprehensive that either the President or Mr Trumbull, or both feel slightly lacking in their goodwill towards myself, and my anxious requests in behalf of my Son.
