Slave-owner in Jamaica, apparently resident. Michael Ashcroft shows Stewart [sic] George Dallas (1756-1820) as one of the sons of Dr Robert Dallas, and brother of Robert Charles Dallas (q.v.). Stewart George Dallas according to Ashcroft was in turn the father of: Stuart George Dallas [II] (1792-1844] chief clerk of the customs; Samuel Jackson Dallas (1787-1861); Rev. George Wallen Dallas (1795-1848); and Alexander Dallas (1800-1863).
The entry for Mount Moreland in 1830 appears to show Stuart G. Dallas dying between 1829 and 1831, which is not consistent with either father or son in Ashcroft's article, but fits with Stuart George Dallas III (1800-1831), shown by Ashcroft as the brother of Charles Robert King Dallas (q.v.) and son of Charles Stewart Dallas. There is potential confusion between the three men in some of the estate associations, but LBS has concluded that the cluster of estates associated with Charles Robert King Dallas was probably associated also with his brother Stuart George Dallas III.
