 The John Franklin"Stuffy" Stewart home on Hernando and St.John's streets. Stuffy was born Jan.31,1894 in Jasper, Florida and died  Dec. 30,1980 in Lake City,Florida. Stuffy was a professional baseball player who played second base from 1916 to 1929 with the Cardinals, Pirates,Brooklyn Robins and Washington Senators. He was called the greatest base stealer in Southern Association history when the Senators brought him up in 1925. In the 70's when Stuffy lived in the home, it was so overgrown by vines that you could not see the house from the street. Photo by John Stokes.
