My mother was Anita Ligget of Philadelphia.We have some Stewart connections also.Her grandfather was Howard B. Ligget of Philadelphia.His executor was _________ Stewart (I don't recall the first name).His brother was George Stewart Ligget.Their father was Robert Ligget/Liggett (both spellings were used) who came to Philadelphia from Co. Antrim, Ireland in the 1820's. He left a legacy to his neice __________ Stewart (again I would have to look up the first name).Robert Liggett's wife was Jane McCahan.An ancestor of hers, Patrick McCaughan, married Rose Stuart, daughter of Alexander Stuart/Stewart of Kilmahamogue, Co. Antrim, Ireland.I have also seen R.L.'s last name spelled Leggit.
