Bill Stewart claimed to be the oldest living former Negro Leaguer at age 103 when this photo appeared on Dec. 7, 2015 on the website of the alabamanewscenter.com. He had been a recent vistor to the Negro Southern League Museum in Birmingham. Stewart played mostly on minor league versions of Negro League teams during the period of 1930-48, but he played for the Memphis Red Sox at some point within that time frame as well. He was an outfielder.

The photo on the right shows him during his playing days with the Algiers Giants of New Orleans, in 1940.
