The 1901 and 1911 censuses show the family lived in Govanhill, Glasgow. Stewart attended The Glasgow School of Art from 1913 to 1915 as a day student of drawing and painting and received the Highland Society bursary of £10. The School's records show that he lived in Langside, Glasgow during this time. Stewart served in the First World War, as 2nd Lieutenant in the Royal Field Artillery from May 1917. Stewart is commemorated on the School's First World War Roll of Honour and according to this, Stewart served as Captain in the Royal Field Artillery.
