	The Stewart House is the prairie-style Victorian home of Mary “Minnie” Moore Stewart, one of Kappa Kappa Gamma’s six Founders. The home was built in 1865 by The Honorable James H. Stewart and is located on spacious grounds adjacent to the Monmouth College campus in Monmouth, Illinois. The Kappa Kappa Gamma Constitution was written and the Charter was signed in The Stewart House. The home was owned and occupied by the family’s descendants until 1989 when it was purchased with donations from Kappa Kappa Gamma alumnae. The dining room, living room, parlor, library and sunroom have been restored to the time of the founding of Kappa Kappa Gamma in 1870.
