Charles Hutchins Stewart (September 22, 1867 – June 18, 1936) was a four-term mayor of Melbourne, Florida from 1890 to 1891, and 1902 to 1905.

He was born in Joliet, Illinois on September 22, 1867, the son of William F. Stewart (b. Ohio) and Julia Ann Hutchins (b. Maysville, Kentucky).

She was the daughter of Clarence and Annie Hyatt Nash, a wealthy family from Norwalk, Connecticut with a home in Daytona.

[2] Documentation exists from as early as 1898 in the form of letters and invoices, books and newspaper articles[8] reflecting his business was already located at 1002 E New Haven Ave, Melbourne, FL.

[9][10] In 1919, Stewart's Front Street store burned down, along with most of the downtown businesses in "The Great Fire."
