Research Notes:
John's info from family:
"William H. Stone (b. May 1845 in Ohio; d. in Adair Co., MO of liver cancer; father was from PA) married Charlotte Scoffield Smith (b. Nov 1834/39 in Indiana; d. Feb 11 1929; buried in Newkirk, OK; her father was "Welcome" Scoffield from Ohio. "Welcome" lived in Green Castle, MO in 1900)
However it has been proven that Charlotte was an Andrews by the marriage record of her son Andrew which states his mother was "Charlotte Andrews." and I have been unable to find a Welcome Scofield b c 1810; but did find a Welcome Scofield b 1867 whose family line did live near the Stones.
So, it's likely there is a relationship of some kind between the families. In 1900 Adair Co, Missouri Census is residence 21/22 William H Stone, Charlotte (Andrews), dau, Sallie & son-in-law Seth Dain.
residence 22/23, M.R. Stone and Nettie
residence 23/24, G.W. Stone and Mary and kids
residence 24/24 Johnson family (William S age 33; wife Jennie, sons Glenn and Richard, and mother Mary, b Aug 1832 Illinois, parents b Missouri (unknown if Johnson family any relation to the Stone family)
residence 25/26 Abel Scofield, b Apr 1833, Virginia (age 67) widower, father New York, mother Virginia. Farmer, head of household - living alone
Also, Abel has a grandson thru his son Matthew named Welcome Scofield, born in 1867.
Research shows that Abel Scofield is son of Joshua b c 1800 NY and Ada Warren. Abel's brother Matthew Bell Scofield is shown in 1870 in Lima, Adams Co, IL, living next door to the Painters. Mrs. Painter is Susan Lutman Stone, widow of a Charles H. Stone b 1830 PA. One of her children was named Liza Bell Stone. Bell name is of interest.
Abel's father Joshua is a contemporary of Welcome Scofield and could be brothers but have found nothing to prove or disprove it.
Charles H. Stone (1830 PA) has not been identified either except this coincidence in the census records and speculating that he could be bro to John Z. Stone (b 1824 PA).
Perhaps the common link is the Bell family. Much more research needs to be done.
