    COLONEL JOHN HOSKINS STONE5
    (1745 - 1804)
    John Hoskins Stone, son of David and Elizabeth (Jenifer) Stone, was born during the year 1745 in Durham Parish, Charles County, Maryland.

    During June and July 1776 he was active in the formation of the Flying Camp to relieve or to drive the British from New York and as a reward for his services he was commissioned a captain of a company composed of men from Charles County. Under the command of Colonel William Smallwood his company participated in the battles of Long Island and White Plains during the autumn of that year.

    The Flying Camp was disbanded in Philadelphia early in December, and Captain Stone returned to his seat at "Poynton Manor" shortly before Christmas. He continued active in the cause and during the early part of 1777 as captain he assisted in the formation of the First Maryland Regiment. At its ultimate organization he was granted the colonelcy and commanded his regiment at the battle of Princeton and later at the battle of Germantown, where he was severely wounded. As a result of his injuries he was forced to resign his commission on August 1, 1779.

    On February 15, 1781, in Anne Arundel County, Colonel Stone secured license to wed Anne Couden.


    Children of John and Anne (Couden) Stone
    1. Couden Stone, died young.
    2. Anne Stone married John Turner.
    3. Elizabeth Stone, born Aug. 30, 1783, married Feb. 8, 1808, Nathaniel
    Pope, son of Gerard and Jenny (Rowe) Causine.
    4. Robert Couden Stone married July 27, 1805, Mary Mann, of Annapolis.

    In 1779 he purchased from William McConchie and Elizabeth his wife, "Watson's Purchase" to which Elizabeth was entitled as dower in the estate of her late husband James Muncaster. On September 4, 1786, he added further to his estate by the purchase from Roger Fowke land in Durham Parish called "Burdett's Rest", beginning at the head of Burdett's Creek and running to Nanjemoy Warehouse. A few days later

    bought another portion of "Burdett's Rest" of 215 acres from Sarah Fowke who described herself as the relict of Captain Gerard Fowke.

    Colonel Stone was a charter member of the Society of the Cincinnati and had the distinction of being elected the third president of the Maryland chapter. He was also one of the early State Governors of Maryland.

    The wife of John Hoskins Stone died on March 4, 1793, at the age of 32 years. A notice of her decease appeared in the Maryland Gazette. He died at Annapolis early in October 1804. The American of October 14, stated, "Died on Friday last General J. H. Stone after a long and painful illness".

    This David Stone was born around 1709 and died March 18, 1779. He was married to one of the Hansons, and then to Elizabeth Jenifer. He had quite a few children by his second marriage, e.g. Thomas Stone, John Hoskins Stone, Michael Jenifer Stone, and so forth. Josiah Stone and Samuel Stone were attributed to the marriage to, presumably, Sarah Hanson.

    Another question, Josiah married Mary Washington Donelson or Donaldson during the American Revolution and lived in Culpeper Co., VA before moving to Kentucky around 1798. Does anyone know anything about her family?
    Specifically was she from Maryland or Virginia?

    Notes:

    Thomas Stone, son of John and Elizabeth Stone, was born in Charles Countyduring 1677, according to a deposition made in 1721. He married first Martha, the daughter of Colonel Philip Hoskins. The latter died in 1714,and besides appointing Thomas Stone as the overseer of his estate, he named as heirs his grandson Thomas Stone and daughter Martha Stone.Oswald Hoskins, son of Colonel Philip Hoskins, died in 1721 and named bywill his brother-in-law Thomas Stone as the overseer of his estate, andat the same time mentioned his sister Martha Stone. The fact that he named only two children in his will and referred to other children makes it difficult to establish an absolute list.

    ----------------------------
    In 1715 he, as Captain Thomas Stone being a member of the Assembly,signed a petition to His Excellency on the death of the Queen and also the petition upon the ascendancy of His Majesty, George I, to the throne.

    Some researchers give Martha Hoskins as the wife of Thomas Stone, but Martha was still unmarried and single 4 Sep 1730 when she received her share of the estate of her sister Mary Hoskins. Jane and Benedicta Hoskins were the only unmarried daughters old enough to be the mother of Thomas Stone's and Robert Hanson's children. Because of the names of the descendants, I have arbitrarily given Jane to Thomas Stone and Benedicta to Robert Hanson.

    Thomas* married Martha Jane* Hoskins about 1703 in Charles Co, Maryland. Martha (daughter of Col Philip* Hoskins, Sr. (immigrant) and Elizabeth (Waughop) Wahob) was born on 1 Mar 1681/82 in Port Tobacco, Charles Co, Maryland; died before 1715. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Hoskins Jane d/o Philip & Elizabeth Hoskins of Portobacco b 1 Mar 1681

    Jane was named after her grandmother, Jane (Lee) Wahob.

    NJL note: I am of the opinion that Thomas Stone married Jane Hoskins. I have several pieces of circumstantial evidence to support my opinion:
    1) Jane Hoskins was the only daughter of Philip Hoskins who was old enough. Both Jane and Benedicta were named in the will of their grandfather, Alexander Wahob, written 1 Dec 1683. This would have been an older Benedicta, as the land records give her birth as 16 Dec 1685.
    2) Her daughter, Mary Stone named a daughter Jenny Stone Hanson.
    3) Her daughter, Ann Stone named a daughter Jane Fowke.
    4) Martha Hoskins acknowledged receiving her share of her 2 brothers', mother's and father's estates in a deed signed Jul 8, 1729, and signed as Martha Hoskins, meaning she would have post-deceased Thomas Stone. Thomas' wife at his death and per his will was Catherine Boughton.

    "Mudd Family of the U.S.", Vol II, p. 1477:
    Oswald Hoskins, b. c. 1699, unm. d. Chas Co, MD. before 28 Oct 1721. Will dated 14 Jan 1720, Chas Co. probated 6 Sep 1731; personal estate to be divided equally among brothers Bennett and Baylord and sisters Mary Ann and Martha; brother Bennett executor of this as well as their mother's Will; overseers brother-in-law Thomas Stone and William Chandler; witnesses: Ignatius Doyce (Doyne?), William Matthews Thompson and Thomas Jameson.
    Martha Hoskins, b. c. 1707, m. Thomas Stone of Chas Co., MD before 26 May 1729.

    It is believed that Philip Hoskins was some close relation to Sir Bennett Hoskins, Bart (Baronet) (1609-1679) of Morehampton and Harewood, Herefordshire, England. Philip Hoskins was first mentioned 2 Sept 1671, when Bennett Hoskins of England gave him a power of attorney to secure Bennett's patent for the 2000 acre "Manor of Friendship". At that date he is referred to as of or near Wicomico River (present St Mary's or Chas. Co.). The second reference is when by deed dated 7 Sept 1671 he, a planter of Chas. Co. and James Hayes, a planter, purchased the 200 acre Owen's Purchase in Port Tobacco Hundred from John Owen.
    Philip Hoskins was a Chas. Co. militia officer in Major Wheeler's Militia 1689-1703 and was referred to as a Colonel in 1707; Chas Co member of the Maryland House of Assembly in 1692, vestryman of Port Tobacco Church, Justice of the Provincial Court, trustee of Cool Springs, and Emissary to the Indians. He directed in his Will that he be buried in Port Tobacco Church. On 12-10-1717 he was appointed residual legatee by the will of Osmond Waple, Gent. of Chas. Co., for the use of Philip's children by wife Ann. By her father's will dated 1683, Eliza Wahob, 1st wife of Philip Hoskins, inherited a 200 acre plantation in Nanjemy Hundred, Chas. Co., MD., and bequests were made to her daughters Benedicta and Jane Hoskins. (Most of this was prepared by: George Ely Russell, Bowie, MD, May 1963. See National Genealogical Society Quarterly, March 1963, pg. 26-31, and Hoskins Families of Seventeenth Century America, by Geroge Ely Russell - Private Pub.)

    There are three references listed re: Martha Hoskins married to Thomas Stone,:
    - Chas. Co. Wills, AB#3, 125
    - Ibid. 127
    - Ibid. 154
    Norma Fiske Lundgren wrote: I am of the opinion that Thomas Stone married Jane Hoskins, the oldest child of Philip Hoskins and Elizabeth Waughop. I have three pieces of circumstantial evidence for it.
    1) She is the only one of Philip Hoskins' daughters (of which I am aware) that was old enough. The land records have her born 1 Mar 1681/82. She was mentioned in the will of her grandfather, Alexander Wahob, written 1st Dec, 1683. She and her sister are the only two Hoskins grand-children mentioned, which supports the data with her as the oldest.
    2) William Hanson and Mary Stone, the daughter of Thomas Stone, named a daughter "Jenny Hoskins Hanson". William Hanson was the son of Robert Hanson and Benedicta Hoskins, the sister of Jane. Benedicta was mentioned in her grandfather's will, too, but that was probably an older sister who did not survive, as the land records give Benedicta's birth as 16 Dec 1685.
    3) Roger Fowke and Anne Stone, the daughter of Thomas Stone, named a daughter "Jane Fowke". Roger Fowke was the son of Gerard Fowke, and Sarah Burdett.
