8. | Thomas* (Hamilton Parish) Stone, Jr (son?) match 7c was born in 1699 in Charles Co, Maryland (possibly) (son of Capt Thomas* Stone, (of Poynton Manor) and Martha Jane* Hoskins); died in Aug 1756 in Hamilton Parish, Prince William Co, Virginia. Other Events and Attributes:
- Will: 23 Aug 1756, Prince William Co, Virginia
- Research Notes: 6 Dec 2011; children
Notes:
In a letter to Charles H. Stone, dated 15 October 1941, Harry Wright Newman (author of Stones of Poynton Manor) wrote:
Captain Thomas Stone, 1677-1727, was seized of land in King George County, Va. I have record of his leasing it, but not selling it. Captain Stone does not name all the children in his will, leaving David the landed estate in Maryland, but referred to other unnamed children. At that time Thomas Stone, Jr., who received no land in Maryland, could have been well-established in Virginia. There is evidence of 200 acres of land in the name of Thomas Stone, and it is quite possible that Captain Thomas Stone executed a deed of gift in King George County to Thomas, and that was the incentive for Thomas settling in Virginia.
Newman is apparently referring here to property in King George County that Captain Thomas inherited from his brother John by will dated 27 January 1702. Newman says that Captain Thomas leased 500 acres of this property to William Thornton, Gent., of King George County, but does not indicate the date of the lease. See Stones of Poynton Manor, p. 16
According to Charles H. Stone, Newman's comment (in his 1941 letter) on relocation of Thomas, Jr., to Virginia is "corroborated in Virginia records," for which Charles H. gives us the following "proof":
In Tyler's Historical Magazine, Vol. VIII, p. 80, we find: Book 1, p. 54 King George County 1721. Thomas Stone of Maryland, Gent., to Captain William Thornton 200 acres.
From here, wrote Charles H., we follow this Thomas Stone into Fauquier County, Va. He cites Fauquier during Proprietorship, p. 100:
Thomas Stone 1724, Sept. 22, 611 acres, corner to Waugh Darnell A 73, whose land was on Indian Cabin Branch, named among settlers of Rappahannock in 1724, which reached Carter's Run.
Note, however: (1) The Thomas who leased land to William Thornton in 1721 was probably Captain Thomas himself, rather than his son. Thomas Jr. could not have been born much before 1700, his mother having been born after 1684, and in all probability he was born a few years after 1700. In any event, he would have been either too young to have executed the transaction with Thornton or, if of age, still too young to have been styled "Gent."
(2) The Thomas Stone who was "among the settlers of Rappahannock in 1724 might well have been the father of John and William Stone of Surry, but we have found no evidence that he was the son of Captain Thomas Stone.
We do have evidence to suggest that he was not the son of Captain Thomas Stone: According to "Warren of Virginia and Maryland," Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, 6:200-203 (1898), Thomas Stone, Jr., of Charles County, son of Captain Thomas Stone (i.e., brother of David Stone, who was father of the Signer), had a son, John, born 1748, who married Mary Warren, daughter of Robert Warren of Charles County. This is the John (son of Thomas, Jr., and grandson of Captain Thomas) who, according to Stones of Surry, is supposed to have been born nearly a quarter century earlier and is supposed to have married a Corder.
Conclusion: The paternity of John and William Stone of Surry is not known.

--------------------
Although it is commonly stated that Thomas Stone, Gentleman, of Charles County, Maryland, and his wife, Jane Hoskins, daughter of Col. Philip Hoskins, had a son named Thomas, I am not aware of any documentation that substantiates this. In one probate document relating to the administration of Col. Philip Hoskins' estate, mention was made of his "three other grandchildren, children of Thomas Stone." In Thomas Stone's will, which was dated 25 May 1727, he also mentions or refers to only three children; David, Mary, and Anne (by naming her son, Gerrard Fowke). And, in the will of Thomas Stone's second wife, Katherine (Boughton) Thomas Stone, which was dated 26 October 1750, the same three children are again mentioned or alluded to; David (by naming his son, David, Jr.), and Thomas Stone's two daughters, now married, Mary Hanson, and Anne Fowke. Since Thomas Stone's second wife, Katherine, is not known to have had any children by her first husband, Benoni Thomas, it definitely appears that Thomas Stone of Charles County only had three children, none of which were named Thomas.

Research Notes:
Circumstances to think John, William, Marble and Thomas are brothers who went to Surry County.
First, it's established that John and William were
brothers. The other two are speculation to be
additional brothers, though doubtful
as to their father, speculation perhaps
a Thomas Stone.
Considerations:
The four are all in Surry County 1771
William and Marble are there in 1772
Dicks Connection:
Littleberry Stone, son of Marble, married a
Ann Dicks(1765).
there is a Ann Dicks, b 1700 Dorchester Maryland
1700, who married James Bounds.
And there was a Rebecca Dicks (c1704) who
married Azariah Cooley. Cooley family
married into the Bounds family. John Stone family
is shown married into Bounds family in 1850
White Co, Tennessee census.
Albermarle, VA Connection:
John Gordon (1754 Albemarle; d 1839 Stokes NC)
daughter Elizabeth m Enoch Stone Jr.
abt 1820 in Surry Co, NC.
Enoch son of Enoch Sr & Nancy Anthony, granson
of John Stone and Mary Corder.
showing a family link from Albermarle.
Thomas Stone is there in Surry County North Carolina with John William and Marble in 1771. A couple of Marble's children died in Lawrence County, Arkansas; and there was a Thomas Stone there in 1831-1833. The speculation that John and William were children of a Thomas Stone.
very weak on Thomas, but is in the process of study.
Thomas* married Nancy (?)* Bronaugh (?) in 1721 in Maryland. Nancy was born about 1705; died before 1748. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
