Corder Stone

Other Events and Attributes:

• Census: 1820, White Co, Tennessee

Notes:

Corder Stone was a Baptist (Church of Christ) minister and is reported to have moved to Tenn by 1811. He lived in White County and the Stone Seminary Association was named after him & his son, the Rev Thomas Stone.
=======================

Corder Stone, born abt. 1769, possibly in Surry, North Carolina; died in White County, Tennessee, 1843; married Mary Elizabeth Mason, widow. In volume V of the Christian Messenger (an organ of the Church of Christ), 1831, there is a list of preachers in Tennessee and Alabama, in which we find Corder Stone in Tennessee.

========================

Corder Stone, believed to be the son of John Stone and his first wife, is believed to have been born in about 1769, probably in Granville County, North Carolina, where the
family was residing prior to moving to Surry County, North Carolina in 1770. Corder Stone and his younger brother, Thomas Stone, witnessed a deed in Surry County, North Carolina on 21 April 1792, between their uncle, Daniel Barrow, and Mr. Edward Lovell. 244 Sometime after this, Corder and his brother, Thomas, left North Carolina, and after spending a short period of time in Tennessee, moved further north into Kentucky. Corder was later married on 18 August 1800 to a widowed woman named Mary "Polly" Mason in Lincoln County, Kentucky.
Several years after their marriage, Corder and Mary moved south into Tennessee, where they settled in that portion of the state that was later formed into White County in 1806. Corder and his brother, Thomas Stone, were later found on the 1812 list of taxable property in White County.
Corder, who was a farmer and Minister by trade, is believed to have died in White County, Tennessee sometime during the period 1843-1845.

Notes:

Thomas Stone. We know that John and William were brothers, and we think they may have had a brother, Thomas. However, we have not been able to ascertain the identify of their parents. We use Thomas Stone here as a place-holder.

John Stone, possibly son of Thomas Stone, born in Fauquier County, Virginia, abt. 1725; married --- Corder, born about 1730, presumed to have been a daughter of John Corder. John Stone and his brother William are said to have been among the first settlers in Surry County, North Carolina, possibly in or before 1765.

That John Stone, father of Enoch, married a Corder is a matter of conjecture, apparently based on the fact that he named his third son Corder. Additionally, it is said (but not verified) that John's first son, Enoch, had a son named Thomas Corder. Record of the marriage has not been found, however.

John and his brother, William, are said to have come into Surry (then Rowan) County, North Carolina, from Fauquier County, Virginia. Of this, there seems to be fairly good evidence. A John Stone, a William Stone, and a Thomas Stone had established themselves in Fauquier's Elk Run district by 1748. Butlers, Conways, and Corders also resided in that district. William married Hannah Conway and had, among others, Ezekiel Stone (born 1756) and Conway Stone (born 1761). Among soldiers in the War of the Revolution, we find Ezekiel Stone, who volunteered from Surry County, and Conway Stone, who volunteered from Granville County, North Carolina. Additionally, Conway Stone is named in the will William Stone made in Surry County on 23 March 1819. That William and Thomas were brothers is supported by property records of Fauquier County (see below), but no such evidence has been found in Fauquier to support a brotherly relationship between William and John. For this we rely on the account written by Jane Elizabeth (King) Stone in 1906.

John Stone and brother William were probably Baptists. Says the author of Stones of Surry:

When Baptist Ministers began to visit and preach in Virginia, they gained many ardent supporters and from 1760 through 1780 there was a large organization of Baptists traveling through Virginia; a goodly representation went to Southern Virginia and Western North Carolina. The Stone family caught the fever and named children for the prophets of old: Ezekial, Enoch, Ephraim, etc.
John may have been a preacher. There was in 1786 a John Stone among the Baptist Ministers of the eleven churches in the Yadkin Association. However, we have found no evidence to corroborate that John, father of Enoch, and John, the Baptist Minister, were the same man. Surviving records suggest that there was more than one John Stone in the area [i.e., in the Yadkin district] during the second half of the eighteenth century.

I have just stumbled over the name "Mary Corder" b. ca. 1730-1742, supposed wife of a John Stone b. ca. 1734 in Prince William County, VA. John's parents (brother and wife) are generally noted online to be Thomas Stone of PW Co., VA and Mary Butler of Fauquier Co., VA.

There is a reasonably in-depth profile of this family at http://www.familyhistorypages.com/Stone.htm and the author is very clear that this name "Mary Corder" is unproven, and based on the fact that an unproven child of John Stone was called "Corder Stone". Curiously, they also named another unproven son "Tazewell Stone".

I am curious, though, about this "Mary". Some sources say she was from Surry Co., NC, but it actually appears that the Stone family moved there in the 1760's or '70's. What little supposition I've been able to find online regarding "Mary's" parents leans towards the Fauquier County Corders (who have proven Stone intermarriages).

I quote from the above referenced URL: "That John Stone, father of Enoch, married a Corder is a matter of conjecture, apparently based on the fact that he named his third son Corder. Additionally, it is said (but not verified) that John's first son, Enoch, had a son named Thomas Corder. Record of the marriage has not been found, however."

Additionally, the author of the site supports this connection by continuing a couple of paragraphs later: "A John Stone, a William Stone, and a Thomas Stone had established themselves in Fauquier's Elk Run district by 1748. Butlers, Conways, and Corders also resided in that district."

However, I am wondering -- if there was a "Mary Corder" who married John Stone -- is there any possibility she could have been a daughter of Edward Corder of Greenway Court? The birth date range fits, and Edward Corder lived over the Fauquier County line in Frederick County. Edward's descendants moved to Tazewell Co., VA in the 1770's.

In looking at a map of the Elk Run area, I tend to agree with the conclusions of the extant researchers of the line -- if there was a Corder marriage, it was most likely with the southern Fauquier County Corders, and not the Frederick (ie: Edward) Corders, but I can't absolutely rule out the possibility of a connection. Can anyone help me prove or disprove this?

In Reply to: Re: "Mary Corder" and John Stone Family of southern Fauquier VA and Surry NC by Shawn Corder of 1178

I am writing a book on the Stone family from Fauquier County Virginia.

Here are a few points I can tell you from my research.

John Stone married a Corder. It was recorded in the Account Book of Sheriff John Crump from 1751. The account book has been lost in recent years but I have a record from two genealogists who both recorded the same information and page for the material. One was Henry Wright Newman who wrote The Stones of Poynton Manor and the other is Charles Stone who wrote the Stone's of Surry. I have reviewed Newman's actual notes from the book made in the 1930's and they reveled John Stone married ? Corder. (I suspect the unusual name caused a problem with the transcription. The wives of other Stone sons first and last names are give. He just had a ? Corder for her).
I have uncovered a deed by John Stone from Fauquier dated Sept. of 1775 his wife's name was Milley. She is likely your missing daughter. She was likely born in Prince William County in 1730. John and Milly and their family moved from Fauquier to Laurens SC in 1775. John died there in 1800 and Mildredge died there in abt. 1820. I have a copy of a resulting case dividing the homestead in 1822. John identified her in his will as my wife "Mildredge". All other references say Milley or Milly. I also have a copy of her Dower rights from Fauquier. She could only make her mark.

I also found a will for John Coder and one of the executors is Thomas Stone. This would be John Stone's brother Thomas Stone. Thomas had a daughter Elizabeth and she married a William Dulin. Also Thomas' son, Thomas had a daughter Parazaid (?) Stone who married Bayles Corder. She died in St. Helena Parish Louisiana.

From my research it appears that John and Mildredge married in 1748/49. Mildredge had children who carried the first names of other Corders. Reuben, William, Lewis, Elias. It appears some of her brothers moved to Laurens. I have found Reuben and Elias Corder living in Laurens near the Stones. Mildredge's children were John Jr., Reuben, William, Elias, Lewis, and Nancy.

Some of the Stones have mistakenly placed John Stone in Surry NC which was not the case. The John Stone, who was John's nephew, was married to a Mary. This likely caused the Mary Corder claims.

Hope This Helps

------------------------------

William Stone, born 1723; married Hannah Conway. "On 20 December 1747, William Stone, Planter of Prince William County, Colony of Virginia, leased from John Dagg of Prince William County, shipwright, for the consideration of rents 125 acres of land, being part of a tract of land granted to Joseph Chambers lying between Carter's Run and Piney Mountain, during the natural lives of William Stone and Hannah his wife, paying unto the said John Dagg 450 pounds of tobacco and 5 shillings About 1760 or 1770, William Stone removed with his family to Surry, North Carolina. In 1780 a deed was made to William Stone for 280 acres in Surry Co NC. See deed book in Dobson. The Census of 1790 for the Salisbury district of Surry County shows: the William Stone family (three males over 21, three males under 21, four females over 21). Son, Ezekial, born in Fauquier County, 1756, enlisted for Revolutionary War service in Surry, North Carolina, in 1774; died in Marion Co., TN, at age ninety-nine [letter, Mary A. Saunders (Chattanooga, Tennessee) to Charles H. Stone (Charlotte, North Carolina), 11 June 1937]. Conway Stone, born 1761, served from Granville Co., North Carolina, in the Revolution. Conway married in Monroe Co, Tennessee, and his brother Ezekial certified to his marriage in 1845. The pension of Ezekial was in Marion Co., Tennessee. Children of William and Hannah (Conway) Stone: sons John, William, Ezekiel, Ephriam, and Conway; daughters, Polly, Hannah, Nancy, and Sally [from family records]. Ezekiel Stone's revolutionary war record (letter furnished by Veteran's administration, 28 August 1936): Ezekiel Stone volunteered in Surry County, North Carolina, and served with the North Carolina Troops as follows: from sometime in 1774, three weeks as a private in Captain Richard Good's Company under Major Joseph Winston and went out against the Tories; from sometime in 1776, three months as Orderly Sergeant in Captain William Dodson's Company, Colonel Joseph William's Regiment, went on an expedition against the Cherokees and assisted in destroying a number of their towns; in 1781, two tours, one of two weeks as a private in Captain William Bostic's Company under Major Joseph Winston, and the other of ten weeks as a private in Captain Humphrey's company, Colonel Francis Lock's Regiment. From 1784 to 1795, Ezekiel was in the Union District, South Carolina; in Sevier County North Carolina (now Tennessee) 1795-1816; in Bledsoe, Tennessee, 1816-1819; in Marion, Tennessee, from 1819 to his death in 1855. Ezekiel married Jane Woods about 1779; son William (born 1791) was a Captain in the Creek War and was made Brevet General for gallantry at the Battle of the Horseshoe; served with General Jackson in the Louisiana Campaign, and was elected to Congress in 1836 and 1838.

In Reply to: Re: Ezekiel Stone, Sr. 1755 Fauquier Co.,Va, son of Wm. b. 1723 by Diana Igo of 11001


Diana,

There are several records from Surry in the new book that I am about to publish which prove the relationship to William. One Tax list from Surry has Ezekiel living with William in 1772 along with William Jr. He stays in Surry tax list until 1782, less his absence in the war. As you probably know he moved to Union County SC in 1784.

Ezekiel signed an affidavit for Conway (Conaway) Stones RW Pension record it was proof of a marriage. This allowed Conway?s wife to collect his pension after his death. He states in the affidavit that he was present at Conway?s marriage in Surry. At the time Conway was living with William Sr. In his RW pension Ezekiel states he was born In Fauquier County 1756. The only Stones of Tax Age living in Hamilton parish are Thomas Sr., Thomas Jr., William, and John. I have the Tax list from 1751. I also have a deed for Thomas Jr. and William leasing land next to each other on Carters run 1747. That is now in Fauquier.

I do want to clear up a long standing tradition which is in error. William never married Rhoda Pryor. That William and Rhoda Married in 1772 in Orange County. William and Family are in Surry County at Blewes Creek at the same time. I have records in deed form of William and Hannah selling land in Surry in 1786 and moving to Randolph County. Deeds show Conway moved there with them. William died in about 1788 and Hannah in 1792. Conway sold William and Hannah's land in 1793. John, William?s son, also moved there in 1792.

Also the will of 1819 is William's son will not his. The book Stones of Surry has several other errors.

William did not move to NC in 1770. William received a grant in Granville in Sept 1758 and moved there in April 1760 or earlier. I have the grant record and the survey from 1760 and his grant Feb. 1761/62. His father Thomas Stone had died in Aug of 1756 and William inherited some land. He is added to the Prince William, Later Fauquier Tax list, the same day his father?s inventory was accepted. The land was sold in August of 1758.

Lastly his brother John moved to Laurens SC that is also well documented. To be clear I have all kinds of evidence he was in Fauquier after William moved and stayed there until 1775. His move was directly to what is now Laurens County. I have deed and a Power of Attorney to prove that John Stone in Fauquier and John Stone in Laurens are the same person.

How far back does Ruth have to go I can place William?s father as Thomas Stone of Hamilton Parish birth year as 1699.

Only circumstantial evidence exists placing him with the Stone of Poynton Manor and Gov. William Stone. But it is fairly strong.

Notes:

Married:

for the period 1751-1755.

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.


http://www.familyhistorypages.com/Stone.htm#ES2
--------------------
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]
