The Census of 1790 for the Salisbury district of Surry County shows an Enoch Stone family with one male over twenty-one, one female over twenty-one, and three females under twenty-one. If this be our Enoch, and the information supplied below concerning his offspring is correct, the census should have shown one male and one female over twenty-one, and one of each under twenty-one.

Enoch is said to have served in the Revolutionary War. Records of the North Carolina Historical Commission show: "1329 Enoch Stone -- £ 9.0.0" [North Carolina Revolutionary War Accounts, Vol. XI, p. 39, folio 3].

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.
