Notes:

He registered for the military in 1863 in Illinois, but apparently did not serve. In 1870 he was a laborer, then 1880 he was a railroad carpenter. After he moved back to Tennessee, he did some farming.

Letters both written by and quoted from some of the Stone family give a few more clues in to Oliver's life. They mention a daughter Cate who does not show up in the records and she is only known of because Cicero Stone mentioned in a letter in 1932 those who had died since a previous letter he had written in 1877, and listed Cate.
She is not listed in her father's household in 1870 or 1880 census. Was she first born or last born? If first born, maybe married young? But more likely born last. Elizabeth was dead by 1880. Could she have died in childbirth? She was getting at a critical age for childbearing. Oliver, widowed by 1880 census, still living in Illinois. Nellie and John and Ann are there - no Cate. Ann marries soon after, September of that same year.
In the letter in 1882, Cicero mentions that Moyers is living by him farming. It is also told that Nellie died of consumption at Uncle Anderson's home in January of 1882, that John, her brother, had come to be with her while she was sick, and she died the day after he left.
So, it's very clear that Oliver moved back to Tennessee with Nelly and apparently Cate after Elizabeth died, probably shortly after the census was taken or in the following year. His other children were establishing their own lives. John and Ann stayed in Illinois. He seemed to have no other family in Illinois and it's not hard to imagine the need of the comfort of his wife's family and their support to raise Cate was his motivation to move back to Tennessee.
Back to Cate, she must have grown up there in a close family relationship with Cicero for him to remember her specifically. He made a collective comment about several cousins had died, but then called her by name.
Then we learn from the letters that Enoch Herschel Stone named his son after him, Oliver Myers Stone, as it's said, ""our Uncle Moyers was named after Nelly's father." Oliver Stone was born in 1858. Oliver Moyers was Herschel's brother-in-law, married to his sister Elizabeth C. in about 1853.
In 1860, the families were all living in their own community in Putnam County (probably the same land, just changing county borders.) You'll see in residence enumerated as No. 773 Enoch Herschel Stone with his family and adjacent to him in Residence 774 is his widowed mother, Elizabeth (William) Stone with a couple of her adult children, Elihu Patton and Fanny. Then Oliver Hopkins Moyers and Elizabeth C are nearby in the residence numbered 781 where my great grandfather, shown as Christopher H, in the census is only 6 years old. Somehow that name evolved into Harold Charles.
Much gratitude to the Stone family for their letters and to Floyd Weatherbee who posted them to the Internet. They brought a lot of life to my great-great grandparents, Oliver and Elizabeth Stone Moyer.

(these letters are in a pdf file attached to Oliver and all the many other names of three or more generations mentioned in the letters.)

Letter written in 1963 by Enoch, son of Cicero, to cousin Alene, wherein he quoted from this letter, written by Enoch Herschel to his brother Elihu.

(dated Apr 9, 1882 from White Co, Tenn)
Quote: "Cicero [Cicero Constantine Stone] still lives at Bloomington and Vick [Lenora Vick Stone] lives with him. Newton [Isaac Newton Stone] is there going to school. Herschel [Elihu Herschel Stone] is still living at his Uncle Geo. Anderson's [George W. Anderson, hus of Phama]. Aut is now at home. Moyers lives close to me and farming. Cleopatrae & Omega, Euclid & Mary
are all at home growing finely. Minerva has only had
two children. Mary is the youngest will be 7 years
old the last day of July."

This old letter was headed White Co. Tenn. and dated
April 9, 1882.

Now quoting a little further from the same old letter,
Quote: "I suppose Phama, wrote you about the death
of Nelly Moyers, she died last January at her Uncle
Geo. Anderson's with consumption. John her brother
came to see her while she was sick, and I think she
died the next day after he left."
(see attached letter)


Other-Begin:
Letter written by Enoch Garnet Stone, son of Cicero, in 1963 to his cousin, Alene. In it he quotes from a letter that had been dated 9 Apr 1882, written by Enoch Herschel, his grandfather, to Enoch Herschel's brother Elihu.

Quoted from Enoch Herschel's letter of 1882, "Moyers [Oliver Hopkins Moyers, husb of Elizabeth C. Stone (d bef 1880)] lives close to me and farming."

Then Enoch Garnet continues, "Now quoting a little further from the same old letter,
Quote: "I suppose Phama [Phama Lovina Stone], wrote you about the death of Nelly Moyers, she died last January at her Uncle Geo. Anderson's with consumption. John her brother
came to see her while she was sick, and I think she died the next day after he left."

I quote the above to show you that Uncle Moyers was named for Nelly's father, who I am quite sure married Elizabeth, who was grandfather's sister, i.e., I know he had a sister, Elizabeth, and am quite sure she married Mr. Moyers. He is the one who lived in Nashville,and Ridley Stone was my brother who lived there for many years until he moved to California."

I quote the above to show you that Uncle Moyers was named for Nelly's father, who I am quite sure married Elizabeth, who was grandfather's sister, i.e., I know he had a sister, Elizabeth, and am quite sure she married Mr. Moyers. He is the one who lived in Nashville.
(see attached)

named for Nelly's father (Oliver);
that would be Oliver M Stone, son of Enoch Herschel Stone.
married Elizabeth "grandfather's sister"

Oliver* married Elizabeth* C. Stone about 1853 in Tennessee. Elizabeth* (daughter of Rev Thomas* Stone, (DNA) match 7A and Elizabeth* Williams, (dau?) (DNA)) was born in 1833 in Jackson Co, Tennessee; died between 1877 and 1880 in Illinois. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Does anyone know who Mathias Moyer is?
I found several land transactions involving him in "Land Deeds of Jefferson County, Tennessee 1792-1814." I'm researching the line including Christopher Moyers & Sarah McGowan who were married there 1 Feb 1822. Neither their children nor Chtopher's siblings show a Mathias. Am I missing something? Also, what do the double dates signify?

According to these records:

Surveyed 15 Apr 1807. Wit: Jacob Crider; Joseph McGuire. /s/ A. Henderson; William Moore; Mary Gass; A. Gass; Henry Collins. March Session 1813.

The name Gass (John) showed up witnessing the will of Alexander Breckenridge in 1813. But that was in Bourbon Co, KY. His g-granddaughter m Harold Charles Moyer, the grandson of Christopher Moyers & Sarah McGowen.
There was a Catherine McGuire who m Andrew Blackburn whose sister Mary married James Moyers, father of Christopher Moyers.
With these common names, it seems that Mathias belongs to the same family of Moyers, but how???

___________________________
Thomas Stone, born about 1767, possibly in Surry, North Carolina, married Sarah Corder. Is reported to have "gone west" (probably to Tennessee) about 1812. Thomas and Corder Stone witnessed indentures for Davis Nores and Robert B. Purkins (Perkins) in White County, Tennessee, 13 August 1816 (Deed Book F, page 8) and for John Trap and John Lollar, 18 March 1818 (Deed Book F, page 185).

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

=============================
Thomas Stone.
Thomas Stone, believed to be the son of John Stone and his first wife, was calculated to have been born in 1771 in Surry County, North Carolina. 246 Thomas was apparently
married twice during his life. He married first to a woman named Sarah "Sally" Corder.

Sarah was also a native of North Carolina. Although no record of their marriage has been found, it is believed to have taken place in North Carolina prior to their move
to Kentucky.

On 21 April 1792, Thomas Stone and his older brother, Corder Stone, witnessed a deed in Surry County, North Carolina between their uncle, Daniel Barrow, and Mr. Edward Lovell. 244 Sometime after this, Thomas and Sarah, along with his brother, Corder Stone, left North Carolina, and after spending a short period of time in Tennessee, moved further north into Kentucky. Although Thomas and Sarah remained
in Kentucky for several years, they eventually moved south into Tennessee, where they settled in White County. Thomas Stone acquired 684 acres of land in White County, Tennessee on 10 May 1808, which was situated on Cane Creek, a branch of Caney Fork of the Cumberland River. 251 Thomas and his brother, Corder Stone, were later found on the 1812 list of taxable property in White County. 245 Thomas Stone?s first
wife, Sarah Corder, is believed to have died in White County, Tennessee.

After his first wife passed away, Thomas married for a second time in about 1824 in Tennessee to a woman named Elizabeth Williams. 249,250 Elizabeth, who was a native of South Carolina, was calculated to have been born there in 1793. 246 According to the 1830 federal census of Tennessee, shortly after their marriage Thomas and Elizabeth settled on a farm in Jackson County. 252 Thomas, who was a farmer and Minister by trade, subsequently died in Jackson County, Tennessee.

NOTE: Unfortunately, several of the children enumerated on the pre-1850 censuses of Jackson County, Tennessee did not match up well from census to census. As a consequence, additional research is needed to identify all of Thomas Stone's children from his first marriage.

Those children listed below, however, are either known, or are considered very likely to be children of Thomas Stone and his first wife, Sarah Corder. The exact order of birth
of some of the below listed children is not known, however. Although most genealogies indicate that Nancy was the eldest child of Thomas Stone and Sarah Corder, this appears to be contradicted by indenture between Ireby W. Stone and his father, Thomas Stone, which was entered into on 5 March 1814. Because of the date and contents of this indenture, it would appear that Ireby may have been born as early as 1793, and therefore the eldest child.

Other-Begin:
mentioned in letter from Enoch to his cousin Alene, stating, " It as I have it is that Grand Pa's [Enoch Herschel Stone] father was "Tom" Stone [Thomas Stone] and that he married a Williams (Elizabeth Williams--FWW). I just cannot remember the name of Tom's father and mother, which I think I used
to know. Tradition has it that they descended from
W.M. Stone (William Stone--FWW) 1603-1660 Proprietary Governor of Maryland appointed by Lord Baltimore. As to its being a fact you will know just as well as I."

Thomas* married Elizabeth* Williams, (dau?) (DNA) about 1824. Elizabeth* (daughter of William Williams and Judith "Judy"* Baker (Harold?), (?)) was born in 1793 in Virginia or South Carolina; died after 1860 in Putnam Co, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Note: Since Elizabeth was around 31 or 32 years old at the time she and Thomas married, it could be she had a previous marrige and Williams not be her maiden name. However, there were some Williams living nearby that appear to be her brothers. There was one mention that her mother was a Judy Harold, but only one and it was not sourced. ~ss

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.

Notes:

Posted by: Laura Henderson (ID *****6034) Date: August 30, 2006 at 16:04:53 of 1178

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
