Notes for Thomas STONE
There were several Thomas Stones in this area during the same time period and I have not at this time, identified our Thomas Stone with his ancestory.
Many Courthouse records were destroyed and burned during the Civil War. There are tax records and deeds to prove he owned land on the Occoquan river above Cedar Run Broad Run, sixteen miles north east of the Courthouse at Dumfries, Prince William County, Virginia.
Tax Records shows he paid taxes on two-hundred acres 1791 to 1804. In 1814 this was changed to Thomas Stone Estate. In 1818, the entry changed to James Stone and in 1835 to Thomas Stone of Ohio. The will which will follow shows this line of descent.
The Dettingen Parish in Prince William County, required that the members take the responsibility for the orpan or illegitimate children in the church.
There is an Indenture to the Dettingen Parish, made on the 9th of January, 1773. It will be noted that Howson Hooe, who was a witness, was also a witness to the will of Thomas Stone.
“JOHN HULITT, a blind orphan bound until the age of 21 to THOMAS STONE, to be taught the ordinary trade of shoemaking” Geor. Bigby Henry Lee Nimrod Hamrick Howson Hooe
The will mentions SARAH as the wife of THOMAS STONE, and that she is to serve with GEORGE as Executris, but there is nothing mentioned about her when GEORGE is appointed Executor on 5th-September-1791. There is no further information on SARAH. The will of THOMAS STONE was dated “this twenty-second day of October, 1782” and proven in court on the 5th day of September, 1791. [see Will note]
The will of THOMAS STONE was presented in court on the 5th day of September, 1791 and certified on the 6th day of September 1791. GEORGE STONE named Executor. The Appraisal and Inventory was presented in court on the 30th day of December 1791 by GEORGE STONE. The Inventory and Appraisal being made by JOHN KINCHOLE, ZACHARIAH BRADFIELD SEN’R and ROBERT SPITTLE.
The documents of the Estate ordered recorded on the 2nd day of April 1792. 1.
