Notes for Rebecca STONE
They immigrated to Licking County Ohio along with Samuel Stone in about 18081
From the gleanings of the Licking County Histories and the census for the county, I believe these are some of the issue of this family.
One item is below:
Jesse Myers, Lima township.
Post Office, Summit Station.
“Jesse Myers was born in 1814, the fourteenth day of July in Harrison Township. He is the son of Henry Myers and Rebecca Stone, who were married in Virginia and came to Ohio in 1810, settling in Harrison tgownship, where they lived some five years; they then removed to Union township, there being but a few families there at the time. Jesse Myers married Miss Catherine Taggart, the daughter of James and Sarah Taggart in 1846, July 26th.” 17
