The Stone Family Line

This family line, my husband's biological maternal line, has given me fits.  James' mother is Marcella Ann Stone, but she left when he was 4 and we have very little information about her.  While Searching Rootsweb earlier this week, I found a family tree for Jacob Stone, Sr. which had Marcella Ann Stone listed in it, along with her father's name, Dendle E. Stone.  I contacted the author of this tree, Bob Walton, and he sent me a pdf file of what he had on that branch of the tree.  Researching this side of the tree has two purposes; one is obviously to complete the tree, but also we hope to finally locate Marcella.  I now have new information to go on, names of her uncles, which may lead to new contacts.  We can only hope.

Sullivan Family Line

The Sullivan surname is my father's line. This Sullivan family line is from the Shullsburg, Wisconsin area. This line has been traced back to Patrick Sullivan, b. March 17, 1792 in Ireland, d. January 21, 1858 in Elk Grove Township, Wisconsin. His wife was Julia Ann Gosse, b. March, 1795 in Switzerland, d. December 29, 1857 in Wisconsin as well. Both are in the Old St. Matthew's Cemetary in Shullsburg, Wisconsin.
