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.

  1. Kelly,

    My husband, Randall, is Dendle's nephew. Dendle's brothers were Ransly and Etrick. Their parents were Archie Stone and Bessie Webster. I have a copy of Bessie's family tree that dates back to the 1600's I believe. You may contact me at stonepdx@msn.com
