AGAIN, this time a typo. Yes, Stacy's first wife was Mary WAGNER, not Wanger.

If any of you added this information to your database, please correct it. I don't want my mistake perpetuated. I will also change my entry on findagrave as well. Thank God, I have never put a family tree online. AGAIN, I TRY to be very careful, but I made the most EGREGIOUS of errors ----admittedly one that won't upset any genealogical applecarts too much since there was no issue from the marriage, but I listed my grandfather STACY SHERMAN as having taken for his second wife, MALINDA STOUT. INSTEAD, her name was actually MALINDA SLOUT (in one census listed as Melinda SLOAT) born 1864, died 7 Feb 1895, buried at Rosemont Cemetery in the Stacy Sherman plot. I made the most stupid of errors in trusting a respected tertiary source over and above what my own eyes saw on what was on a primary source document. Based on what I thought I knew, I stupidly believed that the person who had filled out the marriage license had forgotton to cross the first T in Stout. But yesterday I looked at that record again (to recheck the spelling of her first name) and I looked AGAIN and I knew that was no mistake----the L was really an L, written in the same way on two places on the license. I had never been able to find Malinda STOUT on any census and no wonder. Last night I looked for SLOUT and found her and a number of siblings. It seems that for some reason the family broke up after the 1870 census, for in 1880 she is living with an Aunt and an Uncle in Locktown---John and Sarah Chamberlain, in close proximity with her grandmother Deborah Strimple. Thank you Mr. Bill for publishing the corrected death index for in looking at that and then writing to tell you that indeed you were correct with your death date of 1895, I went back to a primary source to check the spelling of her first name and , with fresh eyes, took another look and discovered my mistake. Again, my apologies and a promise to you and myself that I will not be so sloppy again.
