I have seen this LDS apartment before. It was my first good clue. But it did raise some interesting questions, such as, who is #3, , #5, #7, #8, #9, #10 and #12 referring to. My other sources think this is the name of the spouse of a daughter. Can't tell. I haven't been able to link any of the names, though I know the Bagwell bunch pretty well. You indicate to me that Martin & Mastin are one in the same. Is that a contention, or have you seen that. I thought it possible that Mastin was a middle name that he went by. Can't tell. Also, #6 could either be Mastin or Micajah B. Jr. I have seen evidence of Micajah B. Jr., but nothing definitive. I would like to know what you hold on both Georges. I have never found anything that places the earlier George in the family of William Stone, but he seems to fit in somewhere and is listed by some researchers (Karen Flowe among them) as being a brother of Micajah B. Clem Stone interests me more than a little. There is a Clem Stone listed on the Cass Co. TX census of 1910. It might not be the same one, but might be a son of the one you're looking at. One thing that's disappointed me is the dearth of information on Blasingame. With a name like that you'd think he'd be mentioned more often. I know hardly anything about him, other than that he existed. Thanks again for helping me out with this. I know how addictive genealogy can be. It's a puzzle with lots of pieces that just don't quite fit. We're all looking for the right pieces and once in a while we find one. That's always a great day. I can still remember when I found my first piece of evidence. I was looking through an old trunk that my grandfather, Pleasant Hardin Stone (II) left. There was an insurance policy application from 1917. It listed his entire known family and their ages. There were a few minor errors on it, but it was a great thrill to confirm some things. It started me looking. That was months and months ago. Since then I've talked to researchers who've been at it for over 20 years. I guess I've found my hobby! Later cousin, Steve
