It's hard to find anyone who knows much about that particular line of Stones. I am a descendent of Micajah B.'s brother William H. Until recently I didn't have a clue of Micajah's family lines, then made a small breakthrough. I would like to know whatever you have on the line. I'm trying to follow all the direct family links from William on down. If I ever figure out William's father William, then I'll have a lot more chasing to do. Right now I'm just trying to figure out all the "first family & their descendents. Micajah B. has interested me for a while. I have postulated his middle name as Banister, but never knew. Banister is the name of my g.g.grandfather, a son of William H. I thought that name had to be from somewhere, but couldn't make a link with any of the Banister families. So, I deduce the link as being upstream. If Banister IS his middle name, I'd love to know that. The George I'm asking about is not the son of Micajah, but possibly a son of William - and a brother of Micajah. I assume the George Clement you reference is Micajah's son. Yes??? I had seen Mastin on census records and knew who he married, but couldn't follow him past 1840. I'd love to know more about him. Your cousin, Steve
