My name is Brenda and I am working on my grandfather, Robert Stantons family. Robert Stanton was born Oct 20 1911 Muskogee Co Okla Robert married Ella Hedge on Dec 17 1933 Creek Co Okla,and Robert died May 2 1984 in Kern Co Calif. His parents were James Wallace Stanton and Francis LouElla Holmes. Jame and Francis were married Nov 14, 1908 McIntosh Co Olka. James was born May 12 1885 Panola Co Miss and died Oct 1 1955 and is buried in Kern Co Calif. Francis was born June 1893 Johnson Co Ark. and died Jan 29 1916 Okmulge Co Okla. Starting with James and working the Stantons back I found that in 1910 James was living in McIntosh Co with his wife, daughter. mother and mother-in- law. 1910 McIntosh Co Okla Census page 190 Cobb Twp James Stanton head M W 23 M1 B.Ms Farmer Rented the Farm Lou wife F W 17 M1 B Ark mother of 1 1 child living Georgia daug F W 6/12 B Okla Nancy Stanton moth F W 57 W1 B Ark mother of 10 2 children living Mary Holmes moth F W 58 W1 B Ark mother of 10 4 children living In 1900 James was with his mother in Conway Co.

It has been said that George Stanton was killed on 4th of July He was hit in the head by a horse shoe by a drunk I assume in Panola Co Since James was born there.

I havent found George Stanton in 1860 but I do know that in 1858/69 Lafayette Co Miss A George married a Martha Edward and I assume that shes the mother of George Jr who I found in Conway Co ... I guess maybe George and Martha may of went to Indiana where George Jr was said to be born... Looking in Lafayette Co in 1850 Index book there were no Stantons or Edwards there. But I did find where George Stanton enlisted for the Civil war: July 26th 1862 George Enlisted in the Army from Elba, Coffee Co Ala for 3 yrs.. George was first in the Co A-33 Ala and was later in the Miss Sharp Shooters Co B 15 Battalion . The 15th Infantry Ban was organized in the fall of "62" and had broke upby "64". George was wounded on Sept 20, 1663 in the Battle of Chickamunga Last Name First Name Middle Initial Co. Rank Enlistment Enlistment Place Note Stanton George W. .A Private 2/11/62 Elba Al .

Sherman at Durham Station, North Carolina on April 26, 1865. As you can see I am not sure what took place with George Jr and his mother Martha Edwards Stanton but any of you who has worked the Stantons in Indiana I would sure like to hear from you. In 1850 I found George living in Scott Co Ky In which Ky was the State he was born in... He was working on a farm., Not living with his parents: 1850 at the age of 26 George was living in Scott Co Ky. George was found living with Jesse Morgon family on page 486 The census said he was a labor. In Russell Co Ky not far from Scott Co...William and Pheobe Stanton were living there: 1850 Kentucky Census Rusell Co Thomas Stanton..19 M W Farmer b Ky Mathew Stanton...84 M W Farmer b Va William Stanton... 80 M W Farmer b Va Pheobe 75 F W keeping house b Va Wm A.J. 21 M W Farmer .b.Va John G. 31 M W farmer b Va Thom J 18 M W b Va Rueben T 16 M W b Tn Garard 14 M W b Tn Pleasant Duncan 15 M W b Ky Eliza Jane " ' 13 F W b Ky John Duncan 10 M W b Ky Jeremiah Stanton 43 M W Farmer b Va Mary 39 F W b Ky Sarah Jane 12 F W bKy Wm H 11 M W b Ky Simon B 8 M W b Ky John G 6 M W b Ky Nancy Ann 2 F W b Ky Mary E 1/12 F W b Ky William Stanton died in Russell Co prior 1860 and Pheobe, I didnt fing in 1870 so she died before 1870 in Russell Co Ky. 1860 Kentucky Co Census Pheobe Stanton 85 F W B Va S.G. 38 M W b Ky Thomas 28 M W b Ky William Stanton 21 M W b Ky Thomas Stanton 67 M W b Ky In 1840 I believe that William was in Ky : 1840 Kentucky Census Russell Co Ky Jerimah Stanton .... 1 male under 5, 1 male 15-20, 2 male 20-30 , 1 female 10-15, 1 female 15-20 William Stanton ....1 male under 5,4 male 5-10,1 male 15-20 2 male 20-30 and 1 male 60-70, 1 female 10-15, 1 female 15-20, 1 female 60-70 And in 1830 I think he was the William in Casey Co Ky and had been there by 1822: Kentucky Land Grants 1822 William Stanton - 50 acres Casey Co 1825 William Stanton - 50 acres Casey Co 1832 William Stanton - 50 acres Casey Co Book B2 pg 159 8-24 William 's son Thomas bought land in Russell Co 1851 1830 Kentucky Census William Stanton Casey Co.... 1 male 5-10,1 male 15-20, 1male 20-30 and a male 80-90...1 female under 5, 2 female 5-10,1 female 10-15, 1 female 15-20, 1 female 20-30 and 1 female 30-40. I cant help but think the Stanton male 80-90 is Williams father who the age would fit for William Stanton B 1750 in Culpeper Co Va and married Lucy Blackwell . In 1820 I ran across 2 Williams One in Harrison Co Ky the other in Rockingham Co Va and I believe the William in Rockingham is the one I am tracing:The 1810 Rochingham Co Va Census read : 2 males under 10 1 male 10-16; 1 male 16-26 and 1 male 26-45 2 females under 10 ;1 female 10-16 ; 1 female 16-26 I have nothing on William in 1810 ,1800 Or 1790 But I did find a William who married a Feby Powell on Dec 25 1794 in Madison Co Va which is near Culpeper Co Va where I believe William and Feby were born. I did run across this in Virginia But I cant say for sure he is the William Stanton I am looking for.
