I have no idea who this person is responding to. Could everyone please indicate to WHOM they are responding and put the first known ancestral GIVEN NAME (we all know they are Stones,) a DATE (even approximate), and a PLACE in the subject line?

I, too, get a great deal of E-mail for my many families, and check the subject line to determine if I need to even open the mail.

I figured his name was a simple misspelling of Caleb when he was Born but his Real name Was Clabe Stone I have his middle name someplace but frogot where I put it. It was a different name also. I know my one aunt got real mad when the paper printed his name as Caleb and called and said that his name was definately Clabe unfortunately I don't know any of his 12 siblings names Thanks again for the help Rocky 2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > > > > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > >

Re: names I had an Uncle Elba which you would think would be pronounced "L-ba" but everyone in the family has always called him "El-bee". A great uncle was always called Uncle Ed. He was a bachelor who ended up raising his nephew when his parents died. When he married at 66, his wife assumed him name was Edward and got him to make his legal papers as Edward. But, when he died and we got into family records more, we found his name was actually Edwin. My grandfather was William Clayton Wilson and everyone called him Jake and that is the name he used when he signed his name. In some cases I think misspelling or mispronunciation may have come from the simple fact that not everyone could read and write. Even Oprah's parents misspelled her name and she is called by the name the way it was spelled and not the name they meant for her to be called. Genealogy can be a challenge. It is either something like the above or your brick wall is a common name like John Stone. . . . . Cora
Good morning, Name spelling can be a real big problem.........I searched for Sereno STONE for several years, stumbled on to the spelling Cyreno Stone which was the way the census in 1850 was spelled. This was my Sereno and it led to a lot of good information. Just a thought. Jacqueline jacroing67@aol.com

I have been into genealogy searching for about 15 years and find that one person's name can be spelled many ways. I have also found that back in the 1800s and before names were very strange. Some came from Gaelic, and other languages and are spelt differently in English!

by any chance do you have a Luther B. stone this man was my great grandfather his wife was marryann , had a search done and the found him on the 1820 censu from Bridgton , cumberland county Maine . He had 2 sons george franklin stone [my grandfather] and a brother henry stone which I have no record on, only remember my father telling of this man and he lived in patten maine. any help would be great. My brother was Lyman lester stone 1916-------------virginia a stone----------------------
Irene: My 3rd greatgrandfather is Otis H. Stone (Aft.1863-1918) and he had a brother named Lyman Thomas Stone (1848-1867). Their 5th greatgrandparents are David & Ursula Stone. This is where are familybranches connect. They are the parents of your ancestor Gregory and my ancestor Simon. I would like to share info with you. If there are other Mass. Stone Researchers that are decended from David & Ursula, we should think about sharing info in this public forum to help others.

I wonder where the Lyman comes from,since it seems to have been used by several family "branches". My Stones are mostly from Massachusetts (descended from Gregory). Was Lyman a more common name than I thought? We also had, years ago, the Lyman School (for delinquent boys) in Mass. - so it is entirely possible it was just a popular name at the time. > >_________________________________________________________________ >Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp. > > >============================== >To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, >go to: >http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com

Hi Virginia, Which (where?) census are you talking about? Do you know what the *B* stands for? My Edward was born in 1823, somewhere near to Yaxley Huntingdonshire England. He did not come to Canada until 1855-56 and he stayed in Nova Scotia Canada and is buried in Bedford Nova Scotia. So I don't think we could be talking about the same family. It is awful, isn't it with a name like Stone. Nearly as bad as Brown or Clark, which are two other names I am researching, in Scotland. We believe some of our Edward's grandchildren may have gone to the USA, as we do know some went to western Canada, but that would have been after 1900 most likely. We do not know of any of Edward's siblings though either, or his uncles. Anything with those lines is possible, of course. Good luck with your research, Warmest regards, Trena Heater, Ontario, Canada. ----- Original Message ----- From: <ginger1936@aol.com> To: <STONE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 15, 2002 12:43 PM Subject: Re: [STONE] Edward Bauld STONE & Mary Elizabeth PHILLIPS > Yaxley, Huntingdon... > I have an interst in your family , My great grandfather Luther b stone, who > we found in the 1820 census I have no dates but I have wall and I hope this > will lead to something.

I agree with Linda. I found a Clade Stone, too, but no Clabe. As she says, we are wrong if you have that name spelled that way in multiple examples. David You wrote: Ralph: I've been doing this much too long but it strikes me that you could be looking at a misspelling. If you have Clabe all over the place then I'm wrong...but I'm guessing the correct name could be Caleb. Wish you luck! Linda
You are probably right but the misspelling took place at his birth I knew my grandfather and visit the cemetary when I am in the area his name was spelled Clabe. He couldn't read nor write so a lot of communication with his family was probably lacking thank you for your input.
