Hi Dave, I have been attempting to research STONE's from Oxford for many years. My husband's gr-gr-grandfather, Joseph (possibly Joseph Henry) STONE was supposedly born in the Oxford area about 1831. His parents' names, birthdate and birthplace are unknown. He was in the US in Indiana by 1850 according to the 1850 Fed Census for Jennings County, IN and died in 1862 while serving with the 1st Iowa Cavalry in Missouri during the Civil War. His childrens' names were: Martha Ann, William Henry and Sophia Rosalee. There was a William STONE listed in the 1831 Militia Ballot for Oxfordshire. He was a laborer aged about 23. I don't know if there is any connection. Carolyn
