There was a John Stone from Virginia who was killed by the Indians just prior to the start of King Philip's war here in New England (it was one of the precipitating events). I wonder if there is a connection. You didn't give any dates for your John Stone. Given the large number of John Stones, dates are always immensely helpful (as are locations) _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
