Anjanette, I believe that the William Stone in Newberry County, SC was my William Stone that died in 1819 and left a will in Jackson County, TN probated in McMinn County, TN. His daughter, my ancestor, first married Thomas Spearman and had 3 children in Newberry, Wesley, Ann Wisdom and Thomas William and then married Edmund Roberts, no children. They moved to McMinn County, TN. Two of the children later moved to Miller County, MO. Ann Wisdom who married William Shelton (later moved to Pulaski County). And Thomas William, my ancestor, who married Nancy Shelton. Do you know of this William Stone and his parentage? He also had sons named Uriah and Elijah. There is some connection to Barren County, KY also. Uriah had a son named Asbury. William may have had a brother named Archibald.
