    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Hollier, Stone Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DkB.2ACI/956 Message Board Post: Hello - I am Susan Neff, Historian of the Dr. James Ford Historic Home in Wabash, Indiana (visit us at www.jamesfordmuseum.org). I am searching for descendants of Dr. James and America Ford. One of them, a granddaughter, lived and died in San Antonio. All information and documents received will become part of our Ford family exhibit with credit to the contributor. I am looking for MARY STELLA (STONE) HOLLIER. She was born Nov 26 1872 in Gilman, Illinois, the 2nd of 3 children of Nancy Anna (Ford) Stone and Capt. William Daily Stone. Capt. Stone owned a railroad construction company and by the late 1800s had settled permanently in Lake Charles, Louisiana with his son, Robert Raymond and daughter Mary Stella. Stella married Sidney Hollier in Lake Charles; I believe Sidney was a haberdasher (or something in the clothing industry). They moved to San Antonio sometime in the early 1900s and had one daughter, Kathryn Hollier, then divorced. I believe that Stella died Jun 23 1962 and her daughter died shortly after. I also believe that Kathryn may have married and divorced but had no children. I would be most appreciative of all information about Mary Stella Stone Hollier and her daughter Kathryn -- photos, newspaper articles, residence(s), occupation(s), obits, cemetery info/photos, probated wills, etc. I am particularly interested to know what became of their personal possessions and family photographs. Thank you in advance for you kind attention to my request. --- Susan Neff, Historian
