General Notes: Husband - John C. Stoughton

---

The Stoughtons were early settlers in Clay Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and he was born on the old family homestead there and moved to a Franklin township farm at the time of his marriage. At that time that section was practically a wilderness, and he cleared off all but three acres of the farm. He became one of the foremost citizens of the township, taking an active part in the development of its various resources. He was frequently elected to public office and served at different times and for a number of years as school director, collector and supervisor.
He and his wife were members of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, of which his father was one of the founders.
