General Notes: Husband - William L. Stoner


In early life, after acquiring a common school education, he learned the trade of carpenter, becoming an expert mechanic as the result of close application to his work during his term of apprenticeship, and later became a contractor and builder, many of the finest buildings in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, were monuments to his skill and ability along these lines. Failing health forced him to abandon his work and in order to recuperate he started for Colorado, May 15, 1888, but died at Wood River, Nebraska, passing away while yet in the prime of life. He was a consistent member of the United Brethren church, and a man of exemplary habits, honored and respected by a wide circle of friends and acquaintances.
