General Notes: Husband - Henry Stoner


He and his wife came from Germany, landing in Baltimore, Maryland. The name as brought from the Fatherland was Steiner, but in America soon became Stoner and has so remained in this branch of the family. They did not long remain in Baltimore, but made their way westward, choosing a location in what is now Forward township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. There he purchased a farm of one hundred and fifty acres, covered with forest and this he cleared and improved, fertile fields following the forest and a good farm house took the place of the earlier log cabin. The grain and other products of his farm that he wished to sell he loaded into flat boats and floated them to the markets on the Ohio river. He died on the homestead, aged seventy-five years. He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian church.
