    (III) Stephen, son of John and Nancy (Woodrow) Patton, was born about two and a half miles from Fayette city, in Washington township, Fayette county, Pennsylvania, in 1805, died there in his eighty-seventh year. He was crippled in one limb from boyhood, which exempted him from military duty. He learned the cabinet maker's trade, at which he worked until 1844. He then purchased a farm and devoted the remainder of his life to agriculture. He was a lifelong Democrat, and worshipped according to the Presbyterian faith. He married, in 1838, Susan P. Galloway , born in Washington township, Fayette county, Pennsylvania, in 1816, died, 1889, daughter of Robert, born in Ireland, and Ann T. (Moss) Galloway, born in New Salem, Fayette county. Children: 1. Anna E., born 1839. 2. Sarah E., 1841. 3. John S., of whom further. 4. Robert G., born 1846; was a D.D.S., practicing continuously from 1867 until 1902, when he retired with a competence. 5. Nancy, born 1848. 6. Martha, 1851. 7. Noah W., in early life a mechanical genius, practicing carpentry, cabinet making, stone cutting, plastering, and was a good draughtsman; he was a graduate of California State Normal School (Pennsylvania), taught for several terms, and entered Jefferson Medical College, whence he was graduated M.D. in 1882. Since that date he has been in continuous practice of the medical profession, now located in Charleroi, Pennsylvania . 8. Mary A., born 1856. 9. Rev. Joseph G., born 1860; graduate of Waynesburg College (Pennsylvania), Union Theological Seminary, New York City, 1884, took holy orders, preached first as a supply, then was installed pastor over the Presbyterian church at Brownsville, serving that congregation ten years. He was then placed in charge of the mission at Washington, Pennsylvania, where he continued thirteen years, building up from the mission, a strong prosperous and influential Presbyterian church. In 1911 he accepted an urgent call from the church at Weatherford, Texas, where he is now pastor of a loyal, prosperous congregation.

    There are two children listed on the 1880 census that do not fall in with the information presented in the Genealogical biography presented in the first source. The source lists 9 children, yet in 1880, there is a Stephen (age 8) and a Ralph (age 7). Stephen could easily have been Rev Joseph Galloway Patton, if at some point he chose to change his name or if the census taker misunderstood what his name was. Ralph is the main puzzle. Is Ralph their child or perhaps a child of someone else?
