Mr. Israel Stone, son of John Stone, Esq., and Elizabeth his wife, was born on that part of Muschopauge farm now owned by Luke Baker, April 15, 1749, and on July 12, 1768, was married to Lydia Barret, daughter of Stephen and Elizabeth Barret, who was born on Walnut Hill, (now a part of Paxton,) May 24, 1751, by whom he had the following children, who were dedicated in baptism, and called by the following names : Sardene, Elizabeth, Matilda, Jasper, Lydia, Israel, Augustus, Franklin, Christopher Columbus and Polly Buckley.
Although Mr. Stone and his family were industrious and of good abilities, yet, by a combination of causes, he become straitened in circumstances. But he and his wife and children had the enterprise, resolution and fortitude, without property, and nothing to rely upon but a kind providence, good friends, and their own energy, to emigrate to Ohio, where they arrived safe. It might with propriety be said, if they had not wealth, they were a valuable acquisition to the new State. Israel, the son, was drowned in the Ohio river. Mrs. Stone died a few years after their arrival. Mr. Stone married for his second wife a woman from England. They are also dead. Their descendants are many, some of whom are wealthy, learned and respectable.
The number that emigrated from Rutland to Marietta and its vicinity, were about fifty souls.
