Source notes
- [2]*The Stoughton organizers of Muddy Creek Baptist church may be Catherine Covert Stoughton, her sons Jacob and Andrew, and her brother in law Samuel Stoughton (who later became a Baptist minister). It is more likely however that the Catherine Stoughton mentioned is Catherine McCune, wife of Samuel Stoughton.
- [3]Samuel was ordained as Baptist minister 28 Nov 1823; was minister of Muddy Creek Baptist Church 1823-1862.
Conjecture
Research Wishlist
- Samuel has a will, Will Book D, p. 152, dated 20 Feb 1862, filed 9 May 1862
- Separate children by mother; presumably James and Morgan came from the first marriage?
