When I was about a year old they moved out to my mother's farm and there my two younger sisters were born. They then gathered the rest of the children into the home where those mischievous boys kept things stirring."<br>Pg. 3 "My mother, ''Susan Myer'', had been the wife of ''John Hagan'' who died when they had been married twelve years, leaving her with one little boy, ''John Edward Hagan''. Father had married ''Susan Harvey'', but she died leaving six children: '''John''', ''Joseph, Elliott, Hannah, Catharine, and Susan Blanche'', the baby whom the mother gave to her sister, a ''Mrs. Dustin'', who took her to Illinois... When we left mother's farm, we moved to Clarion County on a farm owned by one of mother's brothers and lived there one year; but father could not farm and do much at his trade too. So we moved into a little burg named Bellville. It was a crossroad town of a few houses, ...Sligo Furnace was (2 miles) south, Madison Furnace five miles west, Polk Furnace four miles north, and Curlville three miles East."

| + | |
− | * By the 1860 census (see [[Barnard V. Stoughton]]), John E. Stoughton was no longer living in the household of his parents. He probably married about 1859, at age 23, as Cassie was born in that year. He apparently used his blacksmithing skills as a farrier in the Civil War. His absence for soldiering may explain the gap in his children's birth dates.
| + | |
− | * John E. Stoughton named one son after his father Barnard VanZandt Stoughon. The son's name is signed as Bernard Vonzant Stoughton on his draft card. Whether this spelling was consistent throughout his life is not know. Spelling was still phonetic and variable in this era. We have used the spelling in the signature.
| + | |
− | * The 1900 census for the Blanchard family lists daughter Eva at home with them in Mead Twp., Warren Co. PA; her husband Herbert is at home with his parents in Hickory Twp, Forest Co. These two townships are about 20 miles apart. He lists the length of marriage at 8 months, she says 9 months; she has possibly gone home to await the delivery of their first child with her mother's assistance.
| + | |
− | * A page by page search of the Hickory Twp, Forest Co, PA census for 1910 gave no Stoughtons except for Bern V. and family. Ancestry index searches of PA for Stoughtons and generally for John E. Stoughton b. PA gave no results. Eva May Stoughton and Herbert Stoughton could not be found when searched for in all states in the 1910 and 1920 census. No Stoughtons born in the 1860's or 1870's in PA seemed to be good matches for the missing children of John E. Stoughton.
