Abstract: Catherine Covert was of Holland descent; her mother's maiden name was Van Zandt, a family that settled on Manhattan Island, NY. John Stoughton, of English descent, was a farmer and owned 350 acres of land in three farms. His brother Samuel Stoughton was a Baptist minister, and the entire family was strict in its religious observances. Children of John and Catherine Covert Stoughton were: William, Luke, Andrew, Jacob (died unmarried); John, (also a participant in the war of 1812), Barnard, Jane (married Thomas Boyle), Hannah (married John Patterson);Effie, married Robert Logan, a farmer, who was killed during the Civil War; Polly (died young).

Source notes

  • Assuming Robert Logan is approximately the same age as Euphamia, he would have been around 50 at the start of the Civil War. This seems old for a soldier. There is a different Robert Logan (age 19) in the 1860 census for Slippery Rock Twp.
  • 1850 and 1860 census searches for Butler County give a Rober Logan b. ca. 1800 living with other people, but no evidence of Euphamia.
