Source notes

Per 1895 History of Butler County, daughter of Mathew S.Stoughton & Margaret Stoughton was Mary Isabelle Stoughton, birthdate unknown.
Per 1860 census, daughter Margaret T. was born ~1856. Since the census record was transcribed from microfilm, a possibility exists that the script could have been Mary I., translated as Margt. T. A review is needed.
