"William Eli Higginbotham was my ggrandfather. I have been trying to find where he, his father (William G.) and his grandfather (William H.) are buried. All I have found on Wm. Eli and William G. indicates both are buried in Marshall Co., MS and William H. in Hardin Co., TN. Other sources give Perry Co., TN for William H. Does anyone have any definitive information on these three? He and Sarah (Sallie) Moody (who was a Warren) are listing in my family Bible. I have not had any luck finding out where they are buried. William Riley is buried in Gerzium Cemetery, Union Co., Mississippi. Riley's son, William Stephen, was my grandfather who died in 1937."

"John Stone, son of William and Verlinda (Cotton) Stone, was born in Accomac County, Virginia, and was brought to Maryland by his parents in 1648. Circumstances point to the fact that he had three wives, the first one being Elizabeth (???), who is sometime believed to be the daughter of Thomas Warren who died in 1684. John Stone with his wife Elizabeth was present at the negotiation of his brother's will in 1676.

To this union was born two sons, inasmuch as a subsequent deed states that Thomas was the only brother of John of the "whole blood". Matthew was therefore of another marriage. The children of the third union are proved by the fact that his widow was made the guardian of "her" children as well as the executrix of their estates.

Children of John Stone by Earlier Marriages
1. Thomas Stone married twice. q.v.
2. John Stone, d.s.p. 1703, naming bros. Matthew and Thomas; and
Anne Bayne and Anne Fowke (no stated relationship).
3. Matthew Stone married Rachel Smoot. q.v.

Prior to 1684 John Stone married thirdly Eleanor, the daughter of Walter and Eleanor Bayne. The latter by her will, proved in Charles County during 1701, named as heirs Eleanor Stone and Elizabeth Stone who are identified as granddaughters.

John Stone was deeded by his brother, Richard, in 1664 for natural love and affections 500 acres of land on the east side of the Chesapeake Bay on the south side of the Sassafras River. The deed was witnessed by Thomas Manning, Thomas Sprigg, and Humphrey Warren.

On June 11, 1667, John Stone, Gent., appeared at the Perogative Court and took the oath before Charles Calvert as administrator of the estate of his deceased brother, Richard Stone, Gent.

On March 2, 1668, a warrant was issued to John Stone and his brother Thomas to appraise the estate of Thomas Burdit, deceased, late of Charles County. Verlinda Burdit, the relict, was granted letters of administration, and her oath was duly recorded before Joseph Harrison, Gent. A return of the inventory was made on May 14, 1668, at which time it showed that Josias Lambert was an appraiser instead of Thomas Stone.

As early as 1670 John Stone was Gentleman Justice of the Quorum in Charles County; in 1682 he signed a petition as one of His Majesty's Protestant subjects. During 1687 he was again a commissioner of the peace, and from 1678 to 1688 he represented his county in the General Assembly. He was a member of the commission for the advancement of trade in the Province, and in 1689 he was on the committee to regulate civil affairs in Charles County. Another public office, though minor, was coroner of Charles County in 1678.

The will of John Stone was dated September 17, 1697, and was proved in Charles County on August 10, 1698, by the testimony of Joseph Manning, Philip Briscoe, and Notley Warren. His widow, Eleanor, and his son, Thomas, were named as executors. The latter was to administer upon his own estate and that of his two brothers, Matthew and John, while his widow was to administer upon her own estate and that of her children.

Thomas and Walter received equally the dwelling-plantation, a 500-acre portion of "Poynton Manor", and 80 acres of "St. John's" adjoining. Walter was to have the portion of "Poynton Manor" whereon stood the homestead after the decease of his mother.

Matthew and John were devised "Mangawoman" of 500 acres. Eleanor and Elizabeth were devised 400 acres of "Durwin". His widow received one-third of the personal estate. The overseers were Captain John Bayne, Major William Dent, Gerard Fowke, and William Stone.

At a subsequent account by his widow and executrix mention is made of "seven" children. His widow married subsequently Hugh Tears. The latter in his will of 1699 named his wife, Eleanor, as well as Eleanor and Elizabeth Stone. The widow married thirdly on June 22, 1700, John Beall or Beale.

John Stone, b. 1647 and died 1697 in Charles Co. John married first, _____ and second, Eleanor Bayne (dau. of Walter and Eleanor Bayne). After the death of John Stone, Eleanor married second Hugh
