Newspaper Article Oct 2, 929. Reprinted from the Champion: 90
Year Old Vet Visits Brother After Many Years. W. W. Alvis of
Etoile, Nacgodoches County, was in Center last week, visiting at
the home of his brother Tom Alvis, this being the first time the
brothers had seen one another in 12 years. W. W. Alvis is 90
years old, hale and hearty and apparently good for many more
useful years on earth. he was in the service of the Southern
Confederacy five years, 1860-1865. In his early years he was a
noted prize fighter and engaged in several memoralble battles
about seventy years ago when boxing gloves had not been thought
of in this country. Men in those days fought with bare fists
and Marquis of Queensberry rules had not then been adopted. The
old war horse is still a pretty good man. he weighs 200 pounds
and gets about as spryly as many men of fewer years. Tom Alvis
is the baby brother of the old prize fighter and is now in his
seventy-ninth year, not so vigorous, but still going strong.
The meeting of the aged brothers here was a joyous occasion.
Newspaper Article, Jan 29, 1939, W. W. Alvis, 98, Civil War
Veteran and Pioneer Resident, Passes into Eternity. William
Warren Alvis, rugged Civil War veteran and lifelong resident of
Nacogdoches County, answered his final earthly call Sunday and
departed into eternity only three months short of his
ninty-eighth birthday. There was nothing dramatic about his
death - he simply sank slowly and quietly in his Valhalla where
like his great Commander, Andrew Jackson, he too, will "rest
under the shade of the trees across the River".
WW Alvis lived in Etoile, Nacgodoches County, Texas until his
death 29 Jan 1939.

2. A Thomas Stanley came from Eng in the ship Planter in 1635,
and removed to Hartford, CT as one of its first planters, and
had a son named Thomas. Later lived in Hadley, MA.
3. Another Thomas Stanley came from Felsted Co., Essex, ENG,
probably in the ship Susan and Ellen, 17 July 1638 and in the
company with his brother-in-law Joseph Loomis.
1704 VA Rent Rolls:
Stanley Edward Henrico County, 1705
Stanley Tho Parish of St. Peters and St.
Paul, 1704
Histories of the Stanley families often ultimately trace this
lineage to William de Alditheley, son of Adam de Alditheley, son
of another of the same name who accompanied William the
Conqueror into England in the Norman invasion of 1066. William
de Alditheley married Joan, daughter of Thomas de Stoneley of an
ancient Saxon family, and they lived in Stafffordshire, whose
land he exchanged for the lands of Stoneley, whence he took his
name.
