      JCMR shows marriage of Barbary - since there are no other Stones, I am putting her as a daughter until I can place her elsewhere or someone tells me otherwise.

      House, 'Pioneers of Jackson County, pg 152
      George stone and wife, Lucinda Miller, and three daughters, Minerva, Sally and Elizabeth, left Greene County in October of 1823, and floated down to the mouth of big Mill creek.

      Hardesty's History of Jackson County
      Ravenswood District
      George Stone, grandfather of Otho M., was one of the pioneers of this locality. He came from Greene county, Pennsylvania, to take up his residence on the banks of Mill creek in 1817. He was one of the first squires of the county, and was among the first sheriffs of Jackson county. In starting for himself in life, Otho M. Stone was first engaged in teaching. His first school was at Mt. Olive, this county, his next term at Pleasant Hill, the third at Union, and the fourth and last at Pine Hill, which was his home school. He taught in all four years, and then embarked on a mercantile career. He is dealing in dry goods, notions, hardware, queensware, tinware, cutlery, and the various articles that stock a well-kept store of miscellany suited to the trade he commands. He sells cheap for cash or produce, and all who come to Silverton will do well to remember and investigate the cheap and reliable goods of Otho M. Stone, merchant and postmaster of Silverton, Jackson county, West Virginia.
