My name is Jerry D. McAfee,my great great grandmother was Percilla Stoddard and she was born in ca 1800 and died in 1874 and is buried in the Black Oak, Ar. graveyard. She possibly came from Va. as she brought a colored slave with her and the 1870 has her being from Va. I have no other information other that she had a son named John Stoddard. Thanks for any suggestion on how I may go to search this out. Jerry D. McAfee --Previous Message-- : I have written a new book on the line of : Anthony Stoddard, who came to Boston in 1638 : and built a large fortune as well as a large : family in the New World. The book is a : collection of short biographies of sixteen : Stoddard men and their wives and children, : beginning in the 1500s in England and : stretching to the present day. There are : charts showing every child born to each of : these sixteen Stoddard men, who are: : William, James, Anthony of London, Anthony : of Boston, Solomon, Rev. Anthony, Gideon, : Gideon II, Rev. John, Chauncy, John, Hobart : Arnold, Edward Cross, Edward Irland, and : myself. These charts were the work of : Charles Stoddard of Littleton, NH, who spent : his life cataloging more than 80,000 : Stoddard names and connecting them to four : lines. : : I used more than fifty sources in : researching the work, and although the book : reads more like a collection of stories than : a true genealogy, I believe the data is : sound and will stand close examination. The : data on each of the principal Stoddard men : is extensive, but the collateral data in the : text and in the invaluable charts is also of : excellent quality. Each man's wives and : children are listed, and in most cases there : is information about who they married and : whether there were children. : : I have donated copies to the Woodbury Public : Library, to Historic Northampton, to the Old : Woodbury Historical Association, and to the : Stoddard Family Association, publishers of : The Tribeloid and owners of this site. : : I will try to answer queries about how your : own family may connect to this line, either : on this forum, or through direct contact : through the email listed.
