Notes

By Me Samuel Hale—Justice. These May Certify all Persons Concerned that William Stone was Married to Margret Dix August ye 18th 1696.Woodbridge and Vicinity, p. 342
Death
There is an entry in the New Jersey Calendar of Wills for a William Ston, but just the inventory, date 12 March 1702/3. This could be him since I have found only three children for him, the last one in 1700.Endnotes
