About John Stone

Page 10

7. John 3 Stone (Nathaniel 2, John 1) was born in Salem 20: 2: 1661. He married Hester Gaines, daughter of John and Mary (Treadwell) Gaines of Ipswich April 12, 1683. She died in 1689 or 1690, and he married as his second wife Sarah Gale, daughter of Edmund and Sarah (Dixey) Gale of Marblehead. She died before 1726, when, on April 21, he married widow Jane (Stacy) Stanley, who died, his widow, in 1749, aged nearly eighty.

On May 4, 1736, John Cleaves of Beverly was appointed guardian of John Stone, aged seventy-two, non compos mentis. He was sufficiently sane to make a will two weeks later, however, and his death occurred on July 28, 1736. The will, which was probated on August 2, 1736, states his occupation as weaver, and leaves his property to his wife ("£50 as per indenture"), his nine daughters (named), and his grandsons Ambrose Allen, Ambrose Cleaves, Ambrose Patch, and Ambrose, Daniel, John and Ebenezer Stone. Mr. Robert Morgan and Mr. William Grover were appointed executors and they returned an inventory of £411. The estate was divided June 9, 1737.
