BIRTH
Washington Stafford was born 05 September 1820 in Hampshire County, Virginia. This is information from his biography in the 1887 History of Livingston County, Illinois, as well as from his tombstone and other sources. This is also supported by his information in the census from 1850-1900.
PARENTS
Research in the records of Hampshire County, Virginia, led us to the conclusion that Washington's parents were Joseph S. Stafford and Elizabeth Myer. This was finally confirmed when I was given a copy of the page from t
he Livingston County History, in which he states he was one of eight children of Joseph and Elizabeth Meyer Stafford.
Elizabeth's maiden name was spelled Myer on the marriage record; Meyer in the history.
SIBLINGS
In the aforementioned history (text below), Washington gave his siblings as Lizzie Jane Wiley, John, Sarah Long, Susan Brace, Mary Ridgeley, William and James. Our research had already confirmed Lizzie, John, Susan, M
ary, and James, and I suspected William. This is the confirmation.

Washington Stafford to Elizabeth Licklighter, 29 Nov 1842
CHILDREN
His biography in the Livingston County HIstory says they had eight children, and he names them--James, John, Joseph, George, Louisa, Matilda, Lyldia and Mazy.
Elizabeth told the 1900 census she had given birth to 10 children, and 7 were still alive. The 3 dead are Joseph, who disappeared "out west"; an infant born about 1859; and Isabella Hanna Stafford, said to have died 17 Mar 1893 and is buried in the Payne Cemetery. However, Isabell appears on no census records with her parents. I wonder if the date is correct.

WASHINGTON STAFFORD. This gentleman for the past thirty-five years has been the interested observer o the many and great changes which have taken place in Central Illinois since his first arrival here in 1852. He was then a young man thirty-two years of age and had come to the West to build up for himself a permanent home. He possessed very little means and b
eing dependent upon his own resources at once began to exercise those habits of industry and economy to which he had been trained, and which had become his second nature. These were qualities quite common among the early pioneers and were the only basis upon which they could hope to build successfully in their efforts to secure their own comfort and well-being and that of their children.
Our subject is pleasantly located on section 21, Eppard's Point Township where he owns eighty acres of valuable land which he has brought to a g
ood state of cultivation and provided with substantial buildings. He has carried on general farming and on into years has made a specialty of stock raising in which he has been successful. He has just passed the sixty
-seventh year of his age and with his estimable wife, is still in good health, which is the usual result of correct and temperate living.

100947 Moved to Port Elgin, Ontario in 1852 and gave property that town was built
on. Moved to Scotland, South Dakota in 1872 and gave property to the town for the new railroad. e belonged to the United Brethren Church of Ontario. In
Scotland he ran the general store, was the first postmaster and first mayor.

JOHN STAFFORD, Postmaster, was born near St. Catherines, Ont., in 1810, and lived there for sixty-three years engaged in mercantile business and other pursuits. In 1872 he came to the Territory of Dakota, bringing a stock of goods with him. He located 160 acres of land in Bon Homme County. The country was very new and it was seventy-four miles to a railroad point. Mr. Stafford put up a small building and opened the first stock of goods for sale in this part of the county. He soon after was appointed Postmaster, and managed to do quite a business in selling goods, farming, etc. In 1879, the railroad was built through the county and Mr. Stafford donated ninety acres to the Railroad Company to build a town, which has been named Scotland. He has since platted several additions to the town and has been one of the leading men in building it up. He has been liberal to those who come to the place to settle, and has donated several tracts of land to different enterprises which would benefit the place. He has also made many improvements in the town and on his land which add to their beauty. In 1839, he was married to Miss Rebecca Shoope, of Youngstown, N. Y., and has raised seven children - Adam, George, Abel, John, Mary, Emily and Rebecca.
