116639	They had 14 children. George Austin Stafford was also a mechanical whiz and inventor. He created a harvesting machine that apparently pre-dated the McCormick invention but he didn't patent it in time to make his fortune from it. As a young man he lost his arm in a threshing machine (I wonder if he was tinkering with it at the time). To eat his meals one-handed, he invented a "knife-fork", a double-sided implement. I have a photograph of it, given to me by his granddaughter. On the 1930 census, he gives his occupation as "inventor". His sons often list occupations that have to do with mechanics or engineering. And the youngest brother of the bunch, Isaac Branson "Branty", also worked with machinery in a planing mill. Either it's genetic or Isaac (their father) had a huge influence on the proclivity of his sons, eh? It has come down to my generation. Lorenza Derwin Barnett, George's grandson, was always figuring out ways to make things run better or jury-rigging apparatus on the farm. My dad, Harold, has been the same way his whole life -- there was always something disassembled on the kitchen table on weekends. He, like George Stafford's sons, worked in the oil business, hands-on machinery and equipment work. And my little brother, Bill, was a gifted auto mechanic until his death at 42. How incredible to get this story from you. I am so, so grateful for your compilation and sharing. This is what family research should look like. Bless you. -- Meg Barnett George A. Stafford moved to Texas with his parents from North Carolina by horse and covered wagon, settling in Montague Co. where he owned the Circle S. Ranch. The family moved to Belcherville from Montague around 1903 or 1904, and lived there until around 1912, when they moved to Sour Lake, Texas in Hardin County. One source says he is buried in Sour Lake, Hardin Co., TX; another says he is buried in Beaumont, Jefferson Co., TX. George A. Stafford was an inventor, co-owner of the Stafford and Robinson Straw Binder Harvester Manufacturing Company which sold shares in 1891 in Montague Co., TX. Some reports states this binder was in operation before McCormick started manufacturing their bind that mechanized agriculture. He lost his arm at "65 years of age, July 10, 1935, at 5:00." Family story says he lost his arm to the strawbinder machine -- didn't see a doctor right away, blood poisoning set in and he had to have it amputated. George was, according to one family story, a gambler and won a saloon in Raton, NM which he ran for a while but sold because "he saw too many men spending money on booze when they had hungry children at home." He was buried on 1 September 1935 in Beaumont, Jefferson Co.,TX	STAFFORD, George Austin (I1768)
