• Notes

  When Frank Stone was about 18 months of age, his father, Ervin, died and the baby was taken into the home of Myles Lockwood at Forfar, later being adopted by the Lockwood family. Myles settled at Forfar, southwest of the Forfar Cheese Factory, about 1840. His father, Isaac, was a pioneer of Wolford, while Myles and his brother, Ambrose, first settled in South Crosby. Myles later took up his homestead at Forfar, and in 1855 built the substantial brick residence in which Grant Stone and his family reside today. Grant is a great-grandson of Frank Stone, grandson of Talmage Stone and son of Ross Stone. Frank, Talmage and Ross each operated the farm for 31 years before passing it on to the next generation. Frank Stone grew up on the Lockwood estate and married Nina Stafford, whose father had been the postmaster and mail carrier for years in the Soperton-Delta area. Nina was born in 1871 and died in 1955 at the age of 84. Frank, a farmer all his life, died in 1943. Frank is listed in the 1881 census as age 14, living in Bastard Twp., Myles Lockwood head of household. Also listed in the census as living in the Myles Lockwood household are his widowed mother, Alvira, and his brother, Levi.
