Notes

Some researchers believe Elizabeth is a YOUNG as a Thomas YOUNG was living with Joseph and Elizabeth Stafford in the 1850 Census. Others believe she was a CHAFFIN. The difference in the ages of Elizabeth in the 1850 and 1860 Censuses could also indicate that Joseph had two wives. The fact that John H. Stafford listed a stepmother "Betsey" in the 1880 census lends some credence to Joseph having two wives.

Listed as Joseph Stafford, with wife Elizabeth age 27, children James W. & John H. and a Thomas Young age 23.
