I have recently started research for my Stanton/Staunton line.
& I was hoping someone may have access to Jackson county records
such as cemetary, marriage, etc....Plaese.
I have seen these Stantons in Knox, Jackson, Sullivan, and Greene
county IN
My grtgrtgrandfather was John Stanton b. abt. 1852 in IN,
His 2nd marriage was to Elizabeth Hardin in 1883 Knox County IN.
One of their children was my grtgrandmother Nannie Mae Stanton.
I beleive John Stanton's father was a Moses Stanton b. abt. 1809
in KY. John Stantons mother was Lydia ??? b. in KY or IN.
Moses Stanton's parents may have been Thomas and Polly Stanton as they were
usually close neighboors on the census records & their ages add up.
Moses & Thomas Stanton were both in Jackson County IN on the 1840 & 1850
census.
And Moses Stanton was still there in 1860. thomas might have died in Jackson
County.
I have also seen a marriage for Moses Stanton to Jane HENNING 23 SEPT 1844 in
Jackson County IN. I beleive Moses had a previous wife named
Cinderella/Sindrelly
who may also have died in Jackson.
I would love to hear anything about these Stantons. On a few census records
it was spelled as Staunton.
Thank you
Christine
