STONE - born on Mill creek, Jackson county, March 7, 1856, and Lelia F. Douglas, born in the same county, near the mouth of Mill creek, November 25, 1858, were joined in wedlock at the bride's residence, the Rev. W. M. Weekly officiating clergyman. They were married on the twenty-first anniversary of the bride's birth, November 25, 1879, and they have now two children: Bertha May, born January 7, 1881, and Homer H., born August 28, 1882. Calvin and Jennette (Brownell) Douglas were the parents of Mrs. Stone, and Otho M. Stone was the son of Elias and Ollie Ann (Shinn) Stone, the former born in Jackson county in 1832, and the latter born in this county in 1835. George Stone, grandfather of Otho M., was one of the pioneers of this locality. He came from Greene county, Pennsylvania, to take up his residence on the banks of Mill creek in 1817. He was one of the first squires of the county, and was among the first sheriffs of Jackson county. In starting for himself in life, Otho M. Stone was first engaged in teaching. His first school was at Mt. Olive, this county, his next term at Pleasant Hill, the third at Union, and the fourth and last at Pine Hill, which was his home school. He taught in all four years, and then embarked on a mercantile career. He is dealing in dry goods, notions, hardware, queensware, tinware, cutlery, and the various articles that stock a well-kept store of miscellany suited to the trade he commands. He sells cheap for cash or produce, and all who come to Silverton will do well to remember and investigate the cheap and reliable goods of Otho M. Stone, merchant and postmaster of Silverton, Jackson county, West Virginia.
