INDEX

[17735]

Mike Stafford (12580 Havelock Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90066) shared in 2002:

Josiah STAFFORD (STOVER) was born about 1662 in Cape Neddick, York Co. ME. Another source has his birth about 1674. He signed a will in JUN 1742 in Bristol, Co. MA. "Abstracts of BRISTOL COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS - Probate Records ,1687-1745," compiled by H L. Peter Rounds (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1987) Vol. 10, p. 327:

Will of Josiah Stafford of Tiv., Yeoman, "Being Aged Yet in Good Health," dtd. 1 Jun 1742, prob. 17 May 1743. Wife Sarah, Sons: Joseph (eldest son), David & Abraham Stafford, 8 daus: Pricilla, Lowdin, Sarah, Elizabeth, Bethiab, Bathsheba, Phebe, Hannah & Patience. Grson Samuel son of my dau. Sarah. Friend and neighbor Joseph Anthoney of Tiv. To be Exec. Witns: George Weastgate, Bathsheba Howland & Ebenezer Mousher. He died on 9 APR 1743 in Tiverton, Newport Co. RI.11He Will Proved on 22 JUN 1743. He was a Shipwright.

Chronology of Josiah Stover-Stafford:

21 Jul 1687 - Josiah Stover named as son in will of Sylvester Stover (Sargent, Maine Wills, Pg 12)

2 Mar 1692 - Neither the name of Josiah Stover nor that of Josiah Stafford occurs on the list of those present at the organization of the Town of Tiverton.

8 Sep 1697 - Josiah Stafford sold the sloop Scanderbeg to Sarah Fowler of Boston (RI Land Evidence, quoted by Grace Stafford Durfee in the LDS film No. 802446) (Also abstract in RI Roots, Vol 13, No. 2, Pg 31, 1937)

14 Feb 1698 - Sary/Sarah daughter of Josiah Stover born (Tiverton Town records, LDS film 913076. - The birth of Sarah Stover was recorded by Arnold in Vol. 4, Newport Co., Tiverton Sect. on pg 109 and the birth of Sarah Stafford, of Josiah and Sarah, the same day, on pg 108.

11 Apr 1699 - Sarah Lake, now the wife of Josiah Stafford, called before the Bristol Court. (The American Genealogist, Vol XII, pg 22)

17 Jul 1702 - Josiah Stover of Tiverton, shipwright, sold lands in Tiverton to Joseph Wanton. George Stover, his brother, was a witness. (Bristol Co. MA, Book 4, pages 298-299).

24 Jun 1704 - Josiah Stover and wife Sarah appeared and gave consent to the above sale.

19 Apr 1705 - Josiah Stafford's ear mark entered (Tiverton Town records).

1709 - Josiah Stover was of Tiverton RI (New Eng. Hist. & Gen. Reg. Vol XXXV, Pg 302, 1931(

1709 - Josiah Stover was of Tiverton, RI when he quit claimed to his brother Independance (Noyes et al, Gen. Dict. ME & NH Pg 667).

25 Mar 1709/10 - Josiah Stafford voted gran Jure man (Tiverton Town Rec)

27 Mar 1714 - Sias Stafford, tithing man for year. (Ibid)

7 Dec 1714 - Josiah Stover named in will of mother, Elizabeth Stover, Scituate, MA.

12 Mar 1721/22 - Josiah Stafford, tithing man (Tiverton Town Rec.)

1722 - Josiah Stover, living. (Noyes et al)

12 Apr 1722 - Josiah Stafford was named in a deed recorded. (Bristol Co. MA, and records, Northern Dist. Book 14, pp 209-210)

12 Jun 1723 - Tiverton Town meeting voted Thomas Jones, Schoolmaster, to keep a school at Joshua Dwellys or Josiah Stover's.

12 Mar 1723/24 - Josiah Stafford constable.

11 Jan 1727/28 - Josiah Stafford bought lands in Tiverton, RI from Peter Tallman (Tiverton land records Vol. 3, pg 257).

All the above evidence point to the conclusion that Josiah Stover and Josiah Stafford were one and the same. No list of inhabitants of Tiverton, RI, has been found that contains the two names on the same day, other than that of the birth of Sarah. Information for the Stafford family bible, as published in the Durfee Genealogy, vol. 1, pg 293 also supports the conclusion that Josiah Stover and Josiah Stafford are one and the same. (See LDS film no. 839398)

Charles Warner Stafford in his Index to the Stafford Families of New England has the same conclusion but does make the note that Josiah Stover was raised by Thomas Stafford Jr. As Thomas was a ship builder, this may explain why Josiah became a shipwright and changed his name. Also the difference in the pronouniation of Stover and Stafford was not great during this era.

An unidentified source has Josiah as the son of Thomas Stafford Jr.and his first wife Jane Dodge (m. 20 Dec 1671) Thomas Jr. died 26 Jan 1723 in Warwick RI and did not name Josiah is his will.
