Stoughton|Jennie Stoughton Osborn]], Copyright 1935, Medicine Lodge, Kansas. <br>Pg. 2 "My mother was living on her farm near Matildaville, Pennsylvania when she met my father, [[Barnard VanZant Stoughton]], who was working at his trade, the shoe business, in Kalensburg, Armstrong, Co., Pa. When I was about a year old they moved out to my mother's farm and there my two younger sisters were born. They then gathered the rest of the children into the home where those mischievous boys kept things stirring."<br>Pg. 3 "My mother, ''Susan Myer'', had been the wife of ''John Hagan'' who died when they had been married twelve years, leaving her with one little boy, ''John Edward Hagan''. Father had married ''Susan Harvey'', but she died leaving six children: '''John''', ''Joseph, Elliott, Hannah, Catharine, and Susan Blanche'', the baby whom the mother gave to her sister, a ''Mrs. Dustin'', who took her to Illinois... When we left mother's farm, we moved to Clarion County on a farm owned by one of mother's brothers and lived there one year; but father could not farm and do much at his trade too. So we moved into a little burg named Bellville. It was a crossroad town of a few houses, ...Sligo Furnace was (2 miles) south, Madison Furnace five miles west, Polk Furnace four miles north, and Curlville three miles East."

| − | * By the 1860 census (see [[Barnard V. Stoughton]]), John E. Stoughton was no longer living in the household of his parents. He probably married about 1859, at age 23, as Cassie was born in that year. The 13-year break before another child is born would seem to indicate that Mahala J. was a 2nd wife. We have no evidence yet of a first wife. It is possible that Cassie J. Stoughton was a niece or other relation; or that John and Mahala waited 13 years after the first child was born to have more children. These options seem less likely. If Cassie were a niece, it still leaves unexplained why the couple waited so long to have their children.
| + | |
| − | * John E. Stoughton apparently used his blacksmithing skills as a farrier in the Civil War. His absence for soldiering explains the gap in the birth years of his children.
