Source notes

Per Jeanne Eichelberger, children of Mathew S.Stoughton (1832-1855) & Margaret Stoughton were Oliver W. Stoughton, born 6 Mar. 1853, and Mary Isabelle Stoughton, birthdate unknown.
Per 1860 census, daughter Margaret T. was born ~1856. The father, Mathew Stoughton, apparently died when the son was age 2, and wife pregnant with 2nd child.
