2	Will of Jacob Stoughton, abstract, from Book B, p.195. Jacob Stoughton of Muddy Creek Twp., Butler Co., PA filed 25 June 1841 (possibly signed 2 Apr. 1841). Lists mother Catherin; brothers William, Andrew, John, Barnard; 2nd cousin William Stoughton; nieces Eleana Logan, Catherin Boile; nephews Thomas Patterson, Jacob Stoughton.

It appears from the will abstract that John and Barnard are two separate brothers; this may be the result of a misplaced comma; original will needs to be viewed.
