WELCOME TO THE STOVER FAMILY COMMUNITY ON HOOSIER ROOTS

This line currently starts with Daniel STOVER and his wife Eva ALBRECHT who settled in Shenandoah County, Virgina in the 1700's. It traces its way thorugh Ohio and on into Tippecanoe County, Indiana to my great-grandmother Virginia Ann "Jenny" STOVER, wife of Joseph Ensley McCORD. Along the way it touches on the family lines of METHENY, MICHAELS, BRUMBASH, and LIONBERGER.

Additional information I have, but have not yet studied or verified indicates the family is of Mennonite faith, originating in Switzerland, and later moving to Germany before immigrating to America.

I hope this information helps you in your family history research and look forward to hearing from my distant cousins; email me at stover@hoosierroots.com. To see my research on my other lines go to the HoosierRoots home page.

MOST WANTED

Samuel B. STOVER may have been born November 5, 1800 in Virginia, son of Samuel and Susanna (Brumbash) Stover. Find documentation to verify this. He died January 17, 1873; where did he die and where is he buried?

Martha METHENY (or perhaps Matheny) may have been born August 27, 1839 in Ohio. It is possible she is the daughter of Thomas and Abigail Methany. Martha married first Thomas Applegate, and second William B. Stover. Learn more about Martha. Is any of this information correct? Is it true that she died Decmber 4, 1879? If so, where?
