I am writing a book on the Stone family from Fauquier County Virginia.
Here are a few points I can tell you from my research.
John Stone married a Corder . It was recorded in the “Account Book of Sheriff John Crump from 1751”. The account book has been lost in recent years but I have a record from two genealogists who both recorded the same information and page for the material. One was Henry Wright Newman who wrote The Stones of Poynton Manor and the other is Charles Stone who wrote the Stone’s of Surry. I have reviewed Newman’s actual notes from the book made in the 1930’s and they reveled John Stone married ? Corder. (I suspect the unusual name caused a problem with the transcription. The wives of other Stone sons first and last names are give. He just had a ? Corder for her). I have uncovered a deed by John Stone from Fauquier dated Sept. of 1775 his wife’s name was Milley. She is likely your missing daughter. She was likely born in Prince William County in 1730. John and Milly and their family moved from Fauquier to Laurens SC in 1775. John died there in 1800 and Mildredge died there in abt.1820. I have a copy of a resulting case dividing the homestead in 1822. John identified her in his will as my wife "Mildredge". All other references say Milley or Milly. I also have a copy of her Dower rights from Fauquier. She could only make her mark.
I also found a will for John Coder and one of the executors is Thomas Stone. This would be John Stone’s brother Thomas Stone. Thomas had a daughter Elizabeth and she married a William Dulin. Also Thomas’ son, Thomas had a daughter Parazaid (?) Stone who married Bayles Corder. She died in St. Helena Parish Louisiana.
From my research it appears that John and Mildredge married in 1748/49. Mildredge had children who carried the first names of other Corders. Reuben, William, Lewis, Elias. It appears some of her brothers moved to Laurens. I have found Reuben and Elias Corder living in Laurens near the Stones. Mildredge’s children were John Jr., Reuben, William, Elias, Lewis, and Nancy.
Some of the Stone’s have mistakenly placed John Stone in Surry NC which was not the case. The John Stone, who was John's nephew, was married to a Mary. This likely caused the Mary Corder claims.
Hope This Helps.
