The Bonham and Tracy families, both old families of Edgefield Co., S.C. having come from Maryland. One of the Chief Justices of S.C. was Milledge Bonham.

James Stanley, born Oct. 5, 1822, in Fayette Co., Ind. His parents, George and Elisabeth Stanley, were natives of South Carolina, which state they left immigrating to Ind. And settled in Fayette County. James Stanley was reared a farmer and the advantages of an education, so essential in the formation of the youthful character, were enjoyed by him in a very limited degree. He improved the opportunities, however, and thereby laid the foundation for an education, which added to a long business experience, has developed into a fund of practical knowledge. Jan. 2, 1845, he came to Cass County, Ind., and settled in the Western Reserve, where he purchased a tract of govt. Land and engaged in farming. He was appointed deputy sheriff, under Williard G. Nash, in 1861, and subsequently served in the same capacity under John Davis. He was elected sheriff in 1868, and after discharging the duties of the position in a manner satisfactory to all concerned, resumed farming, which he carried on at intervals until 1884. In the latter year he was the democratic nominee for sheriff, and after a spirited contest against a very popular competitor, was elected by a handsome majority. He is the present incumbent of the office, and against his record no shade of suspicion has ever been uttered.

Mr. Stanley enjoys great personal popularity, and is a gentleman of intelligence and generous impulses. He is a representative Democrat, of the old school, and has been alive to the interests of his party in Cass County. Mr. Stanley was married, 1841, to Mary Salyer of Fayette County, Ind., who has borne him ten children: James B., Martha (wife of Charles Graffis), J. W. Belle, George W., and Laura M. The deceased members of the family were: Andrew J., Margaret E., Mary and Caroline. Mr. Stanley has been a member of the Masonic Fraternity since about 1853, and belongs to Galveston Lodge, No. 244.

Lewis Stanley Jr., son of Lewis and Adah Stanley, was born in 96th Dist. Spartanburg, S.C., in 1788, m Judith _____ born 1790 in S.C. She may have been Judith Croue, as Rebecca Croue born 1775 in S.C., was living with them in 1850 in Cobb Co., Ga.

Lewis Stanley was married in the 1810 Census of Pendleton Co., S.C., age 16-26, wife 16-26; no children.

In a Bible record of Wm. Thomas Stanley, gr. grandson of Lewis and Adah Stanley, Lewis was named as one of their sons, no birth dates given for any of the children, probably from family legend.

There are several land deeds found in the records at Anderson, S.C. Bk. M. P-151, April 19, 1813, Wiley Roberts and Ann Gibson to Lewis Stanley, Jr., 100 acres $150.00, bounded by Joseph and William McClure, Arthur Johns, wit: John Gentry, William Ledbetter.

Lewis Stanley Bk. __ et al. Pickens Co., S.C. 857 acres June 12, 1833, 417 acres June 14, 1833, Lewis Stanley and wife Judith, deeded 100 acres March 31, 1834 to John Burns of Lawrence Dist. S.C. (land on Camp Branch, Conneross Creek, see deeds).

We assume Lewis Stanley, Jr., and wife went to Georgia between March 31, 1834, and 1835, as their 187 daughter Eliza H. Stanley was born in Ga. 1835, this from 1850 Census Big Shanty Dist., Cobb Co.

Hoyt Stanley, no dates, buried in Mars Hill Cem. said to be the son of Lewis Stanley, Jr. and wife Judith.

On May 4, 1849, Big Shanty Dist., an election was held to elect a Colonel for the newly created Regiment of Militia in the county, Lewis Stanley one of the managers.

1850 Census Big Shanty Dis. Cobb Co., Ga. Dec. 5th.

Lewis Stanley age 62 b. S.C.

Judith age 60 b. S.C.

Eliza H. age 15 b. Ga.

Rebecca Croue age 75 b. S.C. (widow)

It’s family tradition among our Stanley kin in Marietta, Ga., that Lewis Stanley, Jr., went to Va. and was living near Richmond during the Civil War, farming by that time. He would have been seventy-five years old.
