My mother, Lois Stone Peterson Robinson, is William Charles Stone and Jennie Young Stone’s only surviving child. She is the youngest of seven children, 82 years young, and lives in Cardston. I was very young when my family and I attended the Stone family reunion in Salt Lake City. I fondly remember Aunt Alice and Uncle George. My mom has compiled an extensive family history and she is an excellent resource, having travelled to Llantrisant, Wales and throughout England conducting research. She has written down many stories as they were told to her by her dad, my grandpa, W.C. Stone. She has also met and remained in contact with cousins of ours in Wales. If you would like any additional information, please email me and I will give her your information.

Thanks Uncle Don,
I have done some more hunting and have found that other members of the tree have also named children Tudor, so far I’ve found it through the Faull side they even have a child named Ivor. When I have more info about the connection I’ll be sure to let you know.

All I ever heard about the Tudor Dynasty monies was my dad, Ivor Tudor, had Tudor as his middle name because it was thought that the Stones my somehow receive some money from the heirs of the Tudor Dynasty.
One interesting piece of data you may not know is that when the Stone family arrived in Raymond they actually lived for two years in and underground dugout. The land was dug down and the earth was piled on the sides. When it was of sufficient depth, logs were placed across the top and clay and sod were placed on the roof. That would really be a tough place to live with all of those children during the heart of a Canadian winter. They must have had a fire pit and a chimney exhaust. I am not sure whether they had a dirt floor or wood.
Another minor item is that on the third sentence in “The New Country” section you have mistakenly used the word “Their” instead of “There.”
The website is wonderful and you and James need to be highly commended for the work you have done. It is awesome!

Don….
