NOTE: George STOFFOLD, ABT 1623 - 08 NOV 1665

Referred as George (Stoffold, Stobbold, Stovell, Stoval), he
   was born around 1623 in Albury, co. Surrey, England. Although
   his birth and baptismal records are not known, he is connected
   to his father through brother Williamās Will. George married
Joan Tickner before October 15, 1653. Joanās mother, Millicent
Tickner filed a claim on a cottage and garden after the death
   of her husband, Bartholomew. The lord of the manor of Albury
granted her copy hold tenure of the property to be past on to
   her heirs after her death. She died after getting the property,
   and it was turned over to George and Joan. Due to financial
difficulties, they were unable to pay a "fine" or fee for
permission to enter upon the land, and it was turned back over
   to the lord of the manor. George was also fined for failing to
attend the lordās manor court, a standard duty for one who was
   a copyright tenant (Oct. 7, 1657, Apr. 19, 1659, Apr. 29, 1661
   & Oct. 19, 1663).

George and Joan possibly became Quakers and the Church of
England records show they did not attend church for over 3
months (Easter 1661 term of Surrey Quarter Sessions-criminal
court of the county). The sheriffās response to the 5 separate
writs on April 1661
indicates that he could not find George. George was cited on
Easter Term of 1662 and also on April 28, 1663 for not
attending. Throughout all this, thereās no record he was
punished for the offenses. At this time the Church of England
   was the only recognized church in England and attendance was
mandatory.

George live in Albury parish according to the hearth tax roll
   of Albury, dated Lady Day (March 25, 1664) with one hearth
assessed from him. Despite Quaker beliefs, he was
buried in Albury on November 8, 1665 with all rites of the
Church of England. On May 7, 1675, his widow asked the Friendās
congregation to help find her son a job. €91

NOTE: John STOVALL, 1702 - 09 JUL 1781

"John is the first Stovall of this lineage to be born on
American soil around 1706, in Henrico County, Virginia. He
married Dorcas in 1732. He owned land patents in Goochland
County, Virginia, Lunenburg County, North Carolina, and
Granville County, North Carolina. His last home was in an area
near Grassy Creek in Granville County, North Carolina. During
   his lifetime, these holdings grew from 300 to 2,400 acres.

John is listed on October 8,1754 in the General Muster of the
Militia in Captain John Sallis's Company. He served in this
unit with his sons John, Jr. and Bartholomew. This under
command of Colonel William Eaton, was a regiment of 734
men/officers representing all able-bodied men of Granville Co.,
   N. Carolina.

Although too old to serve in the American Revolution, he was
granted Patriot status for contribution of food and shelter to
   the Continental Army. Living along County Line District of
Granville County in 1777, he and his sons took the Oath of
Allegiance to the State of North Carolina.

State Line, hear State Road 1448 and north of the town of
Stovall (located on Highway 15, named for a descendant) and
ends west of the intersection of State Roads 1317 and 1325.
There is a Grassy Creek Recreation Area located on the north
side of the Lake. Coincidentally, there is a Joe Road within a

family are linked later by marriage." €91

NOTE: George STOVOLD, 1588 - 1633

George, born around 1588/90 in co. Surrey, England, married
Margaret Farley on October 11, 1612. She was born in 1593 to
Richard and Elizabeth (Aldridge) Farley alias Deane of Farley
Green (village), Albury, co. Surrey, England.

   A blacksmith by trade, George lived in Wonersh, Surrey County.
   He and others benefited from the sale of the estate left behind
after the death of Margaretās father. This included two
messuages (houses and lots) and gardens with 7 acres of land in
Farley Green and Albury. George and Margaret stayed in Wonersh
long enough to have their third child Anne baptized.

George was named as executor of his brother Johnās Will on
December 15, 1632. Later, they moved back to Albury where
George died before February 26, 1657/8, the date at which his
wife is listed as a widow with a son named William in Albury.
Most of the records from this period are missing due to the
Chasm in the Albury Register.

George and Christopher Lidger of West Clandon, co. Surrey, were
indicted for an alleged assault on John Nipps of Albury. The
assault was alleged to have happen on March 19, 1612/13 in
Albury, but George was found not guilty on July 1, 1613 at
Southwark. At the general criminal court hearings, Nipps was
accused of attacking George on October 20, 1611 at Shere.

Three of George and Margaretās children have baptismal records,
   the other two are listed in the Will of William Stoffold. €91
