acres, all of which is choice grain land, well watered and well improved with a

pioneers of Edwards County. William Stanley was born in Washington County, Ohio,
removed at an early age to Edwards County, where he held the office of justice
of the peace for twenty years, and where he died, February, 1892, being at the
time of his death in his seventy-seventh year. His wife was native of Wabash
County, Illinois, lived for a time in Ohio, and died about five years ago in the
same county as did her husband, and at about the same age. Mr. Stanley grew to
manhood in the county of his nativity, where he attended school held in a
primitive log house, one of his schoolmates being Elmina Gould, to whom, Aug 30,
1859, he was married. Mrs. Stanley’s father was Philander Gould, born in West
Virginia, but reared in New York. At the age of nineteen he removed to Edwards
County, where he spent the remainder of his life, dying in his seventy-fourth
year, in 1890. Mrs. Stanley’s mother, Sarah Knowlton in single life, was born
in Amherst, Massachusetts, in 1816, raised a family of ten children, to whom she
was ever a faithful and devoted mother, and died in 1876. Both she and her
husband were ambitious, energetic and relentless workers throughout their lives.
Soon after their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley migrated to Clay County, Illinois,
and in 1877 to Murray County, Minnesota, where they continued to make their home
until coming to Lincoln County, WA, in 1892. Arriving here they at once settled
on their present farm, seven miles north and two miles east of Mondovi, which at
that time was unimproved railroad land. With the scanty means at his command, Mr.
Stanley at once began earnestly to improve his land, and as times permitted
added to his original holdings until he now has four hundred acres, for the most
part agricultural land, adorned with a good seven-room house, commodious barn,
outbuildings, etc., all of which represent the work of his own hands. Besides
his home, he has a quarter section of land near Fruitland, Stevens County. Nine
children, six of whom are living, have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Stanley. The
names of those living are: Ira P. and William T., of Stevens County; and Edson
G.,
Elmer C., Florrie E. Reynolds, and Rollo C., all of Lincoln County. Both the
parents are devoted members of the United Brethren church and are actively
interested in educational matters. Mr. Stanley served in the Civil War, enlisting
in Company F, 143rd Illinois Regular Infantry, in April, 1864, and
was given an honorable discharge in the fall of the same year, his service
having been chiefly in the states of Tennessee and Arkansas. Mr. Stanley cast his
first vote for Abraham Lincoln, in 1860, and has since been an unswerving
Republican.” (History of Big
