Frederick Stover (son of Adam Stover Sr.) 1770-1857 married Mary Weaver 1771-1855. They were zealous members of the society of Friends, and were associated with the Lossings and several other members of that society in building the first meeting house for religious worship in the township, also one of the first school houses, although the school house was the property of Friends it was open to all and was attended by many who were not of that society. Their meetings for worship were well attended, and there can be no doubt but that the steadfast faith and upright living of those early Friends had a large moral influence upon the young and rapidly growing community.
The children of Frederick and Mary (Weaver) Stover were as follows:
Miranda 1794, Wesley 1797, John 1799, Gilbert 1800, Jesse 1803, Albin 1806, Sarah 1809, and Albert 1814.
John 1799 died when he was a young man.
Miranda 1794 married John Palmer. As there was no monthly meeting of Friends established in Norwich at that time in order to have the marriage performed according to the Friends order it was necessary to make the journey on horseback to Pelham, a distance of eighty miles.
Albert 1814 married Betsey Webster. The conveyance that took the young couple to the meeting house where they were married (while not as primitive as the white steer of John Alden and Priscilla's time) was a lumber wagon with a new wagon box made by the groom and furnished with the wagon chair of that day.

Albin Stover 1806 married Anna Willson
A letter which has been preserved for more than a hundred years, reveals the fact that the newly married couple made a trip to the home of their early childhood in Dutchess County and that a letter from Anna's youngest sister ELizabeth had advised relatives there that Anna and her Dutchman as she humorously styled him were about to visit them. In the reply letter appears the following extract "Anna's Dutchman as you term him is a very fine man and we were pleased to see them."
Albin inherited the Frederick Stover homestead where he and his family cared for the parents, Frederick and Mary, all their declining years. Each of whom reached the ripe age of well over four score years.

Sarah Stover 1809 married William Barker
Sarah (who was familiarly known as Sally) was only two years old when the family took the long and tedious journey by wagon from New York State, into Norwich when Norwich township was a dense forest. Although she was of such tender age, she survived the ordeal, and became a real mother in Israel.
William enjoyed relating an incident that occured in the beginning of their courtship. It so happened that a thirsty calf in trying to get to a spring of water got helplessly mired. Sally saw the plight of the calf and William passing along the read at the time took in the situation and went to the rescue, both together were able to pull the helpless creature on to solid ground. And so it happened that a luckless calf stuck in the mud, gave Sally and me our first experience in pulling together.

NOTE HARTLEY William Hartley married Ann Alberta Costain, NOT Mona Allan.
Ontario Marriages, 1869-1927 (familysearch.org). William James Hartley, age 39, son of William Hartley and Elizabeth L Mason, married 23 Jun 1915, in Brantford, Brant, Ontario, Canada, Ann Alberta Costain, age 34, daughter of William F Costain and Mary B Stover. From the image (Archives of Ontario) William was a farmer and born in New Durham. Ann was born in New Durham. Witnesses to the wedding were Guelielma S Cohoe and Miranda S Cohoe. Daniel B Cohoe, Baptist Minister from Burgessville officiated.
NOTE ANN ALBERTA Daniel Cohoe (who compiled this Stover list) knew about Ann Alberta (he officiated at her marriage ! ) but somehow in transferring the information to his grand-daughter Eleanor who organized and typed up the Stover list, she was missed. Thus Hartley became attached to the wrong wife, and his children incorrectly attributed to the wrong mother.
Ontario Births, 1869-1912 (familysearch.org) Ann Alberta Costin, born 5 Oct 1880, Burford, Brant, Ontario, Canada, daughter of William T Costin and Mary B Stover. From the image (Archives of Ontario) WIlliam was a teacher.
