Daniel was a Union Soldier in the Civil War and enlisted at Columbia, Kentucky, in October, 1861, as a Corporal in Company E, 9th Regt. of Ky. Volunteer Infantry, and was honorably discharged on the 5th day of August, 1862 as a 2nd Lt. His personal description at enlistment was 6'1", fair complexion and blue eyes. He was a pensioner under certificate #427.934. In the 1880 Census, Daniel is listed as being in the gold fields, though we don't know whether it was in California or Colorado, and Mary is listed as the head of the household. He lived in the Poplar Springs community for many years, and was highly instrumental in building the Poplar Springs Baptist Church, formerly the old Fallen 'Timber Church.

"DIED"

"Mr. Daniel J. Stout died at his home in the Oleoak country last Wednesday of causes incident to old age, he being eighty years old at his death. Before advancing years disabled him, Mr. Stout was known as the best shot, and greatest squirrel hunter in Barren County, always shooting his squirrel through the head with a rifle. He was a quiet, good man and citizen, and a member of the Baptist church.

"The remains were interred at Poplar Springs Thursday last."
