I am looking for the generations before David Stone and any other information. He was born in 1835 and died in 1915. He lived in vestal and Binghamton, Broome County, New York. His wife's name was Rhoda and his mother's name was Mary Anne. I have no idea what his father's name was. Thanks for any assistance.
Yeah, so it's a tricky problem. I found four pieces of information:
WWI Draft Registration Card

Stone, David, age 44, Carpenter, born in New York as are both parents
Stone, Rhoda, age 41, wife, keeping house, born in New York as are both parents
Stone, Delphia, age 17, daughter, born in New York
Stone, Louisa, age 10, daughter, born in New York
Stone, David, age 4, son, born in New York
Stone, Mary Ann, age 72, mother, born in New York
The military card is for David the son of the man in the initial request. I saw the address for the 1900 Census and for the residence of the bride matched so those link up. The carpenter occupation and other pieces of information link the two census entries. Searched all over for the 1910 or 1870 census for these people, not sure why I'm not finding them, I'm usually pretty good at coming up with people after a bit of looking. I wonder why the 1900 census says she only had two children and they're both living when Delphia and Louisa would be 2+2=4 or so?
I'd like to know what the birthplace for the groom says. I read it as Doraville, but apparently that's not a place in New York (there is one in Georgia but that's a stretch of the laws of the universe and whatnot). Also, there's quite a bit of information on Henry P. Frederickson and his wife Polly from Broome County, New York out there on the internet but unless someone lied about their ages, this Frederick would have been a little too late to be one of their children.
I'd like to know what Rhoda's maiden name is here. I read it Ros but the only clear letter is really the R and after that it's kind of a short name with a vowel and a consonant most likely or possibly two vowels, like Roe or something.
PS - The two pictures actually go next to each other but I cut them up to post them on here.
