    child may belong here. Cliff found enough evidence of his existence in the
    time and place than made this the most likely choice. Joseph COULD have been a
    son of Robert, John, Thomas or David; estimated birth 1753; m. Elizabeth
    c1775 and died in Straban Twsp, York Co., before 13 APR 1784. Estate bond
    signed by brother, Thomas, 27 APR 1787.  This is from "Probate File of Joseph
    Stockton", Office of the Clerk of Orphans Court, York Co., Courthouse. The
    only document in file was an estate appraisal dated 13 APR 1784. No
    genealogical data available. "Letters of Administration for Thomas Stockton
    for Estate of Joseph Stockton", 27 APR 1787, Will Book C, p 172.

     "Joseph Stockton was born in PA, and died in York Co., PA in 1784. Joseph
was an ensign in the Revolution; he married and had a son. Since he died before
his father, he was not included in his father's will, but neither was Joseph's
son. On 27 APR 1787, Thomas Stockton signed the bond for Joseph's estate. On 15
MAR 1791, John Stockton, minor son (over 14) of Joseph, dec'd, late of Menallen
Twsp, requested the appointment of his step-father, Samuel Nelson, of Hamilton
Twsp, Franklin Co., PA, as guardian. [dw]

     A-1791, pg 26; 15 MAR 1791, John Stockton, minor son of Joseph Stockton

     Samuel Nelson, his stepfather, of Hamilton Twsp, Franklin Co., be appointed
     his guardian. (8-5, endnote 41)
Cliff has assigned the above Samuel Nelson as a child of Isabella (Stockton)
and John Neilson, born c1769, d aft 1803.  This does not seem possible.  Samuel
Nelson/Neilson, assuming the birth estimates are correct, would have been only
22 years old in 1791; John Stockton, 14.  To be the Stepfather of John, he
would have had to marry John's mother, Elizabeth, after her 2nd husband, Isaac
McKinley died in 1788.  Elizabeth would have been approximately 12 years older
(b approx. 1757 to m c1775) than Samuel Neilson.  Further, it would mean that
Samuel would have married his Uncle's widow.  John Stockton was already
Samuel's cousin (his mother's nephew).  MORE LIKELY, his name really was NELSON
and he had no connection to the NEILSON/NELSON's who married Stockton's.
