While several of my Saturday Surname lists (HESS, NELLIS and YOUNG) had Stone Arabia mentioned, there are many other surnames in my tree with connections to that Mohawk River town as well.  Perhaps some of the listed names, might be useful to you, if so, please write me for more information. First list includes those married there, second list either those born or died there.

In addition, I will be posting my SCRAMBLING / SCRAMLIN surnames, many with Stone Arabia ties.
