John Stackhouse moved to Pennsylvania, arriving in Oct. 1682 on the HMS Lamb, one of 23 ships that came with William Penn. The Stackhouse' were a prominent family in England before moving to North America. As a result, the Stackhouse' became a leading family in 'The Colonies'. Clarinda Stackhouse is a direct descendant of John Stackhouse. She is a great-great-great-granddaughter of his. She would have been a lady of wealth, substance, and education. Her first marriage to William Anthony has very little documentation with the exception of their marriage application/certificate and the birth of their two children. There is more information on their son James William than there is on William.
The more surprising is her marriage to Samil S. Baxter. Four years after the death of her husband and being 31 years old, she marries 17-year-old Samil S. Baxter on December 17, 1857. At the time of this marriage Christana is 12 and James is 10 years old. The question comes to mind, did she marry for youth or for a playmate for her children. This marriage produced four children with two of them dying in infancy, Arlando T. and Orvil T. After the Civil war Samil came home with a permanently injured right wrist and sired my great-grandfather, Samuel Harry Baxter. Being quite young, I (C. E. Jantz), was able to meet him about a year before he passed.
