His name appears as Stothard M Anderson on his tombstone.
Kevin Avery the volunteer who took the photograph says "It was an incredibly interesting old Amish Cemetery..... out in the middle of nowhere! I could not find his wife, though there was an overturned stone right next to his. The tree that is next to his stone has totally moved his stone, and even grew through and displaced the little wrought-iron fence that once encircled the graves."

Stoddard, born in Lisburn, County Antrim, Ireland to Wm. Anderson. With Robert Emmet, he took a leading part in the rebellion against the British goverment in years 1802-03. At this time he had at least 2 children - Mary and Sarah. Mary was lost at sea with her husband in 1830. In 1804, a price on his head, Stoddard fled Ireland for America.

Excerpt from the Portrait and Biographical Album of Jefferson and Van Buren Counties – 1890
[ bio on grandson Levi, son of John F. Anderson]
"…..Stoddard M. Anderson, the grandfather of our subject, established the family in America. He left Ireland, the land of his nativity in the days of his young manhood and crossed the Atlantic to America. He settled in Pennsylvania, and there married Ellen Johnson . ...* ...... His wife's relatives were also in the same struggle. Mr. Anderson was a mechanic by trade, and spent the greater part of his active life in the Keystone State. In 1831 he removed to Ohio, where his death occurred in 1862. His wife survived him and died near Birmingham Iowa."

*Omitted above, the bio erroneously states that Stoddard Moore Anderson served in the Revolutionary War. He was too young and he had not yet arrived in America.
