STONE CONNECTIONS, by Robert H. Stone. 929.273, St71sto.

SURRY COUNTY HERITAGE, NORTH CAROLINA., #687 The Stone Family. "The Stone name goes seven generations back of Surry County to a certain William Stone, who was born at Twiston in Lancashire, England, in 1490. His wife was Elizabeth Bradley, daughter of John Bradley and his wife named Ann Brathwaite. At that point the Stone ancestry branches off into the maternal lineages and goes back fourteen earlier generations through the Bradley, Sherbournes and Plumptons and into the English nobility in the person of Robert de Roos, who was one of the 25 English barons who forced King John to sign the Magna Charta at Runnymeade on June 15, 1215...That Robert de Roos married Princess Isabel, daughter of William the Lion, King of Scotland, and from him the Stone lineage goes on without a single break for another 14 generations, tracing through nobility and royalty to various nobles and kings of Italy, Lombardy and France to Emperor Charlemagne, who was crowned Holy Roman Emperor by the Pope at Rome on Christmas Day of the year 800....William Stone of Twiston and his wife, Elizabeth Bradley, were listed as the earliest Stone link in England prior to 1500, and they had a son named Richard Stone, born in Lancashier about 1540, and he married Isabel Girdler.
