Biographical notes:

J.W. Stow was a businessman who worked for Charles D. Nash in Middlebury in the 1840s and then moved to New York City around 1847; David Stow (d. 1778) settled in Weybridge with his family before the Revolution, and was captured along with his teen-age son Clark and held prisoner in Canada, where David died in 1778. Clark (d. 1839) returned to Weybridge and was reunited with the rest of his family following the war. Milo Stow (1793-1865) was one of Clark's sons; due to changes in the border between Weybridge and New Haven his home was sometimes in one and sometimes in the other. Moses Stow (1769-1849) settled in New Haven, Vt., around 1796. His son Loyal W. Stow (1814-1886) owned a farm and creamery in New Haven, as well as serving as County Commissioner.
