Mr. Stinton was born in Isleham, Cambridgeshire, England, May 9, 1833, and lived to the ripe age of 83 years, 9 months and 9 days. On November 9, 1855, he was united in marriage with Miss Susan Fletcher, and in the following year they came to America and located at Lyons, Iowa. After a few years they moved to Morrison, Illinois, where they lived until the year 1874. They then moved to Plymouth county, settling at Adaville, in Johnson township. They lived on this place over thirty years and saw the country develop from an unsettled, wilderness to the fertile lands and beautiful country homes it now has. Thirteen years ago Mr. and Mrs. Stinton retired from life and moved to Akron, which was their home until his wife and companion of more than sixty years passed away in July, 1916. Since that time he has been making a home with his son, Edward, at Adaville, where the accident occurred that resulted in his demise. There were six children born to this union-Walter, William and Mary, who died in infancy; Mrs. Ann Brown, the second daughter, died in 1890; Mrs. Alice Oaks, who died May 24, 1901; Edward Stinton, the only surviving child. He leaves, besides the son, who resides on the home place, six grandchildren and nine great grandchildren, besides many other relatives and a wide circle of friends, who mourn the loss of a good neighbor, a valued friend and Christian brother. Very early in life Mr. Stinton accepted the Christian faith and was an enthusiastic Christian worker all through life. He was a charter member of the United Brethren church at Adaville. It meant much in an early day to plant a church and keep it going, but what would this country have been if this had not been done? How much more is expected of us today who are enjoying the fruit of such sacrifice made by the early pioneers. Mr. Stinton had held office in the local church from that of janitor, class leader, steward, circuit steward, trustee, and has been a delegate to the annual conference a number of times. Always faithful in the discharge of his Christian duty, he also has always been a very liberal supporter of the church and benevolent interests. Funeral services were held in the M. E. church at Akron, February 19, after which the body was taken to his old home at Adaville, where the following day funeral services were held in the church were the deceased was a member for so long, and were conducted by a former pastor, Rev. H.G. Varce. A large congregation of neighbors and friends were present to pay a last tribute of respect. The floral offerings were very many and beautiful. Interment was made in the Adaville cemetery, beside his wife.
