Dr. John Benjamin Stout was a professor of medicine at Transylvania University, Lexington, KY. He died at his lovely nearby home, "Belfry House." He had five children by his first marriage to Rosanna (or Rose Anna) Naghel. The youngest of these children was older than his second wife, nee Mary Jane ("Molly" "Mamie") Horine. Despite their age difference, they had a very happy marriage. Dr. Stout had degrees in dentistry, pharmaacy, medicine, and was a qualified surgeon. He held 14 diplomas (some honorary), and was a graduate of the University of Vermont, the University of New York, the University of Pennsylvania, and others. He practiced in New York and in Kentucky and taught in the Transylvania University College of Medicine in Lexington, KY. He married (second) Mary Jane ("Molly," "Mamie") Horine, of Fayette County, KY, 5 April 1869 at the home of her parents near Slickaway, KY, in a ceremony performed by Rev. Clark King. Their children were Lula (Laura James), Stella Augusta, and John Benjamin. Dr. Stout was near 60 years of age at the beginning of the Civil War and was sympathetic to the Southern cause; he was said to have contributed generously to the Confederacy. His second wife is buried in the Sanders Lot, the lot of the family of her second husband, Samuel Murrell Sanders, in the Bellevue Cem., Danville, Boyle, KY.
