Bailey Ranes Stone, married Dulcena Boyd, 1844, in Carrollton, Carroll Co., Arkansas. They had seven - ten children. Bailey was a farmer. He belonged to the Masonic Lodge.

Following information was supplied by Beverlee Freyberg:
When he was 15, his parents died when they drank tainted water in a wagon encampment (perhaps Yocum, AK where two unnamed graves were discovered). He was adopted by folks named Boyd and later married their daughter. He later traveled to Sparta, White Plains, TN to claim inheritance via his deceased parents. No one there believed he was who he said he was, but a slave there recognized a birthmark she had seen on him when he was a baby.

The symbol on his headstone is that of a Freemason.
