Amos Stoodley was born in Hounsfield, N.Y., Apr 13, 1845, and died at Adams Center, N. Y., Jan 31, 1930. Mr. Stoodley was a son of William and Elizabeth Lane Stoodley, natives of Devonshire, England, who came to the United States in 1832 and settled near Sackets Harbor. He married Miss Frances M. Clarke of Adams Center on Feb 4, 1868. One son, Clark A. Stoodley, was born to them. Mrs. Stoodley died on Oct 22, 1906. In 1909 he married Mrs. Betsy Morgan of Brookfield, N. Y., who died in 1919. A farmer by profession, Mr. Stoodley has spent most of his life on a farm near Adams Center. About a year ago his health failed and he went to live with his son, at whose home he died. He was a very rugged man, never having been treated by a doctor for sickness until his last illness. He was a member of the Adams Center Seventh Day Baptist Church and a constant attendant until failing health prevented his coming. He will be missed not only as a member, but also as an official, being the senior deacon of the church. Surviving are his son, Clark A. Stoodley; one brother, Charles Stoodley, Sackets Harbor; one sister, Mrs. Minerva Bristol, Sackets Harbor; two grandchildren, G. Kent Stoodley, San Luis Obispo, Calif., and Ross Stoodley, Adams Center; and several nephews and nieces. Funeral services were held at the home of his son on February 2, 1930, his pastor, L. F. Hurley, officiating. Burial was in Union Cemetery.
