....In 1889 Mr. Stockton was married to Miss Ellen Glennon, who was born in Garden Valley, Idaho, and is a daughter of Patrick Glennon, a native of Ireland, who went to California in 1849 and in the late '50s came to Idaho. He ran away from home when twelve years of age and crossed the ocean on a sailing vessel. He had a brother in Boston, Massachusetts, who had come to the new world several years before, and Patrick Glennon was determined to join him at any hazard. When he landed in Boston he was stolen by a man who represented himself as the brother of the boy and who kept him for two years before his real brother discovered his whereabouts and claimed him. In the meantime he had been subjected to all kinds of hardships and ill treatment. When he came to Idaho he worked in the mines of the Boise basin and then purchased a farm of two hundred acres in Garden Valley, upon which his remaining days were spent, his death occurring in 1909. His wife had passed away in 1896 (1897 per headstone).
He leaves five children, three sons and two daughters. Two of his sons, Ed and John, are residents of Garden Valley. The other son, James and the two daughters, Ellen, wife of John Stockton, and Ann, who is also married, are residents of Parma.
