Found: Quote: Roberta Inglet Thu Jan 8 23:13:49 1998. I am researching my great grandfather's line. I know he came orignally from Maine. His surname was changed from Stinchfield, to Stenchfield and finally his spelling Stanchfield. He lived in Saint Anthony with his mother Mary Stanchfield, wife, Elizabeth E. Avery Stanchfield, and his sister Amy. Amy was married to a Noyes. There also was a brother Charles. Any information on this family would be appreciated. I know the Noyes and Stanchfield's left to come to Montana around 1860. Thanks so much for your help. [email protected] Roberta Inglet 551 Douglas Avenue, Idaho Falls, Idaho 83401.: end of quote.
