PERMELIA CASEY
 
                Permelia Casey was born October 12, 1819 in Shelby County, Kentucky.  She was the daughter of Riley Casey, Jr. and Penina Pearce.  She died on April 4, 1849 in Scott County, Indiana and was buried in Craig Cemetery in the same county.  These dates are established by her tombstone.

                Permelia moved with her parents and other family members to Vienna Township, Scott County, Indiana in 1834.  Girls of her day worked in the home, received little formal education and generally married at a young age.  Permelia married before her fifteenth birthday.  On July 18, 1839 she married Thomas Hughbanks in Scott County, Indiana.  He must have died about December of 1840 as Permelia was appointed on December 14, 1840 to administer his estate.  He was buried in Craig Cemetery.  No other information is known about him, but there are other members of the Hughbanks family buried in Craig Cemetery, including a Thomas Hughbanks that served in the Civil War, 22nd Indiana Infantry, Company K.  It is possible that Permelia and Thomas had one or two children, but none are known.

                The young widow married again.  On January 11, 1842, Permelia married Milton Stogdill in Scott County, Indiana  This was his second marriage.  His first was to Rachel Adams on August 27, 1818 in Fleming County, Kentucky.  Milton was born on October 14, 1797 in Virginia.  While in Indiana he lived in Scott County and Jackson County.  He owned land and was a farmer.  Milton took over the administration of Permelia's first husband's estate.  One early land purchase was on November 15, 1843 from John Hughbanks, probably a relative of Thomas.  Milton purchased and sold other land in Scott County in the 1850's.

                Milton and Permelia had six children.  Permelia then died in 1849 and Milton buried her in Craig Cemetery beside her first husband.  He married again, this time to Jennette Ray Johnson on September 5, 1850, in Jackson County, Indiana.  Milton did not have any children by this third wife.  He lived until December 18, 1864 and was buried in Chestnut Ridge Cemetery in Jackson County, Indiana.  From his first two marriages, Milton fathered nineteen children.  Only the descendants of Milton and Permelia are covered in this narrative.  The name of Stogdill was spelled Stockdell in later generations.
