From:

TOWN OF SENECA

History of Ontario Co., NY

Pub. 1878, pg 145 – 147



The pioneer at Stanley’s Corners was Seth STANLEY, grandfather of the late Hon. Seth STANLEY. He was born in New Britain, Connecticut, March 18, 1751 and in 1796, settled on the farm now occupied by Elbert LAWRENCE on lot 71. Salma STANLEY, uncle of the late member of Assembly, was the pioneer on lot 73, on lands now owned by John R. MC CAULEY.

Mr. STANLEY, when the tocsin of war sounded in 1812, laid aside the implements of the husbandman and started for the battlefield. He held the rank of Captain, and was a good soldier and brave commander. During a severe engagement his sword was struck by a ball and bent, and the leaden missile lodged in the scabbard, thus preventing what otherwise would have proved a terrible wound. The souvenir of that conflict is still in the possession of the STANLEY family.


reference in Ontario County Historical Society surname folder (Stanley/Frantz #1091) to "History of Ontario County" by Everts - Seth Stanley was born in New Britain, Conn. Mar 18, 1751. In 1796, he settled on a farm, Lot 71.

From Geneva Palladium 14 May 1823
In Seneca, on Monday evening last, Deacon Seth Stanley, aged 72. Mr. Stanley was much esteemed as a christian and as a useful citizen. He emigrated from Connecticut to this country nearly thirty years ago, and has enjoyed an almost uninterrupted state of health throughout a life which has exceeded three score and ten; but his sudden death is calculated to impress upon all, the solemn truth, that "in the midst of life we are in death." He was engaged with his neighbors at a school district meeting, acting as clerk; and while in the act of entering his own re-election, he fell from his chair and expired. Repos.
