Robert Howard Stamper, age 23 born in North Carolina, (circa 1869) lists his father as Mark and mother:Lucy Abbott. He married in NYC, was a machinist engineer; had four children,one son and three daughters. His son, Mark H. married and had children. I hope to connect as I am curious if his descendants left New York, headed out of area.
A connection through his wife.
I don't believe Lucy ever married Mark Stamper, however, I did find Robert Stamper as a child living with Lucy, in her mother's household in NC.
