Braddock F. Stocking was born in Madison County, New York, August 16, 1831, and died at his home at 220 Ave. D April 25 at the age of 90 years and eight months. He was mustered into the United States service at Fort Snelling, MN, November 6, 1862, and was a privateof Captain Dwight W. Allen's Company I, First Regiment Minnesota mounted rangers under command of Colonel Samuel McPhail. He was honorably discharged at Fort Snelling, MN, April 18, 1865 by reason of disability. Mr. Stocking was married at LaCrosse, WI, May 29, 1854 to Mary F. Buley, who passed away four years ago. He was a member of Morton Post #10, G.A.R. Department of Washington and Alaska, and formerly a member of J. F. Mortz Post #144, New Auburn, MN. He held public office as Chairman of the Board of county commissioners of Sibley County, MN, and came to Snohomish County nineteen years ago. He wasa man of strong vitality and until about two months ago kept his eyesight and intellect to a wonderul degree. He was a great reader and could always discuss current events. In the passing of Comrade Stocking the community has lost a good father and neighbor, and a good citizen is the opinion.
Surviving Mr. Stocking are two daughters, Mrs. Ed G. Ramsdell (Eva) and Mrs. John H. Shadinger (Hattie), both of Snohomish; four grandchildren, Mrs. John Johnson, Gail and Max Shadinger, and Mrs. C. McCready, and two great grandchildren. Funeral services will be held at C. H. Bakeman undertaking parlors Thursday at 2 p.m., the Rev. D. A. Storey officiating. Interment will be in the G.A.R. cemetery.
G.A.R. NOTICE
All members are requested to meet at Bakeman's parlor, Thursday at 2 p.m. to attend the funeral of Comrade Stocking.
4. Braddock probably conveniently moved his marriage back 2 years when he moved from La Crosse, WI to Oronoco, Olmsted County, MN, so as to make his first child (who died young) legitimate. The marriage record clearly lists the marriage date as 29 MAY 1856.
