Samuel married Mary Jane Moore (1838-deceased), also from Yorkshire, England, in Butler County on 7 Feb 1857. Mary Jane's parents and siblings had immigrated in the early 1850s and settled in Minnesota. My great-grandfather Eugene Anson Stead Sr. was the fifth of their six children.

My great-grandfather Eugene Anson (Ujance A) Stead was born about 1876 in Ohio. But between 1879-1880, the family had migrated far south to southeastern Georgia in Sweats, Ware County.

Before 1900, E.A., Sr. had moved to DeKalb County, near Atlanta where he raised his family with his wife, Emily Bertha White. They were married 10 Dec 1902 in Georgia and their children are:
