ALFRED WORTHINGTON STONE was born January 30, - 1873, in Charleston, South Carolina, one of the two sons of William and Mary (Taylor) Stone, who were married October 26, 1869. His first American paternal ancestor was Simon Stone of Essex County, England, who settled in Watertown, Massachusetts, in 1635. His maternal ancestors were also English,
Robert Taylor of Cheshire, England, having settled in Pennsylvania in 1681. Bayard Taylor is a relative. William Stone was born September 4, 1842, in East Machias, Maine. During the Civil War he was an officer in the United States Volunteers and the Regular Army; and after leaving military service in 1870 he was a lawyer in South Carolina, where he served as United States Attorney, and United States Attorney General. In 1877 he moved to New York City, where he died May 22, 1897. Mrs. William Stone was born June 2, 1842, in Kennett, Pennsylvania.
Stone prepared at Phillips-Andover, and in college received a second dispute appointment in both Junior and Senior years. For two years after graduation he was with the Edison Electric Illuminating Company in New York City. The next summer was spent in the publishing house of J. A. Hill & Company; and then he gave his attention to the real estate business until March, 1898, when he entered the treasurer's office of the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad Company in New York City. In June, 1906, he was made transfer agent of the stocks and bonds of the various railroad companies of the New York Central system situated west of Buffalo, New York: the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railway Company; the Michigan Central Railroad Company; the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Railway Company; the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railway Company; the Lake Erie & Western Railroad Company; the Canada Southern Railway Company, etc. He is also transfer agent of various up-state electric companies: the New York State Railways, the Rochester Gas & Electric Corporation, the Rutland Railroad Company, and the Mohawk Valley Company. During the period of Government control and operation of the railroads, he remained with the corporations. He belonged to the police auxiliary of the Home Defense League of New Rochelle, New York. Besides the interests just mentioned, Stone acts as special auditor for the New York Botanical Garden; is a member of the American Museum of Natural History, the Navy League, the American Forestry Association, the National Child Labor Committee, and the Archaeological Society of New Mexico. He is enrolled as a Republican, and belongs to the New York City Yale Club. He has attended three reunions—the Decennial, the Vicennial, and the Twenty-fifth Year Reunion.
He thus describes his career: "My career of late seems to have been in the category of those happy nations that have no history. Since making the plunge from the hectic existence of the metropolis to the suburban simplicity of New Rochelle some five years ago, I have become a regular commuter of the 'Oh, Man!' variety and the 'Handy man around the house,' so faithfully depicted by our distinguished fellow-townsman and cartoonist Mr. Briggs. I have also discovered within me a latent attraction for the soil, hitherto suppressed by an urban envh'onment, and during the open season put in many of my spare hours in my garden-patch,
cultivating the bountiful bean and odoriferous onion, and, incidentally, at times the backache. If I cannot rival the old gentleman with the wheelbarrow on the seed catalogue cover, I manage to reduce the altitude of the cost of living to some extent, and to maintain a perfect figure, husky appetite, and sound slumber. When vacations come I try to travel around a bit and see something of the country, being especially partial to the Rockies and the country of the South West, and the Southern Appalachian mountain region."
On April 18, 1906, he was married in Kansas City, Missouri, to Sarah Elsa, daughter of Homer and Laura (Coates) Reed, and a sister of Kersey Coates Reed, '02, and Homer Reed, Jr., '10 S. Their son, Homer Reed, was born June 10, 1907, in New York City.
