His son, Abraham, appears with Daniel in the 1800 and 1801 record; is absent or not reported in 1802 and 1803; reappears in 1805; was again absent in 1803 through 1807; and was a resident again in 1808. Another son, Charles Stark, was reported as a resident in 1802, probably the year he reached the age of 21; and was reported every year after through 1809."

History of Montgomery County, Kansas. 1903. Page 479-480
CHARLES M. STARK— Charles M. Stark may clearly be classed among the old settlers of the county, as he came here away back in 1868. Those were the days when the "noble Red Men" still trod the prairie and when
the few whites of good character needed to stand firm for the "majesty of the law" against half-breed cow thieves and renegade white men, whose absence from civilization became necessary on account of their malodorous reputation. lint with the settling of such men in the county as our subject, conditions gradually changed, and long ere the last decade of the century opened, Montgomery county came to he regarded as one of the most orderly communities in the state. Mr. Stark resides in Louisburg township, on his original pre-emption of one hundred and sixty acres, which evidences in its neat and well-kept appointments the great amount of care lavished upon it.
The birth of Mr. Stark occurred in Scott county. Indiana, in 1838. His father, Nathaniel B. Stark, was a son of Charles Stark, one of the very earliest settlers in Scott county, where he located, after the removal of the Indians, in 1814. He had resided,
prior to that time, in Henry county. Kentucky. Nathaniel B. Stark was born in the latter state and was but seven years of age when his parents moved into Indiana. Here he grew to manhood amid the scenes of
pioneer life and, at maturity, married Margaret Coons. In 1849, the family moved out to Edgar county, Illinois, where the father
plied his trade of carpenter until his death in 1861. There were seven children born to our subject's parents, as follows: Malinda. who married W. W. Crossfield and is a widow, residing in Chautauqua county, Kansas; Martha. Mrs. E. M. Horton, Chautauqua county; Sarah, wife of W. H. Beam
[Dean], of LaHarpe, Kansas; Jane, who married James M. Stark, and resides in Elk county, Kansas; Nathaniel J., of San
Diego, California ; Josiah M., residing in Louisburg township, and Charles M., who constitutes the subject of this sketch.
Charles M. Stark was twelve years of age when his father's family settled in Illinois, and from that time until his thirtieth year he continued to be a resident of Edgar county. In 1860, he was happily joined in marriage with Elizabeth, daughter of Peter and Sarah (Shawler) Bartmess. people of Kentucky origin. Mrs. Stark was born in Edgar county, Illinois. In the Spring of 186)8. Mr. Stark and his family, together with his mother and brothers and four sisters, settled in Montgomery county, Kansas. It is simple justice to say that Mr. Stark has had a most wholesome influence on the development which has come to the county since that early day, and fully merits the esteem in which he is held. He and his family have been supporters and members of the Christian church for years, and have entered into the social life of their community in its varied activities with a spirit of much helpfulness.
To our subject and wife have been born children as follows: John F., born November 18, 1864, resides in the Indian Territory, married Josie Stewart, and has four children : Clara, Marian T., Bertha May and Buelah; Harmon F., born December 6, 1867, married Maggie Paris. They reside in Chautauqua county, Kansas, with their children: Hattie, Charles, Alvin, Clarence and Oscar; Early A., born
March 3, 1876, married Mamie Hope, and has a daughter. Eline, and resides in Montgomery county.
