EARLY JORDAN7 STANLEY (JAMES YOUNG6, JAMES5, SHADRACK4, SANDS3, JONATHAN2 STANDLEY, GEORGE1) was born March 04, 1850 in Gwinnett County, Georgia, and died August 27, 1927 in Gwinnett County, Georgia.

Notes for EARLY JORDAN STANLEY:
Early J. Stanley, Sr. was born March 4, 1850 at the home of his father, James Young Stanley, in Dacula, Georgia. He died at the age of seventy-seven years in 1927. On November 25, 1890 he married Flora Rebecca Ambrose. Flora was born in October 1858 and died at seventy-one years in 1929. All their children were raised on the 275 acre farm. They first purchased 130 acres in 1901, then bought 140 acres from the heirs of James Y. Stanley.
Early and Flora were parents to ten children. The family was born and reared on their farm of 275 acres. Gwinnett County land deeds indicate that Early Stanley purchased 130 acres in land lot 243 from Jane Loveless on April 11, 1901. His father, James Y. Stanley already owned 140 acres in the northeast corner of that land lot. In November 1913, the children (heirs) of James Y. Stanley sold the remainder of the land lot to Early for a sum of $1,500.
This home place has remained in the family since it was acquired by James Y. Stanley in the late 1800s. Only once was it in peril of being sold about 1930. Early's eldest son, Dolph, had returned from Miami in hopes of farming for a living. In his efforts he borrowed too heavily against the farm. Early's brother-in-law, Jack Sims, paid the outstanding debts and bought the farm. Toward recovering his investment he allowed the farm to be placed at auction. At that time it was purchased by J. D. Williams, who had married Early's niece, Buel. Uncle Jack then allowed Dolph to move his family into the Elisha Winn house, which he then owned.
