Les, Dale & other Stearns descendants,
I descend from Isaac Stearns, Jr. and Sarah Beers.  I haven't really done any work on this line myself, and the information that I do have comes from the book Genealogy and Memoirs of Isaac Stearns and His Descendants by Mrs. Avis Stearns Van Wagenen, published 1901.  I found the book through Heritage Quest.
