Daniel Fahrney Stouffer married Drusilla Kennedy Chaney, daughter of Ezekiel Chaney and Jane Rowe, on 4 November 1858. Rev. Daniel Fahrney Stouffer died on 7 March 1898 at Benevola, Washington Co., MD, at age 59 Mr. Stouffer was a child when his parents settled in Washington County, Md. Was educated in the public schools near his home at Boonsboro; at sixteen he left school and began reading medicine under his uncle, Daniel Fahrney, M.D., but soon tired of study and at eighteen went to the west with a surveying corps, here he found life on the plains full of change and adventure. After returning to Maryland, he began to prepare for the ministry and was elected about 1862, in charge of Mt. Zion, Long Meadows and Beaver Creek, and served them for more than 30 years. He was endowed with great magnetic power and drew all men to him; was an eloquent speaker and did a great deal of evangelistic work. His voice was exceptionally fine, not only in speaking but in singing and he taught singing classes in all parts of that section. He was very popular and many were proud of being married by him. He was a stockholder and director of Juniata College at Huntingdon, Pa. -- from Williams' History of Washington County, Md.
In business he (Rev. Daniel F. Stouffer) was active and energetic. In some way, out of necessity or otherwise, he was called to "cry" a sale (this was before his election to the ministry), and from that day to the day of his death he was in constant demand. Over a wide territory he traveled, day after day, even for months in the winter and early spring. No weather daunted and no difficulty discouraged him. He was true to his employers and their patrons, and no one doubted his word. I have known him to sell thousands of dollars' worth of livestock and farm implements and then ride a dozen or twenty miles to his home or preach at night and be ready for his duty the next morning. He was a great horseman, and was never so pleased as when training and subduing the worst horse in the community. He lived in the midst of a rich farming community and early introduced improved machinery, which he sold in great quantity with little effort. His success was to be accounted for only on the ground of the entire confidence in him.
"And when life came to a sudden close in the midst of his labors and usefulness the whole country mourned. He lies buried in sight of the place where he was born, and a generation that came to the church under his preaching, who were married under his benediction, and whose ancestors he buried, live to bless his memory." -- W. B. Stover, of India, in "Some Who Have Led."¹ He was buried in March 1898 at Mt. Zion (Fahrney's) Church Cemetery, Mapleville, Washington Co., MD.
