With the construction of the Pennsylvania Road, Stoy decided to move to a place about ten miles farther west along the road where he received a warrant for more than three hundred acres of land. Here on this tract of land along the Pennsylvania Road, he founded the town of Stoystown in 1774. Stoy served as a volunteer in the Revolutionary War with the rank of corporal. It is thought that he also served in the French and Indian War, although the records are rather vague. Henry was born in 1747. Married Sally Stoy, daughter of Daniel M. Stoy, who sold lots and laid out the town of Stoystown about 1800, one of the oldest towns in Somerset Co., Pennsylvania. Daniel M. Stoy served as captain in Gen. George Washington's army for 12 months. He was discharged at Long Island, New York, July 1778. Later he moved to what is now Somerset Co., Pennsylvania. He was a justice of the peace. He served in the General Assembly in 1809–10 and 1813. He died 1834. D.A.R. marker on grave. Daniel Stoy, born in England, May 3, 1738, died January 11, 1835, in Stoystown, Somerset Co., Pennsylvania. He was married about 1759 to Sarah Higgins of Scotland (April 4, 1737 – October 31, 1818.
