General Notes: Husband - John Stephens

---

His ancestors emigrated to America from Wales quite early in the seventeenth century, and settled in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and thence, somewhere about the middle of the century, he removed to what is now Washington township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania; the area being a part of what was then embraced in Westmoreland County. Whether he was born in America, or in Wales, is unknown. After removal to western Pennsylvania, they lived for some years in a blockhouse for protection from Indians. From the record on his tombstone in the Redstone cemetery, where he and large numbers of his descendants are interred, we find he was born in July, 1714, and died in 1806, aged ninety-one years and ten months.

He emigrated from Wales when seventeen years of age, and settled in eastern Pennsylvania, probably in Bucks County. [HFC 1882, 826]
