General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Stebbins

---

The earliest record of the Stebbins family is of Count Eustac, who was the inventor of the iron horseshoes, and frightened the Saxons away at the battle of Hastings, October 14, 1066. Ralph Peverall, son of Jean Peverall, married into the Ferress family and at one time owned about half of England. They went into rebellion and did not win out, and Lady Jane Gray knighted one of them and a town in England bears the name of Stebbins at the present time (1915).
Roland Stebbins, a descendant of Count Eustac, accompanied by his wife, Sarah, and their two sons, Thomas and John, also daughter, Elizabeth, left Ipswich, England, on the ship "Francis," November 20, 1634, and landed at Plymouth, Massachusetts, at the beginning of the year 1635.
There were one hundred and nine soldiers of this surname in the Revolutionary War, and many held official rank up to that of colonel.
The Stebbins family is related to three presidents of the United States: John Adams, John Quincy Adams and Grover Cleveland.

The great-grandfather of Edward Stebbins was the only person to escape uninjured at the time of the massacre of Bloody Brook. Many of the others were killed, and some were carried into captivity, which they suffered fourteen years.
