Biography

Born 25 JAN 1692 Haverhill, Essex, Massachusetts, USA to John Stevens and Mary Chase. Benjamin married Abigail Bartlett and had a child. He passed away 12 OCT 1731 Derryfield Manchester, Hillsborough, New Hampshire, USA

“I see in Haverhill VR the baptism records on Dec. 4, 1737, for Anne, Keziah, Ezekiel and Miriam. I have noticed over time that baptism notices, especially of more than one child on the same date, usually mean the father moved away from the town. Benjamin Stevens, the supposed father of these children, moved to Methuen and had two children there. He died there Oct. 12, 1731.”
