About Dorothy Stebbins

She was the daughter of John Alexander of Boston who was a soldier under Captain Lathrop and was the only man known to come out whole in the Bloody Brook Massacre near Deerfield, MA.

Captured by Indians in the 1704 Deerfield Massacre and Kidnapping.

Redeemed six days later.

John Stebbins, his wife, Dorothy, and their six children were all captured. Not one was killed, probably because daughter Abigail had married Jean de Noyon, a French coureur de bois, living in Deerfield, on 3 February 1704 -- 26 days before the fatal attack. John and son John Jr. were redeemed -- the rest of the children stayed in Canada, became Catholic and were naturalized. Apparently Jean had promised a better situation to his bride than he mastered, for in 1708 his wife petitioned for permission to take a mortgage to buy land in her own name to support her numerous family. Her siblings are poorly documented, but marriages for some of them are on record and the name Stebbins, in various spellings, is in the Montreal directory. http://www.crossmyt.com/hc/gen/deerfild.html#n13
