Stephen was listed on the tithables in Goochland at thirteen as a tobacco farmer with his father, John. Stephen later moved with his family to Bedford Count and later to Henry (now Franklin). Many tobacco farmers moved when the land played out and cheap land was offered further west. They moved to Kentucky about 1793 and settled in Pulaski County. They were heavily involved with the Baptist Society and were charter members of the White Oak Baptist Church, donating the land for the church building. Stephen was an active supporter of the Continental Army with goods and is listed as a Patriot for the revolution. He and Anna are buried in the Lee cemetery in Nancy, KY.
