Jeremiah Stevens, son of David, married Nancy, born Sept. 11 1795, died March 17, 1833. A headstone in a private burial plot on the farm of Charles Hinkernell in the Town of Chester marks the grave of "Nancy, wife of Jeremiah Stevens." It seems probable that Jeremiah was buried beside her and that his stone has been lost, as all the stones are broken and scattered.
