Notes about John Stephens and Nellie Rardin from J. Wright - "We have little or no information regarding John Stephens before his marriage to Nellie Rardin.  Family history indicates he was the pastor at Island Creek Baptist Church on 12 mile road (Onetonta Road/Washington Trace Roads) in Campbell Co. KY.  The church's (est. 1799) congregation is still active and the graves of John Stephens and Nellie Rardin still exist in an ancient cemetery named Island Creek Cemetery.  Due to many cases of high water from 12 Mile Creek itself, all of the graves have been washed away except for John and Nellie's."

John Stephens - Among the early Pioneers of Campbell County (KY) who were here in 1793 when this part of Kentucky East of the Licking River was Mason County, John Stephens stands out in his accomplishments among the others together with Jacob and Timothy Reardon, Solomon Truesdale and David Curd whose lands adjoining and John Beall, James and John Miller who established Ten Mile Station. And working with William Kennedy they purchased the land under contract and settled that part of Campbell County from Ten Mile Road to California Crossing and from The Ohio River to the Alexandria Flagg Springs Road Route 10. Jacob Reardon's land extended from the Ohio River to Timothy Reardons whose tract extended to Washington Trace bisected by Carthage New Richmond Road. John Stephens tract on the West side of Washington Trace extending west to Solomon Truesdales line and bisected by the original Washington Trace now the Carthage Road to the Flagg Spring Road and North to 12 Miles Creek or Wells Creek.
