Surnames: STEPHENS, HOLLAND Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Ua.2ADI/408.4.1 Message Board Post: Of what time period are we speaking? My Doc Stephens was b. 1820-1823 in TN and Jane was b. abt 1825 in NC. They both appear to have died about 1900 or so likely in DeKalb County, AL. They did have one son William John Stephens who went back to Dade County and most of those still in that area are either his or Shadrac's descent as far as I can tell. I recently visited Gib Dock Cemetery and I don't remember finding my ancestor, but could have missed his grave, I guess. I have never seen Jane referred to as Denie in any of the records (land and censuses mostly). Let me know more about Doc and Denie; even if not my direct line, I'm guessing they're related.
