My records show that their father, David Carson Stevens (sometimes spelled Stephens) had a brother, Henry S. Stevens, who was born in 1818 and married Margaret Lanthim. (This is probably who Rebecca called "Uncle Henry".) But...I have a total of 4 Henry's, so this must have been a family name. I have a Henry C., born ca 1869, married twice (but not to a Goforth) and having a total of 16 children. Our line lived in the Bunker, MO, area. Apparently Stephens was the original spelling because most of the info in VA is spelled this way.
