I believe he married Oliver's daughter Prudence. In 1850 Stephen, Prudence, and children lived in Ellicott. I also suspect that Stephen came from Washington Co, Ny because that is where Oliver Shearman came from. I would really like to know who Stephen's parents were, and if anyone has proof that Stephen married Prudence Shearman. Thank you.
