It seems that the belief is that the parents of John Stephens was William Stephens & Dorothy ? . Any thoughts on the info below. Couldn't this be my John Stephens [ 20 yrs old] with his parents? Has anyone found a death record for John or any records for the line that Elmer Stephens comes from that would help?
