There were three John Stevens (Stephens) who died early (between 1813-1824)in Caldwell County. A John Stephens died in 1813 without a will and Elijah Stephens was the Administrator of his estate. An Inventory for a John Stevens on Nov. 22, 1815 in Caldwell County and it mentions Elizabeth Stevens (possibly John's wife) and Sallie and Jesse Stevens are also mentioned. A John Stevens will dated Feb. 29, 1824 and recorded Aug. 16, 1824. Polly Stevens (widow of son Moses Stevens). After decease of Polly Gr. children to have property. I don't have copies of the original estate papers of the first John Stephens where Elijah Stephens is the Administrator, but I do plan on getting them sometime in the near future. I believe this John was Elijah's father and the John Stevens who died in 1815 was possibly Elijah's brother. Elijah's grandson and my 2nd great grandfather Robert Criswell Stevens was a physician. One of Elijah's son's, I think it was Harrington Stevens (your Littleton's brother), was also a physician. I live in Michigan, my father was born in Caldwell County, Kentucky and moved to Michigan after he graduated high school.

My family believes that what you say is true. This is the information that my great aunt Lala (now passed away) gave me. But, we have no documentation. Do you have documentation showing Elijah's father's name? and any information about his first wife? BTW, do you live in TX or KY? I am originally from MS, but now I live in CA. I have had a DNA test that showed I am related to descendants of Emmanuel Stevens now living in TX. Interestingly enough, Emmanuel lived in the Charlotte NC, (northern SC) area at the same time as Elijah. The DNA test also showed that I am related to a Jonathan Stevens who lived in CN in the mid 1600s. This means that either, the three of us (descendants of Emmanual, Jonathan, and Elijah) were descendant from the first member of the family to come to America, or we are all descendant of someone who lived in England before they came to America.
