According to many resources, Alexander Stephens was born in and then moved from Scotland to Pennsylvania. Later moving to Georgia. One source, History of Perry County, Pennsylvania by Harry Harrison Hain records on page 624 that Stephens probable death year was 1814. According to the grave marker of Stephens he died in March 1813. However the will of Stephens was found among papers belonging to grandson Alexander H. Stephens, and it was dated Nov. 1813. So this information leads to the suggestion that his death date was in fact March 1814.

Someone merged memorials for two different persons: Alexander Stephens and Alexander Stinson, Jr .
Name: Alexander Stinson Jr
Birth Place: Albemarle County, Virginia, United States of America
Death Date: 1813
Death Place: Lincoln County, Georgia, United States of America
