Rock Creek Church's records reflect only that he died after 1871 (though the below-cited book has him still alive in 1876). Son of James and Margaret (Clinton) Stephenson, brother of Benjamin Franklin Stephenson, founder of the Grand Army of the Republic.

From the book "History of the Early Settlers of Sangamon County, Illinois" by John Carroll Power and Mrs. S.A. Power, his wife (1876):

FINNIS E., born in Kentucky, raised in Sangamon county, and maried Maria Houghton. They had two children. FRANK died in infancy, and CHARLES lives with his father. Mrs. S. died November, 1857. F.E. Stephenson was Sergeant of Co.K., 33rd Ill. Inf. He lives at Chandlerville, Ill.
