s/o Robert Stephenson.

Born about 1755, probably in Maryland or Delaware. Living in Cumberland County, New Jersey when he married and later enlisted for service in the New Jersey Militia during the Revolutionary War.

NOTE: James had no middle name. In the late 1970s, someone misread the phrase from The Stephenson Story (G. Stephenson, 1976) "A great-grandson of James, Nathaniel Stephenson,..."; ignoring the commas, they used the name James Nathaniel Stephenson in a family tree and that error has been proliferated on the internet.
