  • Notes 
    • !AFN: 92FP-SS !BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION:
      !AFN: 92FP-SS !BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION: He probably lived at Stow, Massachusetts until after his majority, as he owned land there. He removed to Plainfield about 1699, where he is called "senior" to distinguish him from his brother-in-law Thomas Stevens (called Jr. or 2nd), son of Henry Stevens of Stonington, CT. He was made an ensign in the militia in 1717 and was thereafter referred to in records as "Ensign Thomas Stevens." He was Deputy to the General Court of Connecticut in 1725 and 1730. Per ""The Stevens Family: Descendants of the brothers Thomas and Cyprian Steevens," compiled by Edwin Henry Stevens and edited by Elizabeth Stevens Polk (Windsor, VT, 1941). !LAND RECORDS IN PLAINFIELD, CT. INVOLVING THOMAS STEVENS: Plainfield, CT got off to a difficult start when two tribes of Indians sold the same land to two different groups of settlers. Finally, in 1704, twenty four property owners agreed to throw all holdings into common ownership and to reapportion by lot. John Fellows, Stephen Hall, Thomas Stevens, Sr., and Thomas Stevens who was son of Henry Stevens and husband of Ruth Hall were named in the list.Thomas Stevens Sr. was one of those selected to lay out 40 lots of 100 acres each Plots of land allotted to Thomas Stevens, Sr. were recorded in 1706 and 1707. Another division was made in 1707, which include land exclusive of the meadow and the general field being divided into five fields called "Eights." Per "LYBERTIE," by Henry Vernon Hall (privately printed by author, Salt Lake City, UT, 1975).
