↑ The birth estimate of about 1713 is taken from Source:Holman, Mary Lovering. Ancestry of Colonel John Harrington Stevens and His Wife, Frances Helen Miller, p. 51. Phineas is not a subject of in-depth study and so the estimate may not have much basis other than the father remarrying by 1715, and the general spacing of sibling births. Phineas is called the youngest son by his father in a deed in 1738 (Worcester Deeds 61:87).
