BETSEY STEVENS
HIS WIFE
1817 - 1900
[Note: the memorial page misidentifies the wife, giving Rev. Piper's wife another marriage in 1846 which is impossible, since Rev. Piper and his wife were already married at the time and Rev. Piper and his wife both lived long past that date (see census records cited on Rev. Piper's page). Various censuses show that Alonzo Stevens' wife was born about 1820, not 1817 (1850, 1870), as does her death record in 1905, showing that the two marriages belong to different women.]
