"4. Stephen3 Tracy (John2, Stephen1) was born at Duxbury, Massachusetts, in 1673-4 and died at Windham, Connecticut, 19 December 1769. He married at Windham 26 June 1707, Deborah Bingham, … daughter of Deacon Thomas and Mary (Rudd) Bingham. … Stephen3 Tracy moved to Windham, Connecticut, about 1700 for a deed of 19 January 1703-4 called him of that place. … Stephen3 probably preceded his father John2 to Windham, as it would have taken some time to improve the land and his father was then aged. …
The original will of Stephen3 Tracy on file at Hartford Connecticut, was dated 7 June 1755, was proved on 22 December 1769 and approved 2 January 1770. The will mentioned sons Prince4, John4, James4, Thomas4, and daughter Deborah, wife of Increase Moseley. It gave James4 thirty-five acres out of the farm 'where I now dwell, on the west side of the Shetucket River, and which I deeded to him 27 Apr. 1755. The one-hundred acre lot at Beaver Brook (now in the town of Scotland) to be divided to the children equally, provided I do not sell it in my lifetime.' 'Prince, John, and daughter Deborah have had part of the estate before.' An inventory taken 27 December 1769 totaled £708.8.6. A distribution dated 7 May 1770 set off land to Thomas4, Prince4, John4 Tracy, to Deborah Moseley, and to the heirs of James4, who were Stephen6 and Nathaniel6. Both Stephen3 and his wife Deborah were buried in old Windham Cemetery."
