George VanHorn Stevenson, my uncle, was born in Iona, New Jersey on December 29, 1916. He was the son of John Ashfield and Ella May Faunce Stevenson. During his youth, he lived with his parents on Porchtown and Iona Roads in Franklin Township, Gloucester County, New Jersey. He married Margaret Elizabeth Born in April 1940.

They were married in Iona but soon moved to their home on the Delsea Drive in Franklinville. George worked in the New York Shipyard in Camden, New Jersey. They had six children; Helen Janet Stevenson, Margaret Elizabeth Stevenson, George VanHorn Stevenson, Jr., Susan Jane Stevenson, James Alan Stevenson and Russell John Stevenson. In addition, they were foster parents. Aunt Betty and Uncle George were very good knitters and they both like to tell a joke of two. My family lived very close to them in the late 1940s. George died on January 25, 1978, and was buried in the Cedar Green Cemetery in Clayton, New Jersey.
