The Rev. Robert Montgomery Young Stevenson Jr. was the youngest of twelve known children of Robert Montgomery Young Stevenson Sr. (1772-1835) and Maria Rebecca Steele Stevenson (1775-1839), who married c1775 in North Carolina.

Rev. Stevenson was born at Belleview, present day Washington County, Missouri. He moved to Butler County, Missouri with his parents in 1830. Sometime after his parents died he moved south, and on 24 Nov 1843 he married Sarah Harper Guinn (sometimes spelled Gwin) at Union County, Arkansas. Rev. Stevenson had a famous cousin, the Rev.

1. Missouri Elizabeth Stevenson (1846-1849)
