Wife of John Stevenson, see his burial for children of this union.

From Stevenson Genealogy(obtained from Genealogy Room, Winnsboro):

"Jane Murdoch's father was a dyer, and considered well-to-do. John Stevenson was forbidden to visit her. They were secretly married a year before her father knew it, and he never fully forgave her. Then, I suppose, they decided to come to America, where they found life very hard for sometime. He bought land in the New Hope Section of Fairfield County, where Eb Stevenson, their grandson, now lives. They migrated to America from Ireland about 1790. They then had three children: William, James & Mary, a baby who sickened and died on the voyage across, and was buried at sea. It took three months to come over in a sail vessel."Age 95y, born in County Antrim, Ireland

daughter of Hugh Murdock
