Stephen Northup was married to Catherine E. Bright, July 8, 1849. They had the following children:

Mary Ann Northup, 1850-1924
Dora Northup, 1855- (appeared in the 1860 census only)
Effie Northup, 1852-1860
Frelove Northup, 1854-1857
Frank A. Northup, 1854-1864
Flora Northup, 1856-1920
George L. Northup 1861-unknown. I found a record indicating that he died in 1897, but he appeared in later census documents, so that is obviously false.

Catherine died September 2, 1865 in Griggsville.

He then married Sarah J. McCune Smith. She had previously been married to Charles Smith (1842-1863). They had one child who joined the family with Steven and his children. Her name was Jessie Lena Smith (1862-1909)

Steven and Sarah had three sons:

Ashley Bentley Northup, 1868-1937
Anson Northup, 1871-1938
Arden Northup, 1875-1952.

The 1868 census lists his occupation as Wheelwright; 1880 census lists his occupation as Wagon Maker.
