Individual Details

Stephen, Jr. FREEMAN

(Abt 1720 - Abt 1762)


From the Freeman Families of New England: "On 24 March 1745 in Morristown, Morris, New Jersey he entered his covenant or was baptized as an adult at the First Presbyterian Church.
On 3 November 1753 in Morristown, Morris, New Jersey he joined the First Presbyterian Church. He died between 30 January 1762 and 9 March 1762 in Hanover, Morris, New Jersey.
From New Jersey Colonial Wills, Vol. IV, 1928, p. 153:
“1762, Jan. 30. Freman, Stephen, Jr., of Hanover, Morris Co., yeo-
man; will of. Personal and real to be sold, and the money to be
for benefit of my wife, Sarah, to help her to bring up my children.
Executors — wife, Sarah, and my brother-in-law, Mathew Fairchild.
Witnesses — Jacob Ford, John Mitchell, Jr., Timothy Johnes. Proved
March 9, 1762. Lib. H, p. 143.”
There is no present [2015] evidence that Stephen Freeman, Jr. had a sister so lacking any marriage evidence, a very strong presumption is that Sarah’s maiden name is Fairchild.
