Notes
Death
Two Stephen Mitchell have death records in the St. Peters Registry only about 5 years apart. It is obviously the two older Stephens as a young Stephen has children born in the mid 1720's. It also seems that Stephen Jr. had a son Thomas, born in 1718 - at that time his name was given just as Stephen Mitchell.Endnotes
