Temperance (Titus) Denton - Richard Denton’s wife— Steevens or Titus?

yesterday at 5:57 PM

I just recently came across some info on some other sites, suggesting that Robert Denton’s wife Temperance, is neè Steevens? And that Temperance Titus died at the age of 23? It’s the 1st time i’ve seen this— and i just noticed Erica Howton’s curator note, “perhaps Steevens” 😅 ..and then looking back at the previous revisions, i see she was previously “Steevens”.. I know i had uploaded the Find a Grave photo back in 2020- but i dont recall a “Steevens”.. But now she is on Find a Grave aswell. What did i miss?!😅
Lol, sorry Erica.

This is tricky.

EDMOND2 TITUS (Robert1) and Martha had children:

Patience3 b. 1678, m. 1704, Nicholas Haight, dau.
Hannah m. Isaac Thorne.
Temperance3 b. 1681. Died 15 January 1704

There’s no marriage record for this Temperance.

There’s clear Quaker records for Patience Titus and Nicholas Haight.

OK. Here’s good evidence:

Barlow, Claude W. John Steevens of Guilford, Connecticut : five generations of 17th & 18th century descendants with surnames Steevens, Stevens, Stephens, Kelsey. (Publication date 1976) Page 117. < Archive.Org >

The change of parents to Elizabeth Stevens & Ens. Samuel Stevens is done.
