NAMESAKE OFTHOMAS WARD STEVENS, HENRY WARD STEVENS, ISAAC WARD STEVENS
Descendancy from John Heinrich "Henry" Stephens and subsequent name to Stevens change has been challenged:It has been said:that to make a connection between the mysterious disappearance of one Henry STEPHENS from an approximate time and place, and the mysterious appearance of one Henry STEVENS in the same approximate time and place, without substantiating proof of sources, is an unwarranted assumption or a leap of faith.I agree with that assessment.However, there have been many name changes throughout history.To assume there was no name change from STEPHENS to STEVENS also requires a great deal of faith.Someday, the truth may be known.
