William Stephan was born on September 15, 1815, in Hesse-Darmstadt. His father Adam Stephan b1778 was 37 and his mother Anna, Maria was 27. He had three sons and five daughters with Theresa Schwindermann Stephan between 1849 and 1870, eight of which are listed below. He passed away on March 24, 1890 in Ottawa, Waukesha Co, Wisconsin at the age of 74 and was laid to rest in this cemetery. He came to America in 1832 with his family. My G/grandfather Adam Stephan b1813 no doubt grew up with him in Lamperthiem, Hessen, Germany.
I had been Looking for A SHIPS LIST Record for My G/Grandfather Adam Stephan B1813 for a long time, so I was Amazed when I Finally discovered it. It amazes me that He came over with 0ne of the earliest Stephan Families to Immigrate. I did not expect to find him this early in the records near where he ultimately settled. It turns out that Adams Co, Pa Is only 75 miles from Blair Co, Pa where my ADAM STEPHAN b1813 settled with his family in Hollidaysburg,Penns. They All have a Common Ancestor in JOHAN PHILIP STEPHAN born 1681 in Hesse-Darmstadt,
