Thank you very much! This definitely is the right John Stephen, and yes, his son William married Elizabeth Duncan in Angus in 1821. But I'm a bit puzzled that you say his wife was named Jane Fotheringham when the death certificate of William's brother Alexander says that Alexander's mother was named Ann Glegg. Perhaps John had two wives? I was also interested to learn that John was a tailor because William's son and grandson became tailors in Angus.

Sorry I can't give you information on this John Stephen, but thought I'd come in on the conversation because my search is similar and we might be looking for the same person. Our branch of the Stephens are descended from a William Stephen whose baptism was registered in Fetteresso in 1798. His father's name was John, but unfortunately no mother's name was given. I do have his exact baptism date, though - July 14, 1798. Please let me know if this William was the son of the John Stephen you are seeking.
