 Do you ever go on the 'live chat' part of the site ... if you read this ... go on it ... and see if a Ken S is there ... that is me
William Stephenson - born 1814 at Doncaster West Yorkshire - married Mary Scott at Cottingham East Yorkshire (Hull) in 1838. Williams parents I believe were another Wm Stephenson and an Alice Carter - married Cantley Parish W Yorks (Doncaster) in 1811..... Other east riding names are Nicholls (Bridlington, Yorks and Wigan Lancs.) and the surname Withernwick.

 In this 67 page history ... inside what looks like the back cover (remembering, that what I have is a photocopy of the work ... not the actual book its self) there appears to have been an old obit., cut out of a newspaper and glued in, which reads ......
  "Sarah Cook Stephenson.
  Miss Sarah Cook Stephenson, third
daughter of the late Joseph Stephen-
son and the late Mary Wilson Stephen-
son of Cobourg, Ont., died in Toronto
yesturday in her 82nd year, after a long
illness. The late Miss Stephenson was
born in Richmond Hill, and began
teaching school in Aurora, Ont., when
18 years old, continuing active in the
profession until, she was 70 years of
age. For 23 years she was on the staff
of DeMills Collage, Oshawa and St.
Catharines and also taught for three
years in mission schools. She was a
life long Methodist and a member of
(Glebe)? Road United Church.  There
survive two brothers, Dr A.R. Stephen-
son of Ogdensburg, New York, and
Edmund F Stephenson, of Victoria
B.C., and one sister, Mrs David Stouf-
fer, of (162)? Albertus Avenue, Toronto, at
whose home, service will be held Sun-
day evening at 8:30 o'clock. Interment
will be in Cobourg on Monday."

 Now ... I asume this obit, was glued in here  because she was of this same family line. I do not know what year the news item is from ... or what paper it was cut out of.
