bullet  Notes:

John was the youngest son of Nicholas Stevens of Ash, who died when John was six years old. He inherited the leases on four houses from his father, and was living in Hale (between Aldershot and Farnham) at the end of his life.

Around 1660 he married Sarah Hill who probably came from Ockley or Ewhurst in Surrey. They had three children, including Mary who married Robert Gardiner and brought up their family in Farnham. Sarah died soon after the birth of her youngest daughter in 1666. In 1675 John married again to Joanna Yalden (qv), daughter of William Yalden the Ironmaster of Blackdown in Sussex. Their two surviving children were Joanne, who did not marry and lived in Farnham, and John (qv). John snr left his property in Farnham to his wife Joanna and son John.
