The maiden name of Jane or Jean Stephenson Fleming has never been discovered. I hoping that Fleming researchers might know the maiden name of Jane or Jean. A John Stephenson and David Stephenson of Ireland went to Orange County,VA and Old Augusta Co,VA by 1734. A John Stephenson and a Jane James sold 110 acres to William Ramsey in Augusta County,VA in 1753.
My John Stephenson and wife Jane applied for a royal grant in what is now York County,SC in 1762 on Stephenson branch of Bullocks Creek. In the 1760's a David Stephenson settled on Turkey Creek in York County,SC,some five miles away from John. The information I have points to Old Augusta Co,VA,now Rockbridge Co,VA,but It can't be proved that the John Stephenson and wife Jane in SC.were the same ones in Old Augusta Co,VA.

My John Stephenson might have had some connection to a James White Stephenson b. 1754 in Augusta Co,VA, who married Mary Fleming. He and Dickeys,Flemings,James' are outline here:

As far as I know,there is no connection between my John Stephenson and James White Stephenson,but I find it fascinating how the same surnames show up. James White Stephenson went to Lancaster Co,SC for a time which is next to York Co,SC.
