| Notes for Otho STEVENS |
He was with Wolfe at the storming of Quebec. While climbing the Heights of Abraham his foot slipped and he fell to the bottom which caused such injuries as to result in his death when he returned to Oswego.Capt. Jacob Bayley's journal reads, "Oswego, Friday Sept. 21, 1759, Cool morning but pleasant. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon dies Otho Stevens after a long and tedious illness of 22 days, much lamented by his relations and friends, he being a loving brother and a faithful friend. He was sensible to the last breath he drew, and sensible of his approaching near another world, which did not in the least ruffle his spirits. But he seemed to have his hope firmly placed in God."
Hampstead records state he was b. in 1722, Gloucester records say 1726.
Hampstead records say he d. in 57 & 59 |
