Benjamin Stevens was granted a house lot in 1676, by the town of Stamford, 'For services against the common enemy.' Benjamin, in 1680, removed to a place called 'Hop Grounds', now in the town of Bedford, Westchester County, New York, but which was then under the jurisdiction of the town of Stamford as a part of that town. About the same time, ancestors of the Wildman family, of Danbury, went from Norwalk or Darien to 'Hop Grounds.' About 1700, at least previous to 1710, Benjamin Stevens and two Wildman brothers removed to Danbury.
Benjamin had four sons who came with him to Danbury, probably all under age at that time. Dates of their birth cannot be given. Benjamin's sons were Ebenezer, Benjamin, Jr., Nathaniel and Thomas.
Ebenezer settled in New Fairfield, about 1741, and is the ancestor of the Stevens' in New Fairfield and some in Brookfield.
Thomas is the ancestor of the Stevens' that used to be in Mill Plain (Danbury), CT.
Benjamin is believed to have built the first house at Mill Plain about 1711.
