Stephens Family Cemetery
Located in east Mansfield, Stephens Family Cemetery can be reached by turning off Broad Street onto Mitchell Road. The graves are approximately 1/2 mile up the road to the right.
This grave site is a significant part of local history because the Stephens were among the first families to settle in Mansfield. L.H. Stephens' daughter, Sarah, was Ralph S. Man's second wife. A single marble tombstone marks the graves of all three children of Lemuel and Caroline Stephens, all died as infants in 1866, 1870 and 1871 respectively. A simple inscription reads, "In memory of the infant children of L.H. and Caroline Stephens. Erected August, 1882."
The Stephens family, who owned a 320-acre farm, were a prominent family in the area. Their oldest son, John H. Stephens, was an attorney who served in the Texas Senate from 1886 to 1888, and as a representative from Texas to the U.S. Congress from 1897 to 1917.
