STEBBINS FAMILY.
'The Stebbinses, not only of this town, but of the whole country, are descendants of ROWLAND STEBBING (as the name was first spelled in this country, and as it is now universally spelled in England), who came to this country in 1634. He was born in 1594, near Cambridge in England, and was a friend of Wm. Pynchon. In the family name, Stebbing, the termination ing is supposed to be of Saxon origin, and means, field, so that the name is descriptive, as all family names at first were, meaning stub field. Ilence, in the early mention of the name, 1235 and 1324, a prefix de is used, John de Steb- bing, Nicholas de Stybbynge. The earliest mention of the name yet discovered is in the chancery books of the county of Essex, 1201, where, in the hundred of Hincford, there is a town or parish of Stebbing.

ROWLAND, aged 40, brought with him from England his wife, Sarah, aged 43; Thomas, aged 14; Sarah, aged 11; John, aged 8; Elizabeth, aged 6. He stopped a short time m Roxbury, where Sarah, his wife, died Oct. 4, 1640, then came to Springfield, to his friend Pynchon. The father and his son John soon removed to Northampton, where Rowland died, Dec. 14, 1671, aged 77. His grave was opened by Daniel Stebbins, M. D., 1850, after the remains had been buried 179 years, and a marble slab, with suitable inscription, was to be placed at the head of the grave. A granite cenotaph had been erected to his memory in Dr. Stebbins's family square, as early as 1840, when his descendants had despaired ot identifying his grave.
