Biography

Tristrim (per his grave marker; variously spelled Tristam, Trusturn, Tristram), Stedman was born in 1781, in or near Tyringham (Berkshire County), Massachusetts. His parents were Penolepe (Hazard) and Trustam Stedman (1751-1841).

Tristrim did not migrate with his birth family to New York State when they moved in the late 1700s, thus remained in his home area near Tyringham.

Tristrim married Huldah Herrick probably about 1804, in Tyringham. They had at least seven children:

  • Lorenzo Herrick Stedman (1806 - 1883); baptized 10 Feb 1806 [1]; married 1) Caroline E. Linsted; 2) Susan
  • Abigail Cornelia (Stedman; 1808-1899); married Ambrose Spencer
  • Henry Addison Stedman (bapt. 22 Jan 1811 [2] - 1905); married Louise Ann Couch
  • Mary Bird Stedman (bapt. 28 Apr 1816 [3] - 1891); married Lysander M. Francis
  • Ann Eliza Stedman (bapt. 31 Mar 1819 [4] - 1894); married Bethuel Gifford (son of Ursula (Barnard; 1785-1851) & John Gifford Jr. (1785-1861)
  • Julia Maria Stedman (bapt. 4 Apr 1822 [5] - 1911); married Joseph Luther Mecum
  • Oscar A. Stedman (bapt. 22 Nov 1826 [6] - 1883); married Catherine P. Linsted

Tristrim Stedman died 13 November 1831 in Tyringham. His grave is in Tyringham Cemetery, Tyringham, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, USA [7].

Notes

Tristrim's wife, Huldah Herrick (1786 - 13 Mar 1862) probably was a daughter of Rachel (Bird; 1758-1839) and Hezekiah Herrick (1758-1848).
