“(III) Stephen, son of Joseph and Hannah (Munson) Tuttle, was born May 20, 1673, at New Haven, Connecticut, and died in 1709.  His will is dated October 20, 17--, and recorded in Trenton, New Jersey, the same year, and also at Woodbridge, New Jersey.  He went to New Jersey about 1700.  He was a prominent member of the Hanover Presbyterian church, and helped to establish the church in his community, and largely supported it during his lifetime.  He lived in Woodbridge, New Jersey, and was constable in 1698.  His will mentions every member of his family, apportioning to each his just share.  He married, September 12, 1695, at Woodbridge, Ruth (Higgins) Fitz-Randolph (widow of Fitz-Randolph). 

 

The Higgins and Fitz-Randolph families were considered the gentry in that section of New Jersey, and she was accounted a beautiful woman and a great matrimonial catch by the chroniclers of that day.  Children: Timothy, of whom further; Joseph, Stephen, Samuel.”
