I sent the last reply too quick.
I found in Sterett Family History on William Sterett,
" William's three wives were all first cousins, granddaughters of the
wealthy landowner, Richard Stephens, for whom Stephensport was named"

William married:
Elizabeth Eleanor Dorsey, d/o Nancy Stephens & Charles Dorsey, 11 Feb 1827.

Elizabeth Ann Holt, d/o Eleanor K. Stephens & John W. Holt, 3 Dec 1840.

Sarah Eleanor Stone, d/o Sallie Stephens & Eli Stone, about 1864. ( I have
not found a date for this marriage but Elizabeth Ann Holt Sterett had died 1
Feb 1863)
