Hereinafter cited as "NH State Papers."); Very possibly the Stephen of Brentwood who died in the Revolution at either Bemis Heights or Saratoga (History of N.H. - McClintock).
Sheppard assumed that this Stephen was the one who lived at Hampton NH and married a Susanna. However, Rockingham County land transfer records in Hampton show otherwise (Jr. Walter Lee Sheppard, "The Descendants of William Fifield," The American Genealogist, (January 1940): 19:103.

He on 27 Mar 1752 in Andover, Essex, Mass (Topsfield Historical Society, compiler, Vital records of Andover, Massachusetts to the end of the year 1849 (Topsfield, Mass: Topsfield Historical Society, 1912), Intent recorded on 27 March 1752. Hereinafter cited as Andover Mass VR.). He married Susan Straw (24766) circa 1762 (.). He died between 1810 and 1830 in Dorchester, Grafton, N.H (Reverend M. T. Runnels, History of Sanbornton, NH (Boston, Mass: Alfred Mudge & Sons, 1881), Page 277 says died in Dorchester; no date. Hereinafter cited as Sanbornton NH.) (Heads of Families at the Third Census of the United States taken in the year 1810 Dorchester, Grafton, N.H 6 Aug 1810 The National Archives Federal Archives, Waltham, Middlesex, Mass.); Appears in 1810 census but not in 1830.
Daniel came from Hampton and moved to Sanbornton in 1764. Sheppard has made some assumptions in assigning him as a child of his #29 Henry, and makes the assignment largely on the basis of naming patterns. However, it is now apparent that Henry's brother Samuel had a family, and I feel that the assignment to Samuel is more logical. Note that Daniel named a son Samuel and no son is named Henry. According to the History of Sanbornton Daniel had removed from Amesbury or Salisbury, MA but Sheppard has obviously read this. The reasons for doubting it include the lack of any records showing any appropriate Fifields in those towns at the time ( Jamuary/April 2008 Volume 25 #1 & 2 page 56 and January 2005, Volume 22 #1 page 8.). He lived on 18 Mar 1765 in Sanbornton, provincial N.H (N.H. Town Records : Sanbornton NH, Volume 1 page 44.). He lived in 1803 in Dorchester, Grafton, N.H (N.H. Town Records : Sanbornton NH, Volume 1 pages 440 & 444.); At the town meeting of Sanbornton in March of 1803 the town voted to "put out the keeping of Daniel Fifield and family during their natural lives to Joseph Fifield for a reasonable compensation." The town warrant article is on page 440, the record of the vote on page 444. At this time, son Joseph was in Dorchester. He appeared on the census of 1810 in Dorchester, Grafton, N.H.
