Following a story on FB, I believe that the above are the parents of this Stephen...

I have omitted some of the story (too long)

Alice Roleson worked in a nail making shop in Rowley; before attending work each day, she would take her baby son, Stephen to a relative’s house who would mind the baby while she went off to work. Alice’s husband, was also named Stephen
However, the 20th September 1802, would prove to be anything but a normal and mundane day in the lives of the Roleson family

James Smith was, as reported by witnesses, extremely angry and agitated after he had been pushed by a fellow male worker. He seized up a red hot iron nail rod from the forge and, with all his might, hurled it like a spear at his male opponent. However, the red hot rod, missing his intended target, struck Alice Roleson full in the chest. Her terrible screams of pain and agony were heard around the village and cries of Murder! Murder! from within the workshop brought people running to the scene of the fatal incident.
James Smith was arrested at the scene of his heinous crime

At the Coroner’s Inquest, a verdict of “Wilful Murder” was returned with villagers fully expecting James Smith to feel the full might of the law and face the hangman and hanged by the neck until dead.
The villagers were to suffer disappointment and shock however, when at the conclusion of his trial in Stafford, James Smith was found guilty of the lesser crime of “Manslaughter” and to the further vexation and outrage of the villagers, he received a fine of just one shilling for his evil deed that had deprive a husband of his wife and a son of his mother. But such was the ill feeling towards James Smith by the villagers and in fear for his life; he left the area never to return.
On a brighter conclusion to this awful tragedy, in 1825, Stephen junior, married Anne Parsons from Kingswinford, they had five children together.

Mmmm strange Kaye I can see his surname was BISSELL

I wonder what the result of the Coroner’s Inquest was on that?
