was born in Poughkeepsie, New York, on November 26, 1806. He moved to Texas in 1834, acquired land now in Jasper County, and was elected a delegate from Bevil Municipality to the Consultation of 1835 and from Jasper Municipality to the Convention of 1836. He signed the Texas Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the Republic. Everitt also served as one of three commissioners appointed to close the land offices in the Department of Nacogdoches and gained several mail contracts in Southeast Texas. He married Alta Zera Williams, and they had four children. Although Stephen was not a practicing physician in Texas, he was often referred to as "Doctor Everitt". He was a strong supporter and close friend of Mirabeau B. Lamar and represented Jasper County as a senator in the first five congresses of the Republic of Texas before resigning in December 1840.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As a speculator, he operated stores in Bevilport and on Sabine Pass and owned town lots in Bevil, Jasper, and Belgrade.
