Stephen DeMaranville was born on 15 August 1750 at Dartmouth, Bristol County, Massachusetts, the son of Louis De Moranville and Susannah Crapo of Dartmouth.

Stephen enlisted at Suffolk County, Massachusetts, on 29 September 1777 as a Private in the Company of Captain Benjamin Wilcox of Colonel Nathaniel Freeman’s Regiment. The term of his service was thirty days, during which they were on a secret expedition to Rhode Island.

Later in the war, he appeared on the roll of October 1780 in the Company of Captain Zebadiah Dewey of Colonel Gideon Warren's Regiment of the Vermont Militia.

Stephen married Deliverance Delia Barden on 13 August 1767. Their marriage is recorded in the registers at Dartmouth and Freetown, Massachusetts. The known children of Stephen and Deliverance were:

Send a biographical sketch of your patriot!

Patriot biographies must be the original work of the author, and work submitted must not belong to another person or group, in observance with copyright law. Patriot biographies are to be written in complete sentences, follow the established rules of grammar, syntax and punctuation, be free of typographical errors, and follow a narrative format. The narrative should unfold in a logical manner (e.g. the narrative does not jump from time period to time period) or have repeated digressions, or tell the history of the patriot's line from the patriot ancestor to the author. The thinking here is that this is a patriot biography, not a lineage report or a kinship determination project or other report published in a genealogy journal. The biography should discuss the qualifying service (military, patriotic, civil) of the patriot ancestor, where the service was rendered, whether this was a specific state or Continental service, as well as significant events (as determined by the author) of the patriot's life. This is the entire purpose of a patriot's biography.
