Stephen came in the boat "Hercules" with his family in 3-1634/35 from Sandwich, Kent. Stephen took the oath of fidelity in Scituate in 1657. Stephen and Joseph Tilden, probably his brother, petitioned the Plymouth court June 7, 1653 to lay out a way for them "unto the island commonly called Hatch's Island, and unto the island called Cooper's Island."
