Chase Stevens was born in 1746 in Falmouth. He lived in Columbia, Maine, in 1769 and left before 1790. In 1792 he sold 60 acres of property he held in Columbia. He was a teacher and a land surveyor.

According to tradition, he was responsible for a large amount of land and map work in the area. The Stevens House is located on Stevens Road. It was built around 1790. He was a taxpayer in Windham in 1782.

He was a devout Quaker and is buried in a small family cemetery located near his former home. His grave is marked by a field stone with the initials “C.S.” In 1889, the cemetery was deeded to the town.

The property stayed in the Stevens family until Howard Boody bought the house in either 1935 or 1940, and the next purchasers were named Sanborn, MacMillan, Emery, and in 1967, George and Esther Staples.

Today this property is the home of the Webster family who operate a large, well-known sheep farm.

The Chase Stevens House, off Falmouth Road, on Stevens Road was built about 1790.
