Stephen, Jr., spent most of his life farming. He may have been involved occasionally in the occupation of his brothers-in-law Dominicus and James Sewell, as in 1880 he was a clock-tinker. In any case, if the size of cemetery monuments are an indication of success, then Stephen was at least moderately successful at his endeavors.
In addition, in his will369
, executed by his sons S. G. Veazie and C. H. Veazie, Stephen left to his daughter Martha Huchins $150, to Charles Huchins (mentioned in other administrative documents as his grandson) $150, to his daughter Eva A Cram $250, to his son S. G. Veazie $500, to his son C. H. Veazie $500, to his son F. M. Veazie the interest on $300 during the life of his (Stephen's) wife - thereafter the money to be his own, and to his wife Sarah the use of his house and lot in Caton Center, and the use of about $1800 during her life, after her death to be divided equally among his children, providing Sarah releases her right of dower to it. This amounts to over $3600 in bequeaths, a respectable sum in 1881.
