Andrew Michael Stephens’ arrival on Jan. 8 would have been touching, as he would have shared the birthday of his late great-grandfather and partial namesake. Instead, the 6-pound, 11-ounce boy was born at 12:32 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 1, one week before his due date, at Northeast Georgia Medical Center Braselton, becoming Hall County’s first baby of 2019.
