Question about the possessive. Example….Bob Stevens. …Bob Stevenses lawn mower..or…Bob Stevens’ Lawn mower. Is not the latter correct?

Yes, I believe the latter is correct in your example. You also have the option of adding an ‘s’, thus: “Bob Stevens’s lawn mower.”

Past tense example. Fred texted me. (I f~~~ing hate that) or..Fred text’ me. I like the latter.

I believe the former is correct there. I have never seen the latter usage before. Maybe that’s an American thing. I’m British.
