Hi, I hope I am not troubling you. I found your website and email address with citations and photographs of William Whitsey Benbrook, whom I believe is my Great Great Great Grandfather on my Father's side. Below is what I believe is our lineage, maybe you can verify with more information that you have. If we can verify, I want to thank you for sharing the photos you have provided on the website.
John David Sneden (myself)
Father: Robert John Sneden (Spouse: Ann Hopper)
Grandfather: Walter Benjamin Sneden (Spouse: Evelyn Goebel)
Great Grandfather : Benjamin Robert Sneden (Spouse:
Bertha Florence Benbrook)
Great Great Grandfather: James Turnbull Benbrook
(Spouse: Mary Van Neste) ?
Great Great Great Grandfather: William
Whitsey Benbrook ?
I am 100% positive that Bertha Florence Benbrook is my Great Grandmother. She was born Jan 26, 1878 in Newark, New Jersey. According to the 1880 Federal Census, a Bertha F. Benbrook, age 2, is shown living in a James T. and Mary E. Benbrook household. Brothers and sisters are Walter, William, and Anna. I haven't been able to verify that this 1880 Bertha F. Benbrook is from my lineage, but the birthdates, locations all match relatively straightforward. My Bertha Florence Benbrook's death certificate shows parents as unknown. Any chance you have some additional information from your searching that would match up and provide any confirmation around my circumstantial assumptions?
Thank you for any consideration and assistance you might be able to
provide.......
John.............
