Hi List:
I agree with Charles. I came across a document that said Benjamin
was a vet. It had his wife as Mary, then Capt - which I believe meant
that he was a Captain in the war. I wondered that myself.

Ever since I first saw this surname for BENJAMIN'S wife I had
misgivings
about it. I think I have found the answer. It is in the DAR Patriot
Index. BENJAMIN is a recognized REV WAR VET. His listing in the Patriot
Index says CABLE, BENJAMIN wf MARY___, CAPT, PA, or something close to
that. But of course what it says is that his wife's maiden name is
unknown and that he served as a CAPTAIN in the AM REV! Don't waste your
time searching for a CAPT family! I have sent for a copy of the DAR
papers and I will verify this when they arrive.
