Benjamine Carnahan was the son of James Harvey Carnahan, my great, great grandfather.
Benjamine died by accident leaving, three children and his wife Edwina Gilworth Carnahan,
they returned to his, James H. Carnahan,s farm in Industry, Illinois in 1876. The two
sons, Charles Walter Carnahan and Fredrick Edward Carnahan were raised by Benjamine,s dad,
James H. Carnahan on thefarm, Benjamines daughter, Mary Olive b 1871, was raised by Mary
Carnahan Wilson, Benjamines sister in Industry, Illinois. Edwina Gilworth Carnahan left
in 1880 to Galesburg, Illinois to her parents and left the children behind. She had
anouther son, Albert ( called bertie ) in 1878, probably why she left. I have dates but
not handy right now. I can send them latter if that works for you? Thanks Bob C.
