Carol, I live at Reasnor IA 3 miles from Hewitt Cemetery where Benjamin and wife
Elizabeth are buried. My cousin and I have not been able to trace back from Benjamin L
and would appreciate any information you might have. Ronald J. Carnahan from had informed
me Benjamin's wife Elizabeth Hayden's father was Jacob Hayden. He believed that
Jacob'os family came from New Jersey. I am rather new at this research. I am helping
another cousin who has more information, but neither of us have been able to go further
back from Benjamin. We are fifth generation. Hewitt Cemetery records do no further back
than 1904. They are in the process of obtaining further records going back from 1904.
Would appreciate any help you might be able to furnish. Thank you, Shirley Carnahan
