>From 1976, Polk County News by Roy G. Lillard
The Garden Club of Benton has erected a marker in the Town of Benton Cemetery, " IN MEMORY OF EARLY SETTLERS, CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS AND SLAVES OF POLK COUNTY WHOSE GRAVES HAVE BEEN LOST" The marker is constructed of rock from the JD Clemmer map of Polk County; with the Clemmer Family donating the rock. The bronze plaque was given by Mr.s Susan Jones. Included in the memeorials are the slaves of the Hildebrand Family, the Gamble Family and the McClary Family. James McKamy's farm which had gained prominence as a stock stand on the Old Federal Road later became the Town of Benton. During the second week of April, 1840, Benton was sold at auction bringing, in all. $11,386.00. However,James McKamy gave each of the three churches, the Baptists, Methodist and Presbyterian a lot; he also donated the original Town of Benton Cemetery.

Martin Clymer
A sometimes unreliable source says that the Clymer (Klemmer) name was
brought to the United States by two brothers, one of whom was Christian
Clymer(Klemmer). He was born In Germany In 1697, died in 1759, and is thought
to have emigrated prior to 1730. Christian resided in what is now Milford
Twp., Bucks Co., and his name appeared on the record as a petitioner to
divide the township In 1734. His wife Barbara died 1/14/1776 after giving him
seven sons and five daughters, one of whom was Jacob, b. 1729. As his
descendants were Mennonites, it is likely that he was also.
MARTIN ( Matthew) CLEMMER ( CLYMER ) 2/23/1752- 5/12/1820
Martin's name appears on the Rockhill Twp tax for the year 1779. He is
assessed for 300 acres (acreage was often rounded off) with his eldest son,
Jacob, appearing next to his father, is credited with one horse and no land.
They are the only Clymers listed under Rockhill Twp. By 1781, Martin had
begun helping Jacob get started on his own, for Martin is listed with 200 and
Jacob with 100 acres. The following year Christian Clemmer appears on the
1ist of taxable single men in Rockhill Twp. It remains so until 1785 when
Martin disappears and Christian and Abraham take his place with 100 and 70
acres respectively. Martin had died. In December, 1784, sons Jacob and
Christian, the administrator, petitioned the Orphans Court for an audit of
the estate. The opinion of the court, handed down on 9/12/1785. was that the
tract of 324 acres could not be divided among the 11 children “without
prejudice or spoiling the whole.. Therefore, on 12/12/1785, eldest son Jacob
bought out the share of each of his brothers and sisters in the farm. These
were Christian and Abraham - who was ln his minority and had petitioned for
a guardian

Gretchen,
This is a little far-fetched but I am researching a Klemmer family from
Luxembourg and while most of the family settled in Fayette County Iowa, one
son,Joseph Klemmer, went to Stearns County around 1912 ish. He married his
first wife Gertrude Frieler from New Munich before moving east to Michigan.
I always wondered if there was a Klemmer relative in Stearns County and I
wonder if there is any mention with your Klemmers of relatives from Iowa
(originally from Luxembourg). Joseph's father, Peter, emigrated from Lux.
in 1889. He went back in 1900 to Lux. and brought back a Magdelena Klemmer
aged 19. I have been unsuccessful in tracing what happened to her. I know
this is far-fetched but I thought I would try. There were too many
coincidences.
