Record for Isaac Benson
Isaac Benson
Birth: Jun. 8, 1817
Waterford, Erie County, Pennsylvania, USA
Death: Mar. 11, 1894
Coudersport, Potter County, Pennsylvania, USA
Isaac Benson married Euginia Laura Stebbins and had a son James B. Benson. They were a very successful family--both Isaac and son James well know lawyers. He married Euginia on December 14, 1857 in Coudersport. Son and only child James married Katherine Hodskin, the daughter of Albert Adams Hodskin and Celina Johnson (My great aunt). The family attended Christ Church, English Protestant Episcopal. Son James died mid 1890s leaving a wife and three young daughters.
In June, 1844, Isaac Benson was admitted at Warren, Penn., where he studied law under Struthers & Johnson, and has been in active practice down to the present time; he came, in 1845, to Coudersport, and has been one of the leading citizens of the borough. He is the senior lawyer of the old district, unless Henry Sherwood, of Wellsboro, may be considered so. Edward O. Austin, who studied under Mr. Benson, was admitted in 1848.
Benson, Isaac and Eugenia (Stebbins), a son James. Mr. Benson came to Coudersport as a young lawyer. He advanced rapidly in his profession and held many positions of trust, was elected to the Legislature and Senate, and was prominent in raising funds for the Civil War. He was taken on a bed to Harrisburg to vote for Simon Cameron; he acquire a goodly fortune, had a fine home, and he and his wife took an active part in all the interests of the town and its church and social life. Some of their descendants are still residents of the town. This old home is now part of the Coudersport Consistory building.
ISAAC BENSON, attorney at law, Coudersport, was born in Waterford, Erie Co., Penn., June 8, 1817. He became a student at the academy in his native town, and completed his studies at Warren, same State. Among the many classes of business which presented themselves for his consideration, none possessed the attractions of a profession, and being eminently qualified for the bar, both by literary acquirements and natural inclination, he entered, as a student, the office of Struthers, Johnson & Brown, prominent attorneys of Warren. He was admitted to the bar at that place in 1844, and first began the practice of law in the office of the firm just mentioned, where he remained for about one year. But the ambition of Mr. Benson was to find a wider field for his abilities, and June 11, 1845, he located at Coudersport, Potter Co., Penn., which presented itself to him as more suited to his progressive ideas. The immediate future of the place verified the accuracy of his judgment, and he soon acquired a proud position in the borough and vicinity. J. S. Mann, C. W. Ellis, L. F. Maynard and Wales Butterworth, all now deceased, were the first practitioners of Potter county, and were honorable and worthy competitors. Gradually, however, Mr. Benson found the number of his clients growing larger, his practice more remunerative, his popularity increasing, until in 1856 he was elected and served as member of the State legislature, and as State senator in 1859, both of which positions he filled with honor, winning the approval of his constituency. Early in the Civil war, his fidelity and ability being justly recognized, he received the appointment of paymaster, which he, however, declined, preferring to continue the practice of his chosen profession, the enjoyment of home life and his largely increased holdings, which required his constant care and supervision. Mr. Benson, in December, 1857, married Eugenie L., daughter of P. A. Stebbins, of Coudersport, and has one son, James B. Benson, who received a classical education, graduating from the University of Pennsylvania; he studied law with Wayne McVeigh, of Philadelphia, and was admitted to the bar in June, 1884. Hon. Isaac Benson still remains a member of the legal fraternity, enjoying the confidence and esteem of the citizens of Potter county, generally, and in the evening of his life finds himself crowned with honor, and in the enjoyment of the luxuries well-earned wealth affords.
