"Potter BENSON, and his brother Daniel, came to Ceres in 1832. He married Henrietta GILBERT, daughter of Robert and Mary GILBERT. He was a farmer and owned a farm about a mile above town, where his wife still lives with her youngest son. Potter BENSON was a good citizen, honorable in all his dealings, and a truly good man. He left four daughters and one son. One son had died for his country during the rebellion.
His oldest daughter is the widow of Justus Rice, of Eldred. She has four children living (pub. 1896).
- One of her sons was drowned the past winter, and was brought to Myrtle, making the fifth generation of his mother's people buried there.
- The second daughter is the wife of G.W. Lewis, of Vineland, and has eleven children.
- The third daughter, Elizabeth, is the wife of Rowland R. Bell. She has eight children;
- his son, Brice B., has five, and
- the youngest daughter, Harriet, wife of Alvah HALL, of Allegany, has three.

Few have left a larger circle of descendants, and if they prove as worthy as they now give fair promise of being, his name will long be honored through them. His wife is now in her eighty-second and shows the infirmities of age."

Notes

"History of Ceres...", p. 53- "Roland R. Bell, the youngest son, now occupies the old homestead, and being a good farmer, the place continues to improve under his occupancy, and there are probably few better farms in this section. The hard work of the father and sons shows in the beautiful meadows and hillsides and the large orchards. The work of removing the pine stumps was a formidable undertaking, but they were so slow to decay that it was necessary to do it. The patent stump machine, and later dynamite, have pretty well cleaned most farms, but the stump fences built of them will long remain their memorial." _____________________ [Lewis by Edna Lovesky.FTW] Source 1: Title: email Merlyn Wetzel-14.08.00- "Potter Benson" Email addres is wetzupdoc@adelphia.net Author: Merlyn Wetzel Publication: "Beers History of McKean, Cameron, Elk, and Potter Counties" Note: Potter Benson's children were: Brice Briggs Benson, b.
