Events

Married: ABT 1894

!STATUS: INC SO: From personal note from Mary Jean Noblett, attached to List of Births on H-018. Also H-006, H-019. MILITARY: (H-006) Company C, 40th Iowa Infantry. 1861-1865. (H-019) He was in the same army unit as his brother, Anderson F. MARRIAGE: CH-001 (1900 Census) states married 6 years in 1990. H-019 gives marriage date. BURIAL: Cemetery #28. Wife, Nancy M. is also buried here. NOTES: (CH-001) 1900 Fed Census, shows Benjamin, wife Nannie and Stepson Roy, born Sept 1883, Iowa, as a family. NOTES: (H-019) obtained from Benjamin's Pension Records that: 1. Benjamin listed his children in 1898 as STORY b. MAR 22 1868 WILLIAM (Billy) b. JUL 17 1870 BERTHA b. SEP 1873 ROY b. JUN 14 1876 2. Benjamin listed his relationship to Anderson F. Harreld as brother. PROBLEM: Since these children were born before his marriage, at the age of 50, to Nancy M. Kuhns (Nelson) (Brunk) (Harreld), it would seem likely that his first wife, Melissa Bridges would be the mother?
