Benjamin was a member of the Virgina House of Parliament. He first settled in Prince Edward Co. VA. There was a manor house and other buildings on this estate. It was later sold to Jeremiah Hardwick and Thomas Gibson (Deed Bk #5-Pr Edw. Co., VA) Names of brothers Benjamin, Charles and Lewis appear on several deeds, which substantiates another proof that Charles was the son of William. (from Shirley Dal Pozzo)
