Generation: 1
| 1. |  John Benham, Jr. was born on 15 Sep 1664 in New Haven, Connecticut Colony, British Colonial America; died about 1745 in New Haven, New Haven County, Connecticut Colony, British Colonial America. Notes:
...According to the "New England Marriages prior to 1700" it would appear that John Benham is the son of John and Sarah Benham. As they appear to be the only Benham's living in New Haven at the time, reason indicates John is one of their children. This theory is also supported by the fact that the family of a "Mr. Mansfield resided on the square just to the west of the original John Benham acreage in New Haven. (See New Haven Map of 1641)
...John lived in New Haven. He sold land to John Smith March 3, 1704, to Elnathan Prindle April 16, 1708. Bought land in West Haven in Feb 1709. He gave land in West village to his son Ebenezer on May 23, 1776. His will appears in New Haven probate records, vol. 6. ref: "The Benham Family in America"
John married Comfort Mansfield about 1691 in New Haven, Connecticut Colony, British Colonial America. Comfort was born on 6 Dec 1668 in Quinnipiac, New Haven County, Connecticut Colony, British Colonial America; died after 1740. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
