BENSON, Zenas (or various spellings of the first name) - b. 1822 & d. 1867 in Kent Co., DE. Married Catherine Reynolds in 1843. They had 10 children (John Thomas, Mary, Sarah Elizabeth, William, Elizabeth, Adeline, Wilmer, Ella Alamina, Alden & Elmer). Zenas & his wife owned a farm in Kent County & stayed there all their lives. We are desperately trying to find who Zenas parents were and who his siblings (if there were any) were. He states in census that he was born in DE - during one census a Sarah was living with them, census taker listed her as a Benson and as his mother (we can find no record of her buried in DE, no birth, death or marriage date for her and no wills listing her, however). Any one with a Zenas (Yeamus, etc.) Benson in their Kent Co., DE family tree, please contact us! I am a direct descendants! My grandfather was Wilmer K. Benson, Sr., son of John Thomas Benson.
