Notes

! Update from letter I received from Fran Helphinstine, 12/28/95. Her father is still alive and has an excellent memory. He says Ben died from T.B. This is probably still in line with the family tale listed above. Someone with T.B. could very easily have choked to death.

! According to Bertha Martinez Ben's marriage was to a widow named Annie Crane who had 4 children. Evidently this marriage didn't work out, because he went back to live with his family. (His sister and brother, Maggie and John).
