Am searching for genealogy research help on Benjamin Bell, family, ancestors and descendents. One descendent is Jennie Leona Bell who born 12-10-1885 in Webster Co., IA, parents were Albert Bell and Mary Ellen Groshart, and Jennie married Malcom Casebolt (aka Cyrus Malcom Casebolt) in 1907, and were known to be in Gosper Co., NE. Jennie died 6-26-1972 and Cyrus Malcom died 1-30-1969 and both are buried in the Elwood, NE, Gosper Co., cemetery. I have found the info below about Benjamin's Society. Also need info on Vegors cemetery, Webster Co., IA and the Bells buried there.
