Thank you so much for your reply on Benjamin Clendenin. It can be so frustrating sometimes trying to follow leads. You mentioned you have a file on Benjamin Clendenin...would you be willing to share that info? Benjamin is my second great grandfather. My email address is smrolfe@msn.com. Thank you for the idea of searching out land records,I will be checking that out today. Any other leads you may have would be greatly appreciated. Have you thought of doing any DNA testing? I am in the process of submitting mine to Ancestry.com. Thank you again. SMR
