• Notes

  The Beckett reference says that Benjamin married (2) Rahamnah and together they had five more children that are not shown here, but it is more likely that Rahamnah was actually the wife of Benjamin's son, Benjamin. Ref. (4) says Benjamin married Bethamy Luther, but it is more probable that Bethamy was the wife of Benjamin's son, Benjamin. Bethamy may be the same person as Rahamnah. Page 56 of ref. (4) also attributes several children to Benjamin who were probably children of Benjamin's son, Benjamin. Ref. (5) says Benjamin was born 5 Feb 1735. References: (3) Clan Munro files - Yard, Prof. F.
