BENJAMIN BOONE (Samuel5; Benjamin4; Georges), born 3 July, 1791; died 5 Oct., 1841, aged 50 yrs., 3 mo., 2 da.
Married 27 Nov., 1817, Hannah Boyer (d. 27 Dec., 1866, aged 72 yrs., 10 mo., 28 da.). (a)
On 30 April, 1825, Samuel Boone (brother of Benjamin) and his wife, deeded to Benjamin a water right "conveying as much water out of Fishing Creek as Benjamin Boone his heirs and assigns may think proper to make use of; also the privilege of building a dam across said creek near the house of said Samuel Boone not exceeding four feet in height, and digging a race from said dam through his land where the old race formerly began," etc. (b) Benjamin built and ran a gristmill which was later sold by his Administrator. This mill was still running in 1918, and the masonry under it was as fresh and strong as if recently built. A stone structure across the mouth of Fishing Creek, built by Benjamin Boone for mill purposes, is now utilized as a trolley bridge.
Letters of administration on the estate of Hannah Boone were issued to C. D. Boyer, 3 Jan., 1867.

Before the Revolution, William Henton went from Berks Co., Pa., to what is now Rockingham Co., Va., where he died about 1786. He had sons William, Evan, Jo,seph, Peter and Thomas, and three daughters, one of whom was named Rebecca. The son Peter had a daughter Phoebe, thought to have been the one who married William Tallman, brother of Sarah. With the exception of Thomas, the children of William Henton, so far as known, remained in Virginia, where many of their descendants still live.)

Thomas and Sarah Henton moved from Rockingham Co., in 1803, to the west fork of Brush Creek in Va., and the next year (1804) went to Ohio, and settled on a farm near Hillsboro, Ohio., where he died.
In about 1842 his widow, Mrs. Sarah (Tallman) Henton, removed to Peru, Ind., after the arrival there of her sons Benjamin, Sylvester, Thomas and Elam.
