• Notes

  Philip Benner, "a native of Baden, Germany, was born in June, 1780. When a young man he emigrated to America and settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where he was married and raised a family of eight children. About the year 1825 he, with his wife moved to Canada and settled in Waterloo County where he died October 20, 1870." Eby, Ezra E. (1895). A biographical history of Waterloo township and other townships of the county: being a history of the early settlers and their descendants, mostly all of Pennsylvania Dutch origin: as also much other unpublished historical information chiefly of a local character. Berlin [Kitchener, Ont.]: [s.n.]. _________________ It has been suggested that Mary (Fralick?) died in Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania in 1825 perhaps at the birth of her last child. More research is needed.
