From the birth dates of his siblings listed in Betty Mann's book, I would guess his birth to be between 1795 and 1797. That would make him abt 18 - 20 years old when he married in 1815. Phebe b. 1780 Bethuel b. 1782 Reuben b. 1789 Ann b. 1790 Martha b. ca. 1791 Vashti b. 1794 Benjamin Jr. Mary b. 1798 (possible typo in Betty's book, has 1789) James b. 1801 William b. 1806 Kitturah b. ? Rachel b. ? Have know idea where 1803 came from. Could be Kitturah or Rachel.
