Are these marriages all related? Benjamin Harris married Jane Crampton? Benjamin Harris married Sarah Cramphin? Benjamin Harris married Sarah Copenhagen? Query No. 1: From the 1776 census records of Prince George’s Co, MD- Lower Potomack Hundred we have Benjamin Harris b. 22 Dec 1742 who appears to be married to Jane Crampton. They have a child, John Cramphin Harris b. 1773 living with them in the 1776 census. Note from Carol Mitchell file: [118] Sarah Harris may have held the maiden name of Cramphin.118a With evidence of a Prince George's Co., MD land deed, Sarah married Benjamin Harris before 14 November 1748. [118b] The birth date of Benjamin Harris,Jr., presumed son of Sarah and Benjamin Harris (Sr.), placed the marriage date of Benjamin and Sarah Harris before 1742.[118c] [118a] Without documentation, Mrs. William Hyde Talbott stated that Sarah Cramphin was the wife of Benjamin Harris according to excepts from her undated letter located as a loose paper in the Harris Family File of the Montgomery Co. (MD) Historical Society, Rockville, MD. A search of early Maryland Provincial Court Judgment records circa 1758 or before concerning a judgment involving Thomas Cramphin and wife, executors of John Bowie, deceased, against Benjamin Harris may provide "proof" for the maiden name of Sarah Harris.[144] QUESTION: Does anyone know the ancestry of this Benjamin Harris in the 1776 census of PG, MD b. 1742 who has a child, John Cramphin Harris?
