Hi, In my database, I have Daniel St. John as the son of James St. John and Mary Comstock from Fairfield County, CT.

I swear I find some on every few pages of census records! The only people in my files with the Benedict surname are the two Marys I wrote about. I don't know who their parents were. Do you have anything that connects your Daniel or Sarah benedict to my Mary?
