<<<Dear Ed. Would you please explain the BENGE book briefly.? What is it about.? Is that a family name? Is this fiction? I recently ran across the BENGE family name in some of my reading. >> <<And if you care to, tell me where you moved to. I understand that you were living in NH? >>> I moved from Bennington, NH where I lived for one year, to Narrows, Giles Co., VA on the New River. I was born and raised (some would say, HALF) in Washington Co., VA BENGE is a book on the history of an Indian raider leader who lived in SW VA. It is the story of his life and tragic death and the many murders and gives a true view of the life of 1790 SW VA and what our ancestors endured. Many families are mentioned, please don't ask me to do a lookup. Thanks. -sysop "Toto, I don't think we are in NH any more."
