Does this means you have information that shows that Benedict and/or his father Benedict lived in Bakersfield, Fletcher, Franklin County? I appreciated very much the information you sent, as it confirms what I have also. What has always puzzled me is how Benedict Roys disappears from the usual records in Claremont, NH. suddenly, as does his son. And I did not know where he went to. Then I found something online that indicated a move to Bakersfield, etc. It is there life there that I am interested in. I do not descend from the younger Benedict Roys, but from his probably sister, Fanny. But I would love to know what happened to Benedict Roys senior, and his wife, Eliza. I am fascinated by your ancestor, Hezekiah. I have to check my records, but I discovered that Esther Bunnell and some of the Royces were involved in quasi Royalist activities in Connecticut and also New Hampshire. If you are at all interested in that stuff, I can get you that information. You might already have it. Thanks again. If you have any ideas about Bakersfield and environs, how I might get more information about the Royses there, let me know.
