Hi, I would like to find information on Mary Benbow, born about 1796, married Thomas West in 1816, (Wayne Co.) and died in 1827. (buried in Delaware Co.) Her husband died about 1834, and Barclay Benbow was assigned as guardian of the children. Are there any death records this early? I would like to know if she died in childbirth. I would like to know where the children lived after Thomas died. In the will for Thomas West, it lists his second wife, Nancy and children: Susan, Edy, Elizabeth, Edward, William and Rachel. I believe the first four were Mary's children. In a Settlement by Guardian 1845, Barclay lists: Edith Skinner, Elizabeth West and Edward West. Thank you, Cindy
