I am looking for descendants and ancestors of Charley E. (Elbert) Benbrook. I believe he may have been a physician. He married Margaret Lafferty daughter of Lorenzo Dow Lafferty and Elvira Criswell. Margaret Lafferty was from Izard Co. Arkansas. The father of Lorenzo Dow Lafferty was John Lafferty or Ireland and Sarah Lindsey of pure scots blood. John Lafferty's father I beleive to be Thomas Lafferty who originially may have come through VA then to Rutherford Co., NC. John Lafferty went from there to Tenn, to GA back to Sumner Co., TN then up the White River with various other families from Sumner Co., TN area and the neighboring KY area. They settled what was then Independeanco Co which included Izard Co. and Stone Co., AR. They settled there about 1808 or so.
I am descendant From Jacob Binks Lafferty brother to Lorenzo Dow Lafferty. through Binks son John Annis Lafferty b. 1838 in AR through his son James Annis Lafferty born 1875 in TX. James was my father. I was born 1942 the last of the 15 children James had with 3 wives. I did a Lafferty book in 1995 and am presently collecting for another.
Mary Lafferty Wilson.
