Thanks Brian. Yes it does seem to be difficult to trace over there. I found that there was a family of Bensons in Shankill as was also one of Irvings. I even tried to find stuff from church yards. I presume they were protestant. The birth of Peter in 1809 will be the clue . There's no record of that in Scotland, although they lived there in Gatehouse of Fleet- ( in sight of Ireland) till they split up. Most went to central Scotland but one went to Cheshire in England. My family tree is to be found on Genes United.
Keep looking. . .and thanks again - yours. . .Erik Benson.
