Dear Scotty,
The significant thing about John Bentley b. 22 Jun 1700 at Kingstown, RI is that his mother, Ruth Barber, was a descendant of the Mayflower Pilgrim, George Soule-via her mother, Susannah (West) Barber b.23 Oct 1677, RI , wife of Moses Barber - and Susannah's mother, Susannah (Soule) West b. abt 1642, Duxbury, Plymouth, MA, wife of Francis West - and her parents George Soule of Eckington Worcester, England and Mary Bucket of the ship "Anne" arriving Plymouth July 1623.
John Bentley was the son of William Bentley (Jr) b.6 Jul 1677 at Richmond, RI and (1) Elizabeth (Gardner ?) m. 1699 - via parents William Bentley b. 29 Aug 1640, Ampthill, Bedfordshire, England and Sarah Eldred b. 10 Oct 1650, Yarmouth, Barnstable, MA.
William Bentley b. 1640 is listed as a passenger aboard "Arabella" which left Gravesend, England on May 27, 1671 arriving Boston. His parents were John Bentley b. 5 Nov 1608, Ampthill, Bedfordshire and Mary Betts b. 1613, Elstrow, Bedfordshire.
John Bentley b. 1700 is reported to have had three wives: Elizabeth Gardiner m. 30 May 1727 - Mary Cottrell m. 21 Dec 1749 - and Mary Vaughn m. 25 Apr 1765. I have three known children of first marriage: Benedict b. 1 Jan 1741/42, RI - Gardiner b. 1 Oct 1744, RI - Susannah b. abt 1749, RI.
