Steve and Jerry,
As far as I know, Epaphroditus Benton didn't leave a Will, but his "Widows Dower and Division of Land" shows his Widow and all of his children that were alive at the time of his death.They are:James Benton; John Benton; Sarah Benton m. Thomas Lipscomb; Mary Benton m.William Browning; Amanda Melvina Benton m. William Rose; Eliza Benton m. Samuel Soloman; Elizabeth Benton m. George Cohea; Green Benton (my GG grandfather)
I believe that Redmon Benton was not a son of Epaphroditus.I do have a copy of the sale of Ep.'s property and it shows Redmon buying several items at the sale.I suspect that Redmon may have been the son of Titus, and maybe Titus was a brother of Ep.Just a guess.
Tom
