Note:
* on Aug.31,1844, at the age of 19, Benjamin is reported to have been dismissed from the rolls of the Secona Baptist Church near Pickens, SC for "disobeying the authority of the church". It is believed that the reason for this dismissal was that he got the mother of Sallie Dillard in a "family way". He was restored to fellowship June 1853 and was elected a deacon in 1854.
In a letter from "B. Holder" dated April 7, 1915 to George McDuffie's THOMPSON's son Rev. Harry McLean THOMPSON, it is believed that tacit kinship was acknowledged and Harry referred to 'B. Holder's' letter as being from his 'grandfather'. Benjamin was known for being a fire and brimstone Baptist preacher whose pulpit career spanned 60 years.
Text of the letter reads -
"I shall have to clain kin to able me to start my letter can't write much too nervous have to write with pencil.
