If you review the Fairfax Virginia Monthly meeting records you will see Benjamin as the son of Amos and Elizabeth;The family moves to Westland 24da 7mo 1790
There is no marriage listed listed in Hinshaw at the Westland MM. The next entry is
22da 12mo 1798 Benjamin request reinstatement
It is hard to tell why Benjamin needs to be reinstated and what his indiscretion was. You may not be aware that the Quakeress that Hinshaw had extracted the data from the original records censored them.
22da 8mo 1801 Catherine Hough and children Amos, Elizabeth and Rachel were received on request
27da 3mo 1802 Benjamin, Catherine and children above are all requesting transfer to Concord MM in Ohio
Hope this helps
