Paula,
Benjamin Ribelin is in the Illinois Death Index; he died 13 December 1948 in Moweaqua, Shelby County, IL.
From census records, he appears to have been born ca 1871 in Illinois. His father was Benjamin F. Ribelin, b. ca 1839 in KY and his mother appears to have been Harriet A. Luck [Hattie], b. ca 1851 in Indiana. Benjamin Ribelin married 1st Hattie Luck, 23 August 1868, in Washington County, Indiana. Benjamin Sr. married 2nd, Ada A. [Addie] Ayars [a widow] 2 June 1876. In 1880 they are in Moweaqua with several Ayars children and Benjamin L. 9 yrs old, listed as Leslie B. Ribelin. Benjamin F. and Harriet Ribelin were in Tazewell County, IL in 1870, page 147, no children at that time. Benjamin L. must have been born soon afer that census. Possibly his mother died at his birth.
I'm not related, just helping.
Regards,
Barbara
