I saw several Benjamin Merritts in NC census reports as well as Escambia County, FL reports. My Merritt ancestors came from Halifax County, NC and settled in Jackson County, FL. It is told in my family that some of our Merritts moved to the Pensacola area later because they had relatives over there. Do you have any tie in for your Benjamin or other Merritts to a Charles b. ca. 1690,William b. ca. 1714, Thomas b. ca. 1749, Shadrach b. NC ca. 1769, Ethington J. Merritt b. NC 1809, Alexander S. Merritt b. FL 1831. Ethington who was born in Halifax County, NC and first bought land in 1843 in Jackson County, FL. A Shadrack shows up with Ethington J. on the 1840 voters roll for Jackson County. We have Ethington's wife as Margaret Gunter b. ca. 1811 . I saw a Benjamin Merritt married a Mary Gunter in Escambia County. Do you have any data on the Gunter family? I can't find them on the census reports. Any information would be of interest.Regards,Clarke Blanton
