Christine,
I found the Benham`s on the 1880 & 1900 census, see below. Also, the family is in this database at Rootsweb`s WorldConnect:
http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:2916872&id=I386251
In 1900 Howard Benham is living with his parents. I`m curious since an article I found on the Monroe Co. Mail list says he was convicted of the murder of his wife in July of 1897. Was he not imprisoned?
The mail list posting is here:
