DUKE OF RUTHERFORD???????????
Family lore is my GGGM, Benza (Benzy) Rutherford's grandfather was a Duke in Ireland who had a castle 20 miles outside of Dublin that was destroyed in a Catholic revolution.Isn't that a great fable????????
I have no idea where Benza (who also went by the names of Jane, Francis or Benzy) was born except census found in OH, says Ireland.
According to her death date, she was b. ca 1795.She m. Samuel COOPER in Ire and had 6 daughters b. between 1820-1831.Family came to U. S. in 1831.May have lived in MD for a few years then had a 7th dau in Cleveland, OH before moving to Monroe Co., OH and finally had a son, Sam, Jr.Sam d. bef 1870 and Benza d. after 1880.Would like to find Benza's birth place and parent's names.
