Birth: Jun. 19, 1881 Sussex County Delaware, USA Death: May 25, 1958 Mount Holly Burlington County New Jersey, USA Benjamin, a child of Thomas J. and Sarah Ann (nee Palmer) Wilson, grew up in and near Lewes, Sussex County, DE. He was the husband of Ella Elizabeth Knowles Hagerty Wilson (1896-1957, daughter of Willard Saulsbury and Susie A. [nee Kirby] Knowles), who was born in or near Woodland, Sussex County. The couple wed in Milton, Sussex County, on 17 January 1914. They resided, during all of their married years together, in Lewes, where they raised their family. Children: Freda May (nee Hagerty [Ella's child from her short-lived first marriage to William P. Hagerty], 1911-2007, wife of Joseph T. McCoog, Sr.), Sarah Anna (1915-1994, wife of a Schmidt, then Forest Moorhead, Sr.), Benjamin Thomas "Tom" (1916-1988, husband of Stella Elizabeth Lewandowski), Lester Clifton, Sr. (1919-1971, husband of Mary Sophie "Sophie" Bienkowski), Elizabeth Anna (1922-1922), Anna Elizabeth (1924-1989, wife of Norman Long, Sr.), Harry Paynter (1926-2002, husband of Muriel and Kathy), Ethel Maull (1928-c1997, wife of George Jones, then a Martz), and Burton Charles, Sr. (1930-2009, husband of Irene Voss). Although Benjamin and Ella's tombstone shows his birth year as having been 1874, he definitely wasn't born during the 1870s, and the correct year was almost certainly 1881.
