From other sources:
Benjamin received 201 acres i n his fathers will. In 1774 surveyed the land and it was 200 acres plus a 25 a cre island in the river. From the Bible of Henry Strickler (of Indiana), Benja min's son Samuel was born in Pennsylvania 1759. All of his children may have b een born there.

He may also have been born in Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania .

He may have been born in 1735 In Egypt, Shenandoah, VA and may have diedin 1795.

When Benjamin Strickler died, several obituaries appeared in local pa pers. Each gave a different age for him when he died. But using either date, hi s birth was either 1726 or 1727. I have not seen these obituaries. The Funk His tory states that Benjamin was about 1720-25.
