We Have A New Benge! Zedekiah Creed.

Meet Zedekiah Creed Benge, 

son of Aaron and Rebecca Benge. Brother to Lukas Benge, Ethan Chezem,
Noah Benge and Esther Benge.

Born Sept 23, 9lb 12.8 oz,

all digits present and accounted for!

His first name comes from the bible, Jeremiah chapter 29 (in Hebrew means "Righteous King"),
and Creed is a family name;
Creed was Tilford's brother
(you can read the post and see a picture of Tilford and Creed by clicking here.)

From what I understand,

Tilford was Albert's father,

who was Henry's father,

who was Cecil's father,

who was my father,

making Creed my Great, Great Uncle,

and Zedekiah's Great, Great, Great Uncle.

Thanks, and thanks again... keep'em coming!

I just wanted to thank everybody for all of the information we've been getting, 

and encourage you all to scan and send old photos if you have any!

My email is: romans833@yahoo.com

Here soon I will start putting up individual pages with each branch of the family, or something of that nature. 

I would like to put an Excel file showing the family tree if anyone happens to have it on their computer. Several years ago at the reunion, I remember seeing it all laid out on a table... If anybody knows where I could come across a copy, I'll post it online.

UPDATED: Photos! Henry & Hazel Benge, the Madox's, Buddy and Sammy

UPDATE: Some of these have been updated recently.

Finally, we have some photos. I will need some help in naming some of the older photos, as I don't remember most of them, aside from my own grandparents, Henry and Hazel Benge. I have no idea what year the pictures were taken, or the birth and death dates of most, so all help is welcome. Enjoy!
