Looking for any information regarding Ruth Benedict, widow of William
Benedict (her 2nd husband, first unknown) and a resident of Alexander,
NY - she was born in 1752 Danbury, Conn - Ruth apparently will lead me
to the ancestors of Abigail Hawley Peck, born 1760 Danbury and who died
in Alexander, NY 1844 - this was a path suggested by the Conn
Genealogical Society who cannot trace Abigail Hawley's line for me - in
Abigail's widow's application for the Rev War, Ruth is listed as a
relative and attests to her very being (Abigail's that is) and in
White's genealogical abstracts of rev war pension files, Abigail &
Eliphalet Peck are listed under information for Ruth Benedict. Any help
on this interesting search will be appreciated. Faye Cox
