In the year 1895 he brought his family to Glasco, Kansas where, with the exception of a short time spent in Concordia and Simpson, he engaged in his trade. For forty-four years he applied himself to his chosen profession. Then Benson Barber Shop was always a friendly place as Mr. Benson had a knack of making friends and was always appreciative of those who patronized his shop. Mr. Benson was a great lover of his home and family, which, beside his loving wife, consisted of twelve children who came to bless the home. Four of the children preceded him in death, Lilly Hope, who died in infancy; William, who went in early boyhood; Mrs. Myrtle McKim and Luke, who died in the bloom of youth. The remaining children are: Mrs. Pearl McClintock, of Simpson; Mrs. Nellie Pilcher, of Glasco; Mr. Roy Benson, of Simpson; Mrs. Leona Maxwell, of Simpson; Richard, of Concordia; John and Mrs. Grace Miles, of Hays; and Carl, of Beloit.
