Read More	Jonathan Felix Benjamin was the fifth child of seven known children born to Jonathan N. Benjamin and Hannah E. Ford Benjamin. He lived the first part of his life in Burlington, Licking Co., Ohio. He then moved west with other family members at age 29, in 1867 when they all migrated to Jasper County, Iowa. In 1870, Jonathan and his wife were living with his father and mother on a farm in Malaka Twp, Jasper Co., Iowa. The parents had just $150 in personal estate, but Jonathan F. and his wife had $6500 in real estate and $1000 in personal value. Jonathan F. and Hannah E. Marple married in 1863 (probably in Licking Co., Ohio where their first child was probably born) and had six? children: Edson Benjamin (b. 1864, see FAG #62763761), Roland "Rollie" E. Benjamin (b. 1867), William Benjamin (b. 1867), possibly another William (b. 1870), Emma Benjamin (FAG #44708133, b. 1872, married Herman B. Lufkin), and Orlin Dell Benjamin (b. 1878). An infant Benjamin, "son of J.F. and H. E." is buried in the same cemetery, and died in 1873- this may be one of the Williams? though dates do not align. By 1885, the Iowa State Census shows the family living in Twin Lakes, Calhoun, Iowa. They may have returned to Jasper Co though in 1895, where there is an Iowa State census record that has Jonathan's age a few years off. In 1900, Jonathan F. was listed as head of household in the census for Newton (City), living at 748 Main St. at age 60 with his son Orlin and daughter Emma and her husband Herman Lufkin and their 4 y/o son Percy. He is listed as married for 37 years, but his wife is not listed on the page- she had died in March, and the census was taken on 08 Jun 1900. Jonathan was listed as a painter who had been out of work for 2 months, but he did own their home. Jonathan was living alone in 1910, when he may be found in the Federal Census renting on Third St. in Newton, still working as a house painter but not out of work. Jonathan F. Benjamin passed away in March of 1913, age 74.
