I am looking for help finding additional information about John Benson in County Leitrim, my 3rd great grandfather. (The surname might be Benison or Bennison.)
John Benson born about 1795 and married Catharine (unknown surname) who was born about 1799. They had three children prior to leaving Ireland: Mary born about 1826, Margaret born about 1828, and John Jr born about 1830. I believe they left Ireland between 1830 and 1832. The also had three children in New York, Catharine about 1832, Sarah about 1834, and Ann about 1836. John died on 3 Oct 1850 in West Troy (present day Watervliet), Albany County, New York. His headstone notes that he was 55, and a native of Ireland, County Leitrim. I have been at a dead-end on my genealogical research using Ancestry.com and RootsIreland, including passenger lists, for several years.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
