BENJAMIN KELLOGG {201} <1.2b.3a.4f.5e.6e.7c>, son of Daniel {46} <1.2b.3a.4f.5e.6e> b. 1704; m. Elizabeth.

He d. about 1749.

He was a farmer; rem. from Norwalk to the western part of Wallingford, Conn., in that part which was set off and incorporated as the town of Cheshire. He bought land, 7 Dec. 1724, on the west side of the river near the West Rocks. Perhaps his father, Daniel, also owned land in Wallingford, since Benjamin owned land there, jointly with his three brothers and bought them out 5 Mar. 1732. He owned a large tract of land in the eastern part of Cheshire and appears to have been prosperous, for at his death his estate inventoried, personal property, <9c>1,517, and realty, £1,135. The only tradition that remains of him was his great dislike of the Indians.

She m. (2) before 11 Jan. 1756, Thomas Andrus.
