• Obituary, Monmouth Daily Review, 29 Jun 1896

The death of Benjamin Hutchinson occurred Friday night June 26. For a long time he has been sick with nervous prostration. The deceased was born Nov. 10, 1821, and was 74 years of age. When he was a mere boy his father moved to Oquawka, in 1832 or 33. (Was in 1833..F.H.) Afterwards he settled on the Capt. Hogue farm. He was quite a traveler. When a young man, he made an overland trip to California and visited the Pacific Coast. He returned by water, crossed the Isthmus and landed in New York. In 1854, he was united in marriage to Ann B. Moore in Iowa City, Iowa. Six children were born, all of whom are living, except one. In 1869, his wife died and in 1870 he was married to Elizabeth Grant. Two children were born, Anna and Ralph.

He was an intelligent man, did his own thinking and was possessed of a wonderful memory. He was a successful business man. His bible was much read and familiar to him. The funeral services were held from the residence, southwest of town, yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock, being conducted by Rev. Logan of Smith Creek. The remains were interred in Center Grove Cemetery.

(Note: Elizabeth Grant's maiden name was Evans. Evidently had been married to a Mr. Grant.)
