Benjamin FUTRELL^[1]

1847 - 1925  (78 years)

• Name	Benjamin FUTRELL
  	Name sometimes spelled Futrelle, Futrell or Futral (seems phonetic by enumerator). Often transcribed incorrectly due to handwriting.
  Nickname	Benjamin, Ben
  Birth	c 1847	North Carolina   [2]
  Gender	Male
  COMM	1847	Onslow Co, NC   [3]
  	AD 1850 US Census for Lewis [Futral] Futrell enumerates a Daniel Futral, 3 years of age. Daniel does not show up on 1860 census, but Benjamin, age 13, does. My supposition after research is that they are the same person, though I cannot find a Daniel Benjamin of Benjamin Daniel, or Daniel in Onslow or surrounding counties. (3 Jul 2018).
  Occupation	1880, 1900, 1910	Richlands, Onslow Co, NC   [2, 4, 5]
  	Benjamin worked in the turpentine industry in 1880. On 1900 and 1910 censuses his occupation is listed as farming.
  Residence	1880-1910	Richlands, Onslow Co, NC   [2, 4, 5]
  Death	3 Feb 1925	Richlands, Onslow Co, NC   [6]
  	Benjamin died at 1:40pm. Cause of death was given as mitral regurgitatation (a disorder of the heart in which the mitral valve does not close properly and blood leaks backwards).
  Burial	4 Feb 1925	Richlands, Onslow Co, NC   [6]

  Family	Mary BRINSON,   b. c 1845, North Carolina d. prior to 30 Apr 1910 (Age 65 years)
  Marriage	c 1871  [4]
  Notes	1900 US Census noted that Mary had given birth to 8 children. Four were living on 12 Jun 1900. I question whether Mary is daughter of Benjamin and Mary Brinson. Mary would have been 55 years old at the time of daughter's birth. Could this be another grandchild?
