Family is more than just a name—it’s the legacy of the lives we’ve built, the challenges we’ve overcome, and the stories that shape us. As we prepare for the Benton Family History Exhibit at our upcoming family reunion, we invite EVERYONE to contribute!
This exhibit isn’t just about military heroes or famous family members—it’s about honoring all of us. From hard-working ancestors who labored in fields and factories to educators, caregivers, entrepreneurs, church leaders, and everyday people who made a difference in their communities. Your story matters, and we want to recognize every branch of our family tree.
Ways to Contribute:
✅ Share a brief story about a family member (past or present) who has impacted your life.
✅ Submit old photographs, newspaper articles, obituaries, family bibles, birth or marriage certificates.
✅ Provide documents related to land ownership, businesses, or community service.
✅ Highlight everyday heroes—parents, teachers, nurses, activists, and those who worked hard to create opportunities for future generations.
Let’s preserve our family history together! Your contributions will ensure that future generations know the incredible journey of the Benton family.

Help Our Family Members In Need!
For the first time since the Great Migration, descendants of Frank and Martha Benton will reunite on the land our ancestors purchased in 1870—just after emancipation.
This land, held by our family for 121 years, is where our story of freedom and legacy began. Now, we have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to walk on it together, reconnect, and celebrate our roots.
Your sponsorship ensures that no one is left behind.
Help us bring every branch of the family tree home.
