The Benton Family Reunion Foundation, LLC
Our Story
The Benton Family is a living testament to resilience, unity, and the enduring strength of family roots. Our story begins with Frank Benton and Martha Freeman, a couple whose legacy of love, perseverance, and determination continues to inspire and guide us today.
Rooted in the fertile soil of Georgia, the Benton family has blossomed into a diverse and thriving lineage. Over the years, we’ve achieved remarkable milestones, from educating future generations to building businesses, leading communities, and breaking barriers in countless fields.
At the heart of our family is a deep pride in our shared history and an unwavering commitment to our core values: faith, hard work, and love for one another. These values have shaped our past and remain the foundation for our future.
As we honor the journey of those who came before us, we celebrate the strength of our bonds and the incredible legacy that unites us all. The Benton Family story is a celebration of who we are, where we come from, and the future we will build—together.

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.
