Re: Searching for relatives of Benjamin Cornell (b) 1-14-1803

I am looking to find more info on parents, relations, and locations of my gg-grandfather Benjamin Franklin Cornell.

This is the info I have... dates are not firm, but are the best I can get:

Benjamin Franklin Cornell
b. 1820location?
d. 1895Bucks County, PA
bd. Reformed Church of North
and Southampton, Churchville,
Bucks Co, PA

He married
Elizabeth ?
b. 1820location?
d. 1855Bucks County, PA
bd. Reformed Church of North
and Southampton, Churchville,
Bucks Co, PA

I believe his father was a James Cornell.
His daughter is my g-grandmother:
Sarah Ellen Cornell
b. 06 Apr 1850
d. 28 Jan 1925, Holland PA

There are a number of Cornell families in Bucks County, PA, but I have not been able to establish a link between them and Benjamin, so I have wondered whether he was a more distant relative of the Bucks Co. clans who relocated to Bucks County from somewhere else - such as Ohio?
