Hello Patricia 6/14/03,
Your inquiry into Benjamin and Comfort is of interest to me as I have a great-great grandfather George who married a Prudence Chilcote. George's father's name was Benjamin and he was born circa 1787 either in Maryland or Pennsylvania. The Huntington County, Pennsylvania area is significant in that Chilcotes and McClains were among the earliest settlers there, coming from Maryland. George and Prudence had a daughter Hannah who married a Heathcote Chilcote, and all of these individuals were in Ohio I believe just prior to the 1830's. I have been doing extensive research into this family but as of yet have not been able to make a connection with Benjamin Chilcote and Comfort.
I have looked at a number of Chilcote family lines but there is much confusion-everyone seems to be SURE of their information! Looking forward to hearing from you.G. Dale
