    Marriage 2 UNKNOWN b: ABT 1815
    • Married: ABT 1832
    • Note: Benjamin House probably married the first time between 1830 and 1833. This assumption is based on the age of his first known child who was born in 1833 and the absence of Benjamin as a head of household on the 1830 census. It is assumed that he is still included in his father's household in 1830. I found a marriage on 20 Jan 1834 for a Benjamin House to and Elizabeth House and had thought this might be his first marriage, but it has since been disproven. He married Nancy Humphrey on 11 Jan 1849, in Carroll Co, TN. (Transcribed Marriage Records 1838-1860, Vol. B, p. 182). 7
