Benjamin Brown, b. in Middle Island, Sept 25, 1784; drowned with ten other men off Old Inlet opposite Bellport, Nov. 5, 1813. This inlet through the Great South Beach, was then known as "New Inlet" and "Smiths Inlet" and has been closed for over a hundred years. His body was recovered and buried in Fire Place and later moved to the Bellport Cemetery.
[He] m. Mary Ann Leek or Leeke. She was b. Aug 20, 1789; d. Apr. 2, 1843. She was probably a Middle Island woman. Children as given in the family Bible formerly owned by the late T. Leverett Brown:
1. Mary Ann, b. Feb 5, 1807; d. Jan 8, 1896. M. Benjamin Tooker, probably of Moriches, L.I., N.Y. by whom she had four children. He died and she m. 2nd, Elihu Hawkins by whom she had a son.
2. Alfred Benjamin, b. Sept 7, 1808. See below.
3. Samuel, b. Oct 2, 1810. He moved away, probably to New Yor or Brooklyn where he died. M. Susan L. Robinson. No record of any children.
4. Dorothy (Dolly), b. Dec 6, 1812; d. of consumption, May 25, 1834.
* This account is ambiguous. Note that just previous it was indicated that Hannah Kinge was his wife, daughter of William and Dorothy Kinge. Perhaps these are typographical errors. No source has been found that indicates that he had a second wife, Dorothy.
** The John Tutthill to whom Richard entrusted his family and estate was not the John Tutthill described here, but rather a neighbor and friend, John Tutthill [i]; this John's wife Deliverance Kinge was a sibling to Hannah Kinge, Richard's wife. A John Tutthill does marry into the family, marrying Richard's granddaughter Elizabeth by his son Jonathan. This John Tutthill [iii] was John Tutthill's [i] grandson.
