[N2857] Benjamin was vicar of Newchurch from 1869 to 1875. On his death his wife gave a new chalice to the church of Newchurch to replace the one bequeathed by John the 'Advocante' in 1472 which had been lost during the Reformation.

Benjamin of Newchurch had five sons, Benjamin, Cramer, Raymond and Murton and Mitford, of which the latter was living in New York in 1955.
