These are my wife's family roots on her fathers side. Her mothers family are the Stevenson's and Fitzpatricks and they come from Ireland.
Benjamin Bethel was born in England some time before 1740. My wifes Iowa relatives worked on the family history in 1970's and traced the family back through Pennsylvania to England in the 1740's. I started working on this when we found the 1970's work sheets in my wife's mothers papers. This is still a work in progress.
Thanks to Mary Baily of Iowa who started this project, and to Judy Dombrowski, David Bethel, my wife Ellen , her sister, Rosemary.
