Benjamin McConnell and Elizabeth Hains/Haines McConnell:
WEC: "Benjamin McConnell and his twin brother Joseph were born in Ireland, 1742, and came to Long Island, New York about 1765. Joseph died young. Benjamin married Elizabeth, daughter of Matthew Hains, Jr., 1770, and went to Weymouth, Nova Scotia, at the time of the Revolution, where he died Dec 28, 1808, and was buried in the Church of England Cemetery. His widow died in 1828, aged 77." (p. cvi)
Sheila Stewart gives his birthdate as 1749, not 1742.
"This may be incorrect. To be researched. I believe that Benjamin and Joseph are brothers.
A Loyalist. Moved his family to Nova Scotia at the close of the Revolution.
Came to Weymouth, Nova Scotia in the sloop «i»Shoulderham«/i» from New York in May 1784, after a boisterous and prolonged voyage of nine weeks -- having lost her bowsprit in Grand Passage. Samuel Doty the Loyalist, a blacksmith, Alexander Haines, Joseph McConnell, senior, brother of Benjamin, and others, were also passengers. She landed south of Campbell's old wharf. After being repaired she sailed with most of her passengers for their destination in Annapolis. Benjamin McConnell located on farm east of Weymouth Point, adjoining Benjamin Chapel on western side. The site for that edifice was afterwards presented by his widow.
Died in his 60th year."
