Thomas Bench (the younger) was baptised on 11 June 1565 in Lillington, Warwickshire County, England.

He was mentioned in the will of his grand-father, also named Thomas Bench (the elder).  The will was written at least by 16 day in 1565, and was probated on 19 March 1565, so it would be safe to say he was born on or before 16 March 1565.

Attached is the 1565 Lillington baptism record for Thomas Bench (the younger).

The 1565 will of his grand-father is listed in his forum record.

Edward Ingram and Elizabeth Bench were married (by banns) on 1 December 1806 in Church Lawford parish, Warwickshire, England.

Edward and Elizabeth made there mark, meaning neither could write at that time. Edwards brother William Ingram witnessed the marriage (William could write, and signed his name).  The other witness was Elizabeth Colledge, who made her mark.

Attached is the 1806 Church Lawford marriage record.

Note: For more on the children of this family, it will be listed in the Edward Ingram ca1777 forum.

Job Bench was baptised in Southam Parish, Warwickshire County, England on 25 April 1693.

I have seen several entries in other online records that list his name erroneously as Jebthe Bench.  The entry is a little difficult to read, because the word  "Job" and the word "the" run very close to each other.  The "o" is mistaken for an "e", hence many folks listed him as Jebthe Bench, instead of Job Bench.  If you look at all entries above and below Job's, you clearly see the clerk/scribe using the word "the" after each persons first name.  If you increase the size of the .pdf, you can also see the "o" vice "e".

Attached is Job's 1693 Southam parish baptism record.
