!SOURCE: Representative Men and Old Families of Rhode Island (Chicago: J.H. Beers, 1908), 3:2153, 2162. States that Benjamin died in the 100th year of his age. Also indicates that there are two possible pairs of birth and death years, depending on the sources used: 1688-1788, 1686-1786. Seems to prefer the former.
