Other Members living here and enumerated were:

Polly A. Westbrook, birth est 1821, White, Female, Age 59 yrs, Parents birthplace New York, Occupation - Keeping house
Polly J. Wray, Age 23, Sister in law, Boarder ( I believe this to be Polly A. & Benjamin Westbrook's daughter, married to Wm. Wray)
Hattie M. Wray, Age 5 yrs, Niece, Born Canada
Elvira Wray, Age 3 yrs, Niece, Born Michigan
Henry C. Wray, 5 mos, Nephew, Born Michigan
Rumor has it that Benjamin is also buried at New Road Cemetery in the family plot of Isaac Weeks and wife Nancy (Westbrook)
Location is Conc. 10/ Lot 26, South Norwich Twp, Oxford County, Ontario in Lot 14D. I have not been able to confirm this as no monument to reveal his presence there; but one for Polly Ann (Hall) Westbrook his wife.
Cemetery records mention his name but no date of burial nor specific location; merely his name but no other data available. Will pursue Michigan records in 2010 for possible death/burial in that area thus Benjamin's name would be present to confirm the family tree per se.
In the 1901 Cdn census, Polly Ann (Hall) Westbrook is a widow, thus the time frame for Benjamin's death would be between the years of 1880-1900
