Data for this family from "Benton Genealogy" p64.

There is a one page "sketch of Caleb Bingham" on p 68. Caleb was the fourth
child of Daniel Bingham (son of this Jabez) and Daniel's wife Hannah Conant.

The sketch says Daniel, Jabez (Jr) and Silas Bingham came from Windham, CT to
Salisbury, CT in 1750, followed by their father Jabez (Sr) and the rest of the
family a few years later.

The rest of the sketch gives some details of Caleb's life and his friendship
at Dartmouth College with "the somewhat notorious Stephen Burroughs" son of
"the venerable Eden Burroughs." Rev Walter Benton had a copy of Stephen
Burrough's "Memoirs" in his library, which contains two letters written by
Caleb Bingham to the author.

Notes for Alexander Stewart:
.

From "Benton Genealogy", p 63:

"The mother of the SARAH BINGHAM, born in Salisbury, Ct., June 9, 1765, who
became the wife of David Benton, Jr., Mar. 2, 1784, was Sarah, daughter of
Alexander and Anne Stewart, who were at Norwich, Ct., as early as 1736, as its
town records show that he bought land there in that year. They also show that
children were born to them there, as follows: John in 1737, Elizabeth in 1739,
and Alexander in 1742.

"His Christian and surname indicate a Scottish nativity. The daughter Sarah
was probably also born in Norwich, and in 1735, as would appear from a sample
of her skill in worsted work, now in possession of Miss Harriet N. Lyon of
Bath., N.Y. The piece, after displaying the alphabet in capitals, sets forth
these words and figures, also in capitals: YEAR . 1752. 3689 . SARAH STEWART .
HER SAMPLER . AGE 17 . She married Benjamin Bingham at Windham, Conn., Oct
15, 1754."

      328. Abraham Vermilya (Source: Dorothy Benton, Dorothy Benton's DAR Paperwork.), born Abt. 1716 in Yonkers, NY (Source: Dorothy Benton, Dorothy Benton's DAR Paperwork.); died Abt. 1784 in Yonkers, NY (Source: Dorothy Benton, Dorothy Benton's DAR Paperwork.). He was the son of 656. John Vermilya and 657. Sarah Odell. He married 329. Mehetabal ???.

      329. Mehetabal ??? (Source: Dorothy Benton, Dorothy Benton's DAR Paperwork.), born Abt. 1728 in NY?; died Aft. 1782 in Yonkers, NY?.

Notes for Abraham Vermilya:
Data for family from Benton Genealogy, p 72 which says:

-Abraham's wife's name "is accepted on the authority of Mr. Thomas E. Vermilya
[JHBenton's correspondent], as it is given in Riker's History of Harlem..."
and is supported by her descendents being named Mehetabel. She was mentioned
only as "beloved wife" in his will which was executed 15 Feb 1782 and proved
20 July 1784, the latter the year of his death. "His sons John and Edward
were his executors. He was bequeathed, besides other devises by his father's
will, the homestead of one hundred acres at Yonkers."

This last sentence is confusing but I think JHB means Abraham Vermilya 1716-84
got the farm from his father John. The problem was, John died in 1786,
outliving his son Abraham by two years, so it's not clear who got the farm in
the end.-(JBC 1995)

-"NOTE--The names [of the children: John, Sarah, William, Abraham, Edward] are
given in the order mentioned in the will, and presumably in that of their
birth.
"Their father, who was born about 1716, presumably married late in life, as
his wife is said to have been born in 1728, a statement that harmonizes with
the births of their children, as John, the eldest child, alleges in his
pension claim in 1818, that he was then 63 years of age, which, if correct,
gives 1755 as the year of his birth."

In the name of God, Amen. I, ABRIHAM VERMILYA, of the Yonkers, Westchester County, yeoman. I leave to my beloved wife one third of my estate as long as she liveth. To my son John, oe100, to be paid to him by my sons, Abraham and Edward, equal alike. To my daughter, Sarah Hustis, wife of Soloman Hustis, oe100, to be paid by my sons, Abraham and Edward, equal alike. To my son William, oe100 paid by my sons, Abriham and Edward. To my son Abriham, one half of the farm I now live on, with half my salt meadow at Kings Bridg, and half my moveable estate. To my son Edward, the other half of the above. My sons, Abraham and Edward, shall share alike of all my lands, buildings and moveables. I make my sons, John and Edward Vermilye, executors.

Dated February 15, 1782. Witnesses, Joel Mead, Frederick Vermilya, of Yonkers, yeoman, and William Betts. Proved, Westchester County, July 1, 1784. Confirmed, New York, July 20, 1784.

     
Children of Abraham Vermilya and Mehetabal ??? are:
  i.   John Vermilya, born Abt. 1755 in Yonkers, NY; died 22 Oct 1821 in Otego, Oswego, NY?.
  Notes for John Vermilya:
.
"JOHN, [was] evidently the pensioned Revolutionary soldier, who died at Otego,
Oswego Co., N.Y., Oct 22, 1821. The widow applied in 1853, alleging their
marriage (not the first) in 1816, at Sidney, Delaware Co., N.Y.
-From Benton Genealogy p72-no children were mentioned


  ii.   Sarah Vermilya, born Abt. 1756 in Yonkers, NY; married Solomon Hustis; born Abt. 1750 in Yonkers, NY?.
  Notes for Sarah Vermilya:

no children mentioned


  Notes for Solomon Hustis:
In the name of God, Amen. I, SOLOMON HUSTIS, of Philips's Manor, Westchester County, yeoman, being very weak but of perfect mind and memory. All my just debts and funeral charges to be paid.
I leave to my son Solomon, the farm in Dutchess County with the appurtenances, with this reserve: to pay a certain bond of oe100 to John Hunt, of Philips's Manor; and likewise oe30, which is part of a note I owe Madam Oglesby; likewise, unto him oe15. Unto my son Charles, oe15. Unto my sons, Jesse and Samuel, my negro boy named Taf. Unto my sons, Jonathan and Edward, oe15 each. Unto my oldest daughter, Bershaba, oe20; likewise two milk cows and my bilsted cupboard and her feather bed and bedding. Unto my daughters, Mary, Phebe and Sarah, oe15 each. Unto my son in law (???) Williams, ten shillings. The reason why I make this statement: he had his portion before. Unto my sons, Jesse and Samuel, the house and lot in the City of New York in Queen Street near Mr. Kisick's; and the farm whereon I now live in Philips's Manor, with everything thereunto belonging; Also, my household goods and moveable effects, with this condition: that they maintain my son John for life, in victuals, drink, washing, mending, and lodging, and at his death a Christian burial; likewise to maintain my loving wife Phebe for life; she to have the best room in the house to live in, a milk cow to her use, and Bersheba to live with her; my wife to have a decent Christian burial. I make Solomon Hustis, Jesse Hustis, and Samuel Hustis, my three sons, executors.

It also suggests they had a daughter Mehatabel, in the discussion of the name
of the wife of Abraham Sr
