- Benjamin, only child of Benjamin (1) Grant, was born in New London or Lyme, and was for a short time at Cambridge and Watertown, in 1693-94. Before the close of the latter year he removed to Wrentham, Massachusetts, and died there September 11, 1726. His wife Priscilla, died May 23, 1754. Children, recorded in Wrentham: Benjamin, mentioned below; Joshua, born December 16, 1697; Joseph, January 6, 1700; Priscilla, December 20, 1701; Deborah, November 9, 1703; died young; Mary, February 16, 1707; Ruth, May 30, 1709; Moses, May 17, 1710; Ebenezer, September 3, 1714; Miriam, July 8, 1716; Beriah, November 9, 1718. His descendants were very numerous in Cumberland, Rhode Island, and in Wrentham, Rehoboth and Swansea, Massachusetts. The imperfect character of the records in the latter town makes it impossible to gather many particulars concerning them.
