Clearly his wife lived long enough that she was not a first wife and Mercy a second wife.) A Benjamin Beach from Litchfield married Mercy Blatchley. It should be researched in case there were two men named Benjamin Beach and both marriages are correct. Since the Benjamin Beach we know about lived and died in Cornwall, they could be different men.
