    • Carolyn Halstead Benson <ncbenson@amigo.net> My line includes the Teed-Halstead connection through Elizabeth Teed and James Halstead's son Nicholas, then Ira, then John Benjamin, then Daniel Ira who was my father's father. I could not find Nicholas in the William Leon Halstead manuscript and I credit Hester Halstead Pier for pointing him out to me.
