About Benajah Brown Gentry

A Patriot of the American Revolution for Virginia. DAR Ancestor #: A044120



From the Reverend Edgar Woods' History of Albemarle, page 47:

"It seems that there were owners of land in Albemarle, whose sympathies ran on the British side during the Revolution. Under the law confiscating the property of such persons to the State, six inquisitions were held in the year 1779 before Peter Marks, the public escheator."

Benajah Gentry was one of the jurors on the panel which sat in Charlottesville.
