About James Plummer

FROM: Kentucky Genealogy and Biography, Volume V, Battle – Perrin – Kniffin, 4th ed., 1886 (in a section about Henry Plummer, one of Benjamin's sons)

James Plummer, [Benjamin's father], was born in Maryland, likewise his wife, who before marriage was Miss Dorcas Cash. He immigrated to Mason County, Ky., in 1795, and his almost sole occupation was hunting. As the country became settled, he moved farther away in the pursuit of his favorite sport, so he soon removed to Fleming County, where he and his wife are buried. The Plummer family are of English origin.
