Philip Riou Henry BENSON       (ID #I9789)

(male)
Father: Moses George BENSON (b. 20 JAN 1797, d. 11 APR 1871)
Mother: Charlotte Riou BROWNE (b. 1801, d. 1875)

 

Family notes say he was a Midshipman lost at sea when HMS Captain overturned and sank in the Bay of Biscay. This was the first British ship with revolving gun turrets. However, the disaster occurred on 07 sep 1870, and not on 11 jan 1866, the death date given in Burke's Landed Gentry. Further, Philip Benson is not on the list of casualties.

Ivar Romo, archivist at Shropshire, discovered the solution to this puzzle while cataloguing papers of the Benson family. Philip Henry Benson died in the wreck of the SS London, bound for New Zealand, in the Bay of Biscay, on 11 Jan 1866 (source: Kelly's Directory of Shropshire, 1891, p 311). He was a partner in a cattle-rearing project in New Zealand (source: letters in the Benson collection, Shropshire Archives 809).
