5. | Nancy BENEDICT (1.Joseph1) was born in 1756; died about 1848. Notes:
"The Genealogy of the Benedicts in America": It is said of her that "she was superior in education to those around her, and that she was constantly teaching her neighbors to read and write." In 1776, when Gen. Howe advanced northward from New York, she mounted her horse, and with other heroic women, followed the army and witnessed the battle of White Plains.. Joseph lived near the "neutral ground," and had in his employ one David Williams, who, when not engaged in military service (the whigs who encountered the "Cowboys" in their excursions into the country were generally in the mlitia service on short enlistments), made the house of his employer his welcome home. Thus it happened that Williams was enjoying an agreeable "tete-a-tete" with Nancy Benedict, in the fall of 1780, when she pointed out to him a small company of armed men approaching their village. the entered an inn near by, and Williams, having recognized Isaac Van War John Paulding and others, they set out together for Tarrytown; the especial object of Williams being to reclaim the property of a neighbor, the widow Pelham, or aenge the death of her husband, killed the night before by a party of Cow-boys. At Tarrytown, Williams, Paulding and his cousin Van Wart separated from their companions, taking the east road, at an angle of which they concealed themselves, obtaining a north and west view of it for some distance. The approach of Major Andre, his arrest, etc., followed. Congress having granted Williams, Nov. 3, 1780, a medal, a yearly annuity of $200, in specie, or an equivalent in current money, during life; also, the privilege of locating any confiscated lands in the county of Westchester, to the value of $1,250, or of receiving the said sum in cash, he married nancy Benedict, and with the $1,250 bought a part of the farm owned by his father-in-law and settled upon it, erecting a log cabin to live in"......."In the fall of 1830, he visited the city of New York on the invitation of the corporatio, to be present as a guest at the celebration of the French revolution. Here he received all manner of attentions, and was presented with a silver cup, a silver-headed cane, an elegant horse, carriage and harness. He died at Broome, Schoharie Co., Aug. 2, 1831. After her husband had been dead ten years, Mrs. Williams obtained a continuance of his pension, which had been stopped at his death, receiving $2,000 at once." She died about 1848, in her 92nd year...

Notes:
Name:
During the two years 1858 and 1859, a number of new families located in the Des Moines settlement, among whom were David Slosson, John A. James, Perry Nowlen, Henry and William Jarvis, Ora Harvey, .F. Avery, James Edelman, Hank Brown and John Straight.
David Slosson, in May 1858, came to Pocahontas county, with a family consisting of his wife, Esther Vaughan, who died in 1875, three sons - Oscar, Orland and Edmond - all of whom were young men, and one daughter, Ann, who became the wife of Eomeyn B. Fish and is still a resident of the county. On his arrival, David Slosson located on section 26, and on September 28, 1858, entered his preemption claim for lots 1 and 2 and the W1/2NE1/4 of that section, containing 158 acres. His eldest son, Oscar Slosson, December 8, 1860, entered as a pre-emption the SE1/4 Sec. 24, 160 acres, same township, and received the patent for it June 1, 1861; and Orlando, the second son, on January 18 1868, entered as a homestead the NW1/2 Sec. 26, 160 acres, same township and received the patent for it September 1, 1869.
David Slosson was the son of David and Esther (Vaughan) Slosson, his father being of Welsh and his mother of English descent. He was a native of Vermont, where he was born march 11, 1811, near Grand Isle. He received a good common school education, and when quite young moved to New York state, where he learned the shoemakers' trade.
At twenty he married Rachel Vaughan, a cousin, and during the next five years worked at his trade during the winter and on the farm during the summer. He then moved to Summit count, Ohio - later to Clinton County, New York, and in 1846 returned to Summit county, Ohio. The next move was to Michigan, and in 1852 he came to Clinton county, Iowa, where he remained until the time of settlement in this county in 1858.
His next move was to Washington Territory, where his three sons - Oscar married to Julia Towslee, Orlando married to Harriet Halstead and Edmond married to Ellen Savage - still reside. He died there June 30, 1884. His daughter, Mrs. R.B. Fish, resides at Rolfe.
At the time of the organization of this county, David Slosson had the honor to be chosen the first County Judge and served in that capacity from march 21st, the day he qualified, to Dec. 31, 1859. the duties devolving upon this officer were those that are now performed by the Board of County Supervisors. As there was no public building in the county his cabin, which was somewhat central in the Des Moines settlement, became the seat of government for the county, and the public records were kept there until the erection of the first court house, in the fall of 1860.
His administration of the affairs of this county, though limited to a period less than one year, was unusually eventful and has been rendered memorable by thee important contracts that were concluded by him in behalf of the county. These contracts related to the erection of the first court house at Old Rolfe, the construction of the first bridge over the Des Moines river and the special survey of the swamp lands of the county that they might be given in payment for the public building and bridge.
The following item from the record is of interest as showing the salary of the Judge and his systematic method of keeping the record:

On this day, I, David Slosson,County Judge of said county, drew a warrant for $12.50 for one (the first) quarter's salary fee.

The law creating the Board of County Supervisors was enacted in 1860, and in 1861 he had the honor to serve as a member of the first Board of County Supervisors. He also served on his Board during the years 1863 to '67, 1870 to '71 and 1874 to '79, making a period of nearly thirteen years that he served in this capacity, the longest of any inucmbent in that office.
