Of this family of Lincolns there was one (not in the list on page 22,) named Dimick Lincoln. After his parents death he lived for several years with Mr. Peleg Standish, of Sempronius, N. Y., when he went away a young man, as he said to visit the old world. No account of him has since been found.
The youngest of the Lincoln children was Benjamin (205.) He was a baby when his parents died. He was reared by his sister Betsey, with whom he lived a time. Later in life he went to Ohio, at or near where his sister Marilla, Mrs. Prichard, lived. About the year 1849, he came to Otisco (now Belding), Mich., where his uncle Dimick Ellis (72) then lived, in his old age with his son Lewis (241.) Benjamin Lincoln at this time was a great sufferer from rheumatism, to such an extent that he was helpless. His uncle Dimick´s children, Richard and Lewis Ellis, and daughter Mrs. Desiah Ellis Belding lived here. These were Benjamin´s cousins, with whom he remained for about three years until his death. His disease took on the form of consumption, which proved fatal about 1853. He is remembered as a man of great patience and amiability of character, beloved by all.
Marilla Lincoln (201), was born Feb. 3rd, 1805. She married Sheldon C. Prichard Feb. 22nd, 1819. Mr. Prich- ard was born Aug. ist, 1802.

Mr. and Mrs. Prichard were members of the Presbyterian Church, and were highly respected and up-right people. .Their children were Alonzo, born 1824. He married a Worden, sister of Dr. S. T.

Polly Lincoln (199), married John Rose and they were in Niles, Cayuga Co., N. Y., for a time about 1834. No further report from them.
Betsey Lincoln (202), probably married a Worden. Where they lived was not known to the other relatives. As said above when Capt. Samuel and Jane Ellis Lincoln died in 1812 their children were widely scattered, and some of them became lost to each other as well as to their other more distant relatives. This was a matter of grief and sadness in after life to the others, who felt a loneliness thereafter.
