john james benham born 1800 england
John James was born in 1750, the son of Lucy Thompson and Christopher James, and it says he was named after his grandfather, John James, who immigrated from England to the new world in 1713.If you have any evidence of their service, I would love to know of it.he first was a son, William, born in 1780 in Hanover County, VA (my 4th great grandfather.) This is about 70 miles NW of where John was born in James County. Then, they moved another 80 miles west and were living in Buckingham County, Virginia in 1783.
