Benjamin (1827-1905)  receive little coverage in the letters but does emerge as a correspondent, writing three of the letters in the archive.  The two final letters come from his pen.  They tell of his rather splendid trip away to Taynton Farm and of the time spent there together with his cousin Asher Lousley.  Time would show Benjamin as the heir to the Slade property in Aston Upthorpe.  He has married by the 1851 Census - perhaps a Slade herself - and appears running 600 acres of the total.  He follows in the line, but not completely, of his grandparents by producing eleven children.  Henry, now also married, looks after 400 acres.  At Henry’s death, Benjamin would include that acreage into his own.
