Benjamin Franklin Estes s/o Bartlett Estes and Elizabeth
Higgins Estes (they were 1st cousins).
I believe he was born in Harrison Co., KY., instead of Montgomery Co., KY., as many have placed his birth. Source:
His father from 1825-1828 Bartlett Estes on Tax List in Harrison Co., KY.
He married Mary Elizabeth Clinkenbeard 23 Jan. 1848 Platte Co., MO. They had 13 children.

Federal Census
1850 Jackson, Gentry Co., MO
1860 DeKalb, Buchanan Co., MO
1870 Liberty, Clay Co., MO
1880 Lincoln, Neosho Co., Kansas
He is mentioned as one of the heirs in father Bartlett Estes Probate of Estate as living in 1880 Neosho Co., Kansas.
His father Bartlett Estes died Intestate.
He was a Confederate sympathizer and would not take the
Oath of Loyalty to the Union.
Benjamin Franklin Estes older brother was Abraham Estes
married to a Sarah E. Clinkenbeard a cousin of his wife Mary Elizabeth Clinkenbeard Estes.
No, confirmation of place of burial. I would guess Little Shoals Cemetery even though no tombstone present for him. His wife Mary Elizabeth Clinkenbeard Estes died 27 Feb 1885 in Liberty, Clay Co., MO., but buried in McCune, Crawford Co., KS. There is possibility that he could be buried with her.
Need to check Liberty Tribune for both of their obituaries.
