Ben given name was Berend but he always went by Ben. Ben's great grandfather & 2nd great grandfather, on his mother's side, were both named Berend.

From about 1910-1930 Ben worked as a blacksmith.
In the 1930's he had his own auto repair shop in his garage.
1937 he went to work for Chris Craft Boat Co. and worked there till his retirement in 1955.

Ben was very handy-could repair most anything. Built a merry go round for the grandkids + a go cart.
