Who We Are:

My name is David Hawley Smith, Sr. My maternal grandmother was Charlotte Mae Bensinger Webb, the daughter of George William Bensinger and Annie Laura Karchner Bensinger; and the wife of George S. Webb

Many others have helped tremendously to provide insight and content, all contributions are acknowledged.

We have started this page primarily for the convenience and use of Bensinger descendants to share information about photos they may have but cannot identify.
Eventually, I would hope to find the time to expand it into a Bensinger Family Home Page complete with Guestbooks, Family histories, Forums, original certificates etc.
To this end I will accept E-mailed input, and post it as soon as possible.

Limitations:

While you are entirely welcome to view, download and use the files and pictures for your own use, in the interest of quality control we ask that you PLEASE do not electronically republish any pictures or files.

Some files themselves are copyrighted because they have been submitted to the "World Family Tree Project" and are available for purchase commercially on CD from Broderbund.

As to the photos, some are low quality scans for the purpose of ID only and we do not wish to propogate them in that form. If you see a photo you would like to republish, you may either link to our page, or send in a request specifying the format and size and we will get the best possible scan and e-mail it to you for republication free of charge.

Submissions:

If you have pictures to contribute but do not wish to let the originals out of your possession, there are several options for you to use. Send your images to:
Bensinger, C/O Stone Cabin Technologies
4423 Wilawana Road
Elmira, NY 14901-9536

Or E-mail to: (see above)

If you have pictures that you think are Bensingers but cannot ID them, send them anyway with your E-mail address, others viewing the page may be able to shed some light. Please do not throw pictures away because they are not identified. Someone, somewhere knows who they are and that is why we are here.
Pictures of low quality or small size are welcomed. We have software that can make faces identifiable even if they are so small that you can't make them out in the original. Also we can take out scratches, stains, spots and other defects. Even if they are terrible they can often help to ID someone else's perfect condition original and you can get a copy of that!
If there is ANYTHING written on the picture, especially photographer location, please mention it.
