In 1823, Benjamin's father Stephen Landreth, made him a deed for 75 acres on Elk Creek near the Virginia North Carolina border. (a mile from Stephen's home)
In 1824 Benjamin bought 100 acres on Elk Creek from Simeon Taylor.
They left Ashe county, NC in 1842 for Keokuk county, Iowa. Benjamin died before 1850 and Temperance died in the summer of 1862 in Keokuk county, Iowa.
Their sons Squire Benjamin and and William left Keokuk county in 1853 for Oregon by wagon train after years of gold hunting, Indian fighting and working as a grocer.
