Benjamin Franklin Baldwin 
1789 - 1860 

  

 First Generation 

  	1.  Benjamin Franklin1 BALDWIN was born in SC abt. 1789.  Benjamin died aft Jun 1860 in Madison Co., Mo..  

	He married an unknown person.  1 It is believed Benjamin may have come from South Carolina. Listed in Madison County, 1860 Census as living with Harvey Alexander Smith, his son-in-law.  He was working as a Farm Hand, his Daughter Martha was with him. Benjamin may have been killed in the Battle of Fredricktown during the Civil War.  If anyone has different or further information, please contact me. As you can see, we know very little about Benjamin! 

(note to me: Look for an Emily Placet, married 27 Aug 1830 to Benjamin Baldwin) 

 
          	Benjamin Franklin BALDWIN had the following family: 

      	2 	i. 	Lucky2 BALDWIN was born in Tn.. 
         + 	3 	ii. 	Vardy BALDWIN was born Feb 1820. 
          	4 	iii. 	Truesvan BALDWIN was born in Tn or In Feb 1820.  I think his state of birth would have been Tn. Truesvan and Vardy were twins. 
         + 	5 	iv. 	Sarah BALDWIN was born 17 Apr 1825. 
          	6 	v. 	William (Bill) BALDWIN was born in Tn. abt 1827.  I now believe this place of birth to be Tn., not In. 
         + 	7 	vi. 	Martha BALDWIN was born abt 1831. 
         + 	8 	vii. 	Caleb BALDWIN was born abt 1839. 

 

 Second Generation 

  	3.  Vardy2 BALDWIN (Benjamin Franklin1) was born in Tn or In Feb 1820.  On the census it looks like he was born in IN, but I think it would be more likely for that to be TN. Vardy died 4 Feb 1905 in Higdon, Madison Co., Mo., at 84 years of age.  His body was interred aft 4 Feb 1905 in Higdon, Madison Co., Mo., Christian Cemetery.  

	He married Emmaline SHOULTS in Madison Co., Mo., 24 Dec 1845.2  Emmaline was born in Mo. abt 1828.  Emmaline was the daughter of George SCHULTZ and Sally Sarah HUTSON.  Emmaline died 3 Nov 1931 in Higdon, Madison Co., Mo., at 103 years of age.  Her body was interred aft 3 Nov 1931 in Higdon, Madison Co., Mo., Christian Cemetery.  Emmaline spelled her name different than her father.  So we have these possibilites, Shultz, Schultz, Schoults....... Take your pick. Military-Private, Company F 50th MO Infantry September 20, 1864 through April 16, 1865. Enlisted in Ironton, Iron Co., Mo. His military record describes him as 5'8" tall, fair complexion, auburn hair, blue eyes. Upon completion of his term with the Army, during the Civil War, Vardy reportedly lost hearing in both ears, and was blind in both eyes. The 1870 Madison Co., Census reports Vardy having $1200.oo in real estate, and $500.00 cash. I saw on someone's webpage that Vardy had a B. F. before the name Vardy?  Maybe as in Benjamin Franklin, then where did the Vardy come from? In the 1900 Castor Twp, Madison Co, Mo., Census Vardy and Emily had 1 Son (George W.) and 2 Grand daughters (18 yr old Maude L and 3 yr old Katie) living with them. Also according to the 1900 census Vardy and Emily had 10 children total. I can only account for 8. Note:  We are now gathering information so that we might have a Military type headstone placed on Vardy, anyone with more Military in formation, please contact me.
