HISTORY OF ANDOVER.
were sons of RICHARD, who was the son of Capt. ROBERT and MARY SEELY, at one time residents of Watertown, Mass.
The family that lived on Boston Hill was descended from THOMAS; BENONI was the ancestor of the four other families.
Five men in Andover named BENJAMIN CILLEY were known by special names:
The first BENJAMIN, 1742-1822, who kept a tavern at the Center, was "AFFY BEN."
His son, BENJAMIN, 1766-1847, was "MOMPEY BEN."
BENJAMIN, the son of JOHN, 1765-1824, was "GREAT BEN."
BENJAMIN, the son of EDMUND H., 1813-1863, was "CAPT. BEN." BENJAMIN DARLING, the son of PHILIP, 1803-1876, was "BEN D."
The wife of the first BENJAMIN was APPHIA. hence "AFFY BEN." The second BENJAMIN lived on "MOMPEY" Hill.
The third BENJAMIN owed his distinctive name to his size.
