Individual Details

Daughter was possibly Mary who married Benjamin Mosby c 1718 according to Poindexter book. Pettitt book does not list Benjamin Poindexter at all; says Mary might have been a daugher of George Poindexter IV. Dates of the Mosbys are very confused.

Origin of Benjamin Poindexter.
At present, we have no direct evidence for the parentage of Benjamin Poindexter. However, we do have a number of pertinent facts on his family and descendants. His wife was named Ann, and they had a daughter Mary who married Benjamin Mosby. The oldest son of Benjamin and Mary was Littleberry Mosby, who was born 1729 and died 1809. If we assume that Mary was at least 18 years old at Littleberry’s birth, and that Benjamin Poindexter was at least 21 at Mary’s birth, then Benjamin would have been born in 1690 or earlier. His will was written in 1765 and
implemented in 1766; thus by probable maximum lifespan, a birthdate earlier than 1690 rapidly becomes increasingly unlikely. Susanna, wife of George-1 Poindexter, had her first child about 1650 So her last child would have been born about 1675 at the latest. George-3 Poindexter seems to have had his first child around 1705. The known children of George-2 were born between 1685 and 1708. Back in Jersey, the only recorded Benjamin was born around 1640; he had no recorded children. So we tentatively assign Benjamin as son of George-2 Poindexter.
