Hi Dr. Crawford - I have not verified if this is the same Isabel Benn.The birth year and location are the same.She is buried in the W. Windsor Cemetery on North Rd, as are the Benn's you mentioned.On NYS Gen web site, Broome County online cemetery listings, this Isabel is listed with Smith Rockwell's parents Ogden and Sarah A. Rockwell.Since I am descended from Smith's second marriage, I have not investigated his first marriage in any detail.The information I have is from Montgomery genealogy, privately published in 1927, research done on John and Lucy (Covey) Rockwell, and a copy of Smith and Isabel Rockwell genealogy done by their descendents.If you think there is a connection, or if I find out more information, I would be happy to share.Hoping to do Benn family lookups at the Broome County Library soon.You can EMail me direct at [email protected] - Regards, Kathy
