Benjamin served in the Pennsylvania Rangers on the frontier. On Col. Crawford's expedition against the Indians at Sandusky, Benjamin is said to have had a hand-to-hand combat with an Indian, which he won. He worked as a farmer. He moved from MD to PA to VA. After he moved to Monongalia Co., Benjamin sued John Brookover in 1817 for scandal. Brookover claimed that Benjamin was a damned old rascal and known to be a liar in Morgantown. Judgment was for the plaintiff in the amount of $99.

Benjamin Alton was born circa 1763 in Baltimore County, Maryland. Benjamin was a farmer and soldier, serving in the Pennsylvania Rangers on the Frontier. He may have been married three times. His first wife may have been the mother of Catherine Allton and Hannah Allton [ancestors of Wilma (Stine) Davis who was co-editor the Allton-Alton Association Newsletter from 1974 to 1980] and Jesse Allton. The Benjamin Alton family Bible once contained birth, death and marriage information on the inside cover. However, in the 1850's it was accidentally dropped into a vat of soap. The ink became badly faded. Then in the 1930's the Bible was rebound, and all such information was lost forever. He married second M. (-----) and they had four children. Benjamin Alton married third Jane (Miller) Armstrong circa 1800 in Greene County, Pennsylvania, and they had four children. Benjamin died in December 1848 in Monongalia County, Virginia (now West Virginia).
