Hi I am new to tracing my family tree and I am stuck on my 3rd great grandfather Benjamin Meeson. I believe he was born in 1786 and died on the 3rd of April 1839. He married Amy (Amey) Perry and they had 2 children James 1817 - 1860 and Rebecca 1832 -1839. If anyone can offer any tips on tracing him I would really appreciate your help. Thank you.
Diane.
