• Notes

  Ben E. Riddle birth 9/14/1862 shown on Riddle Bible Record. Hutchins, Ref. 11 page 11, shows grave marker as: BEN E RIDDLE, September 14, 1862 - August 10, 1901 His Wife, JULIA A. RIDDLE, July 2, 1865 - October 18, 1945. Some of Ben E's descendants claim that his middle name was Ervin while others claim it was Erwin. A copy of a page from a Bible that is believed to have belonged to Ben E. and was passed down to the Stanley M. Riddle family shows his middle name as Ervin. [1]
