His great great grandson, Benjamin Lemasters (1756-1837), was born in Charles County, Virginia, the son of Isaac and Ann Scott Lemasters. His family lived in in Frederick County, Maryland, through the 1760s and migrated to to Monongalia County, Virginia, in 1770. After serving in the Revolutionary War, 1776-1779, Benjamin married Rebecca Ann Martin in 1779. They were the parents of ten known daughters, born 1780-1804, who lived to maturity.
