The Bentley family of Upstate New York, in the general area of Saratoga County, was thought to have started with four Bentley brothers from England. Three went west followed by the fourth, who then returned to New York. By study of family documents and photos, and an examination of public records, mostly the US Census, a clearer picture of the family history emerges. What is certain is that one Bentley, John Henry, was in the Civil War, and he did in fact settle in Michigan for a few years before returning to Greenfield, NY. However, it does not appear that his origins are in England.

Taybor Bentley is supposed to be connected to the family, but is currently unknown how.

Based on the notes, the Bentley family looks like this:

1. John Bentley m1: ? Scott died when John was in War of 1812; m2: ?.
1. John Henry Bentley, b. 8/30/1843, a cooper.
2. Henry Bentley, b. 1822, a cooper [Census: ____, ____, 1870, 1880]; m. Eliza ?.
3. Tabor Bentley, b. abt. 1832, d. 1881 aged 49 [Census: 1850, 1860/1860, ____, 1880]; m. Ann Stoddard (1831-1908).
1. William H. Bentley, b. abt. 1859, d. 1888 aged 29.

Note: this would invalidate the William & Louisa Bentley family, as they would be too young for Henry & Tabor.
