Benjamin Caudle [113] was born abt. 1725 the son of Stephen Caudle [107] and Mary Elizabeth Fields [109]. Given his birth year of 1725, it’s reasonable to deduce that he was about six years old when his parents received a 195 acre tract near Trisvan Cemetery just a bit north of the Nottoway River in what is now Stony Creek, VA.
