North America, Family Histories, 1500-2000

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier compiled.
Page 19 of the DAR Lineage Book, entry 95050 (Helen B. Beadle Barnett), lists '2. Elias Bentley (1806-60) m. 1827 Sarah Seymour (1808-86)'. This supports the birth year 1806 but not the specific date of 4 June or the birthplace. The only link to Milton is that his father John Bentley died there, so the claim is consistent but thinly supported.
Matches: Elias Bentley is listed as (1806-60), matching the claimed birth year 1806 and death year 1860; He is in the lineage of John Bentley (1755-1833), who died in Milton, N.Y., which fits the claimed place; Elias m. 1827 Sarah Seymour; his son line leads to Mary Frances Bentley (1838-95), consistent with a family in the Milton area
Limits: The record gives only birth and death years for Elias (1806-60), not the day and month (4 June 1806); No birthplace is given for Elias; Milton is only the death place of his father John Bentley; A compiled lineage book (DAR), not an original birth record; Does not mention Saratoga County; Milton, N.Y. is in Saratoga County but the page does not say so
