Benjamin is related to the other Coxseys in Carrollton AR,
but I am not sure exactly what his relationship was. My
grandmother Gertrude Maples Powell in a letter date 1967
states that brothers Ben, Andrew (Andy) and Taylor (Pat)
Coxsey came to Carroll Co. AR in 1969 and that Ben was the
oldest. I suspect that Benjamin Coxsey was a Uncle to
Andrew and Taylor. I do not think they were brothers.
