From Ronny Bodine:

The marriage of Benajah Antrim and Eliza Bodine, all of New Mills, was reported in the "New Jersey Mirror" of 9 March 1825. Benejah Antrim served as a Freeholder of New Hanover Township in 1833 and as a trustee of the Methodist Episcopal Church upon its construction in 1854. Throughout his life he was engaged as a merchant. He was an Assemblyman in the New Jersey legislature in 1852 and was one of the directors of the Farmer's Bank of Mount Holly for many years and until his death. See a biographical sketch of Benajah Antrim in "Genealogical and memorial history of the state of New Jersey," (New York: Lewis Historical Publishing Co., 1910), p. 943. See the obituaries of Eliza Antrim in the "New Jersey Mirror" of 27 Aug 1890 and Benajah Antrim in the issue of 6 Feb 1895.
