Benjamin and his older brother, Mathew Pritchard (Prechet) and wife, and family, presented certificates from Philadelphia (signed 18d 9m 1700) to the Pasquotank Monthly Meeting, in North Carolina.

Benjamin Pritchard (Prechet)	More information about Sarah and her parents are available on their ancestry page including that she was not Sarah Bird.			Sarah Elizabeth Culpepper (Culpeper)
print Benjamin Prichard was a son of Thomas and Barbara Prichard, born in about 1684 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or perhaps in about 1680 in Wales. He was living in Philadelphia when the 1698 and 1699 wills of his parents were written, which both mention him among their six surviving children. On "23rd of 12th Month 1699", 5 Mar 1700 on the Gregorian Calendar, Matthew Prichard appeared at the Philadelphia Monthly Meeting, "... laying before this meeting that he intends to transport himself, his brother Benjamin & family into Carolina, and desiring a Certificate, ...". Minutes of the Pasquotank Monthly Meeting in North Carolina note that Matthew Prichard arrived with his family and brother Benjamin from Philadelphia on "1701-4-1", 12 Jun 1701 Gregorian. Numerous records from the Symons Creek Monthly Meeting of Pasquotank County show Benjamin's residence there through November 1738. Benjamin married first Sarah Culpepper (1686-1724) in Pasquotank County, North Carolina, on "1704, 9, 2", 13 Nov 1704 Gregorian. Benjamin and Sarah had the following children: Mary Prichard (1707–1791) Elizabeth Prichard (1710–1791) Martha Prichard (1713–1788) Joseph Prichard (1715–1761) Benjamin Prichard (1719–1752) Sarah Prichard (1723–1794) Sarah died on "10-25-1723", 5 Jan 1724 Gregorian, and Benjamin married second Isabel Newby (1698-1758), widow of John Henly (1690-1728), in Pasquotank County on "1729, 6, 7", 18 Aug 1729 Gregorian. Benjamin and Isabel had the following child: Matthew Prichard (1732-1778). It is presumed that Benjamin was buried in the Friends Symons Creek Monthly Meeting House Burial Ground, as he was a member of the Symons Creek Monthly Meeting. -- Vincent Prichard, 5th great-grandson of Benjamin and Isabel Prichard, April 2015 Source: Find A Grave Memorial: Benjamin Prichard (1684-1739)			b. 25 November 1684 Philadelphia, PA d. 21 September 1739 in NC Benjamin Pritchard's family is listed on p. 114 of Encyclopedia of American Quaker genealogy, Volume I, by William Hinshaw (Caution!). Quaker records mentioning Benjamin and Sarah Pritchard (source: Ancestry).	"1704, 9, 2. Benjamin Pritchard ltm [liberated to marry] Sarah Culpeper" (Hinshaw, Vol. I, p. 162) (Caution!). This liberation to marry is also mentioned in the Pasquotank Monthly Meeting (source: Ancestry). Banns of Marriage: First declaration of marriage intention on "5th of the 8th Month 1704" - 16 October 1704 Second declartion of marriage intention on "2nd of the 9th Month 1704" m. 13 November 1704 some sources say Philadelphia, PA, though NC would make more sense. After Sarah died, Benjamin married Isabel Newby.			b. 2 February 1686 or ca. 1689 Albemarle Co., NC d. 25 December 1723 Pasquotank Co., NC
