RESEARCH NOTES:
There seems to be a number of different possibilities for Benjamin Boorman born about 1829 in Kent, with various parents, in both England and the US.

- from familysearch.org, a family tree (AF submission, "PickettGavin", database, pal:/MM9.2.1/39PW-53Y):
Benjamin Boorman, bap 15 Sep 1829 Frittenden Kent, buried 17 Jul 1854 Frittenden Kent, married Jun 1849 Cranbrook RD to Susanna Wise, born 1826 Frittenden Kent ) she remarried June 1862 Cranbrook to John Beeslee Taylor). Benjamin and Susannah had 3 children:
> Fanny Susanna Boorman (b 1849 Frittenden, bapt 6 Jan 1850 Frittenden, school teacher, married William Alexander Brakefield in1878 Headcorn Cranbrook RD Kent)
> Robert Benjamin Boorman (bapt 29 Jun 1851 Frittenden, burial Dec 1916 Church Yard Headcorn, death Hollingbourne RD, married Dorcas Bartholomew (1856-1909) in 1874 Ticehurst Sussex/Kent. They had 10 children: Thomas (13 Sep 1875-Jan 1966), Ruth (1877- Jun 1908), John (1880 - Sep 1899), Alice (1886 - ), Emily (1888- ), Richard William (1891- ), Reginald (1894- ), Charles (1898- ), Esther (1901- ). Further lineage given for son Thomas.
> Walter John Boorman
Reportedly Benjamin’s father was Thomas Booman (b 1776 Kent - old enough to be his grandfather). Benjamin’s siblings listed as Richard Boorman (1821) and Mary Boorman (1826).

- This USA marriage is very promising because also in 1852 in Wisconsin, a William Boorman of Headcorn married another daughter of Capping and Hannah Boorman (bride and groom were likely first cousins); perhaps William and Benjamin were brothers who moved together to the USA?:
