According to his death notice, Benjamin Morrill was a yeoman, or farmer who owns his own land. He is known as Benjamin 4th in the Salisbury records, not to distinguish him from his father and grandfather, but rather to distinguish him from the many other Benjamin Morrills who lived in that town at the same time.
