It appears Benjamin Franklin Currier believed (or wanted others to believe) he was born in New Jersey, but the Currier genealogy states New York and census records from when he was a child corroborate this. Furthermore, judging from the birthplaces of his siblings given in the Currier genealogy, there seems little likelihood that the family ever lived in New Jersey.Nassau, E.D. 175, family #365Nassau, E.D. 45, family #493Nassau, E.D. 17, family #30Nassau, E.D. 175, family #365Nassau, E.D. 17, family #30Nassau, E.D. 45, family #493Entry for Bertha Hansen, Greenport, E.D. 22, family #118

Augusta was his first wife.
Either Nina or Alice married Wilford Crable and the other married Raymond Miller. Since they are listed as Mrs. (Husband's first name) (Husband's surname) rather than Mrs. (Own first name) (Husband's surname) I infer these two husbands were alive at Augusta's death. Mrs. Crable lived in Trenton, New Jersey and Mrs. Miller apparently lived in Nassau.
