This is an 8 Millimeter Film of the Benn family shot by my Uncle, J. Wesley Starnes, at Georgetown, South Carolina, in June of 1958.  I was 11, my brother 19.  Also in this video are my mother and father, my cousin, Ruth Bell, my aunts Martha , Ann, Ruth and Janie Lois and uncles Robert, Wesley and Bert.  This is a pretty big file, so give it time to load.
