Living with him was a male, Blanchard, age 24, a female Edith B. five months old and a female, Mary E. age 16. Also residing with him is Catherine E. Bevier, age 82. No doubt that this is Catherine E. Bevier, Catherine S. Bevier's mother, Catharine E. TenEyck Bevier. Catherine S. Bevier is not listed, thus she is presumed dead or institutionalized and her mother came to New Jersey to help raise her grandchild, Edith B. Edgar. Perhaps Catherine S. Bevier died in childbirth or shortly thereafter. There is also a nurse living with the family which might indicate that the 82 year old grandmother was ailing. She died less than a year later.

Because of his association with his father he was always referred to as "Young Dr. Ben" even after he had reached the age of 70 years, and his father had been long dead.
He married Ellen M. Bange, daughter of a New York merchant who had made large investments at Napanoch in tanning and leather manufacturing. They had six children, two of whom died in infancy. The relationship of Dr. Bevier to his sons and daughters, to his grandchildren, and to a wide circle of friends and relatives was always characterized by unusual affection.
