Arthur Benefiel and Carrie Swarthout married circa 1899 and had one child, Grace Benefiel (Mrs. Theodore H.) Merriam, born circa 1903 in Iowa. Arthur worked as a teacher and Carrie as an osteopath.
Information other than that taken from survey (see "Inscription" and "Plot") came from US Census enumerations for 1900 (with spouse and father in Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa,) 1910 (with spouse and daughter in Spokane, Spokane County, Washington,) 1920 (with spouse in Spokane City,) and 1930 (Arthur's widow living with daughter's family in Seattle, King County, Washington;) and Washington, Deaths, 1883-1960.
Another contributor has suggested that Mr. Benefiel was born in Scott County, Iowa. No sources were provided, and I could confirm only that he was born in Iowa.
