His WWII Draft Registration Card indicates on the back side that he had a fractured vertebrae, was 5'7" tall, 168 lbs., with a ruddy complexion, brown eyes and gray hair.  Below is the front side of the card. from which we affirm that he was born March 9, 1882 in Brandywine MD and now lives in Anacostia, DC at the age of 60.  He works at Walls Store in Suitland (likely he or another family member owns this store). . 

From the 1930 Census in Suitland, MD, we learn that Benjamin and Jennie live next door to her parents Joseph S. and Mary C. Minto.  They all live on Suitland Road.  There are still 9 children living at home with Ben and Jennie, ranging in ages from 1.5 years to 25.  Ben is a laborer for "Express".  Louis works in an auto body repair shop.  Ben R. is a florist.  Ethel works in a cafe and Robert in a bakery.  None of the others work outside of the home.    Joseph Minto next door continues to work as a farmer. It should be noted that Joseph may have been a widower as he married a Mary C. at age 61, when Mary was 41.
