Benjamin Simonds
Benjamin Simonds (1726-1807) was a Colonel of the all-Berkshire regiment of about five hundred men known as the “Berkshire Boys” during the American Revolutionary War. His regiment notably fought in the Battle of Bennington in the summer of 1777. He married Mary Davis, and together they had ten children (seven daughters and three sons). Simonds died in 1807 and was buried in what is now known as West Cemetery.
== Early life ==
Benjamin Simonds was born on February 13, 1726 in Ware, Massachusetts. Little is known about his early years. However, at twenty years of age in June 1746, Simonds was likely transferred from the headquarters of Ephraim Williams at Fort Shirley to Fort Massachusetts. The French attacked on August 19 and the men of the fort surrendered. Simonds, among others, was injured in the attack and had to be transported in Indian canoes down the Hoosac River. On the first night, the party camped near the river at the spot where Simonds would eventually buy and build a house. The site is now known as the “River Bend Farm”.
