I'm not sure if there is a connection, but here goes: My name is Daniel Steven Benefield(Dan), my father is Clarence Eugene Benefield, his father was David Franklin Benefield, his father was Needham Andrew Jackson Benefield, his father was William Henry Benefield, his father was James Kramer Benefield (1803-1897), and his father was Needham Bedingfield. (note the name change) Needham Bedingfield was not the immigrant from England, as I believe that was several more generations back.

I have a picture of James Kramer Benefield, but not of William Henry.
