    Immogene was of English and Dutch descent. Her maternal and paternal lines were all early immigrants to America, most arriving between 1605 to 1680.

    Immogene’s father, Horatio Nelson Millard gave up farming to become a Baptist Minister when the family left New York for Iowa. Because of this, Immogene was raised Baptist.

    We know little about Immogene’s life, though her son, George Benning, claimed that his mother died too young because she had so many children. However, George was the ‘baby’ and without his birth we wouldn’t be here! George was very close to his mother, but claimed his dad William Benning was ‘cold and aloof’.

The death cert also states that Immogene lived in Colorado for 14 years preceding her death, which means they left Boone, Iowa about 1901/02.
