Find-A-Grave entry at this location the following location is said to come from a book called "Maury County Cemeteries" and it states that this man is the father of Daniel Boone Cutbirth (1762-1838) and three more children. That he was born about 1740 in PA. I believe that with this evidence, Cutbirth-3 and Cutbirth-26 are the same person.

Benjamin was a Long Hunter "extended expeditions into the wilderness lasting weeks or months" and close friend of Daniel Boone. He married Boone's neice, Elizabeth Willcockson around 1760 in Rowan County, North Carolina and they reared two sons and two daughters in North Carolina and Tennessee.

Cutbirth-11 and Cutbirth-12 appear to represent the same person because: These appear to represent the same person. I recommend merging.
