Very interesting!

When I was in Brown University in 1973, I made friends with
Tom Benfey.  He said he was a great grand son of Theodor Benfey.
Tom was very kind and helped me before I crossed the country from
Providence to San Fransisco by a poor old car.
Remembering the good old days in the USA,

Subject: [INDOLOGY] Benfey's biography

Dear colleagues,

I am happy to report that there indeed exists a privately printed biography of 
Benfey by his daughter, of considerably greater magnitude and import than the 
introduction in his Kleine Schriften in that it features extensive 
correspondence. Our colleague Anett Krause has discovered a copy of it in the 
library of the University of Leipzig. It is now digitized and available.

Benfey, Meta: Theodor Benfey. Zum Andenken für seine Kinder und Enkel. [Bad 
Nauheim: Verlag nicht ermittelbar, 1909?], 444 Seiten. Anmerkungen: Diese 
Biographie besteht zum grössten Teil aus Briefen von Theodor Benfey, Ort und 
Datierung unter dem Vorwort: Bad Nauheim, 3. Juli 1909. Provenienz: Hertel, 
Johannes / Stempel.

Happy reading!
