Benjamin Howard (1760 – September 18, 1814) was a Congressman from Kentucky, the first governor of the Missouri Territory and a brigadier general in the War of 1812.
Note: Benjamin Howard was most likely born sometime between 1764 (his parent's marriage year) and 1772, possibly in Augusta County, Virginia, or in a surrounding area, and not 1760, as indicated in his wikipedia page.
