Two Family Travail (Posted on 2022-05-01) Difficulty: 3 of 5
There are precisely three brothers in the Pearson family and exactly three brothers in the Turner family.
Three of these six men are Knights, who always tell the truth; and three are liars, who always speak falsely. Neither set of 3 brothers from the two families consist exclusively of liars.

They made the following statements:
  • Abner: "Both of my brothers are liars."
  • Benny: "Both of my brothers are knights."
  • Connor: "Abner and Benny are both liars."
  • Damian: "Connor and I are brothers."
  • Eldon: "Benny and I are brothers."
  • Freddy: "Eldon tells the truth."
  • Freddy: "Benny belongs to the Pearson family."
Determine the full names of the six men, and ascertain their types.
