Yes, that's pretty much it. Ben's Dad is not Horace, Ben's Dad was Roger Linus, the guy who looked like "Douglas C. Niedermayer" from ANIMAL HOUSE (also the guy who played the mean dad in Twister's Sister's "We're not gonna take it" video).
Oh, and here is the synopsis of how the Linus' met Horace:
"Off the Island"
On December 19th, during an unknown year in the 1960s, Roger and his wife, Emily, went on a hike in a forest near Portland. At the time, Emily was seven-months pregnant with, presumably, their first and only child. For an unknown reason, she went into labor early into the hike. Roger delivered the baby, picked-up Emily and the baby, and ran for help. They reached the side of a busy road and Roger managed to stop a couple (Horace Goodspeed and his wife) for help. Sadly, it was too late for Emily and she died in his arms. With her dying words, she asked Roger to name the baby "Benjamin". ("The Man Behind the Curtain")
