Hi Terry, I am not certain about any relatives that early. I wish I could get history beyond Sarah Bennett's father, Isaac
Bennett. He had a farm somewhere near Thebes,
Illinois. Two of his sons were Henry and Benjamin; there may have been others. We believe he had a daughter named Melvina as well as Sarah. Some years later, after their
mother ( Elizabeth?) died, Isaac married a
widow with a daughter. (These Bennetts were
medium to short in height, Irish or Scots-Irish, and may have come from Kentucky.
This is all I have on the Bennetts. Does any
of this fit in with your history? Thanks, CJ
