Friends, do you have or know of any source to confirm the identity of the parents of John W. Bennett who died Mar 26 1861, very likely in Monmouth County NJ, presumed b. Dec 1774, married Elizabeth Van Mater b 5/10/1778 daughter of Cyrenus Van Mater and Jacoba/Cabauche Conover/Couvenhoven? Thank you; you folks are my best hope on this.
