Bill, We are at a total dead end on my husbands 3G GF, William B. ?Bennett/Buck? ALEXANDER. He was born in VA abt 1791, place unknown abt. I have discovered that many VA Alexanders originated in Somerset Co, MD, and then moved to Augusta Co, VA Three of William B.'s sons had BENNETT as a middle name, and two had HARVEY as a middle name. HARVEY was his wife's maiden name, she was Penelope HARVEY, so I'm guessing!!!! that BENNETT was his mother's maiden name, and since we're dead in the water on the ALEXANDERs, thought I would start pursueing the BENNETTs in VA. And then your email showed up, with BENNETTs in Augusta Co. Do you have any ALEXANDERs that married into your BENNETTs? Sorry that I can't help you right now, but as we are researching another Bennett family that was in Kent Co, DE, that was in Somerset Co, MD earlier in the 1700s, with the Alexander's that went to Augusta Co, VA, perhaps we can help you in the future. I will log your name and keep my eyes open for Joseph BENNETTs. I have a BENNETT book that is on the way, and will look for them when it comes, also. Thank you, Beverly and Larry Alexander ALEXLARRY@prodigy.net
