    1. Re: [BENNETT] BENNETT/NORMAN
    2. I don't have any CT Bennetts of which I am aware, but our line of BENNETTS (VA>KY/OH/IND>PA/IL>MO) did marry into the NORMAN family. Glad to send the small Bennett booklet to anyone interested in the few Normans that are in it - might be good to get a sense of where some of them might have gone etc. Victoria P.S. I had to re-do the index and title page because when I put in the page numbers on Marion T. Bennett's booklet, they were no longer accurate. So please excuse the delay in getting them out. Note the maps and some charts and heraldry are not included at this point because I don't know enough about word processing yet. Please let me know if you find typos etc. The format is not so great, but it is readable now. I am trying to figure out how to use templates for my next revision which will be in 12 point and easier to read --- some time off though as I am too busy with my other family histories on the other side of the family. My little Bennett newsletter - completely informal - comes out once a month on average and is a collection of THIS and THAT, there I call it BENNETT THIS AND THAT. In it anyone interested in the Benett or Bennet or Benid or O'Bennett or other variants of the name can post stories, folklore, recipes and that sort of thing. Also includes Bennetts from all religious and ethnic backgrounds as there are many people who do not fit into the dominant and usual British/Norman heritage entirely but carry the name. It may be of interest to those who like offbeat stories, lost ancestors who were off on their own "out West" or on Indian reservations etc., doing research on one-name studies or population genetics, migration studies, ethnic studies, women's studies, history of religions, early colonial history, Civil War studies, abolitionist studies, Appalachian studies, Ozark studies, slavery studies, Native American studies, Melungeon studies, medieval royalty studies, Sephardic studies, Holocaust studies, word etymology, etc. Will look for a moderator to take over once the newsletter gets off the ground as I cannot invest the time to do it properly. It is NOT intended to compete with existing newsletters which focus more on genealogical sources although people may find clues to their ancestors or links to sites where they can find sources. Also it is not intended as a talk forum or social forum, just a place to share things that might "clutter up" some newsletters. Also, free of rules about posting books you may have written yourself or a friend has. Victoria B
