The scope of Marion T. Bennett's book is not wide - he mainly focuses on our particular line, but in the chapter on early Virginia settlers, you may find some interesting information. I believe, however, that most of it is fairly common knowledge amongst researchers. There is nothing in the book about the Maine settlers. Some individual members may have ended up in Maine, however. There may have been migrations from Virginia or Kentucky to Maine, but they would not have been covered as he does not go into a lot of detail about Virginia settlers. Mainly, the book focuses on Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri connections of our particular line. It is a little over one hundred pages, but I would be glad to send it to anyone on this list who requests it as a Word Document. It was written mainly for our relatives. He did use some professional genealogists and spent a lot of time with primary documents to which he had access in the libraries of Washington, D.C. and the above referenced states. VIctoria Bennett

Victoria, My Bennett's migrated from Pittsylania Va to KY. I would be thrilled if you would send me the information you have as they have been an elusive bunch for me to track down. I'm hoping to find evidence that would prove a family in Caldwell Co. KY are my line.
