I must have missed a post somewhere. What is the "History of the Bennett" book mentioned by Victoria. I know of "The Bennetts of Southern Pittsylvania County, Virginia" that covers descendents of Bennetts who still live on an original Land Grant from the King of England in what is now Pittsylvania County, Virginia. The Pittsylvania book does not go back to when the Bennetts first came over from Europe. It picks up the line during the mid-1600's in Virginia.

Hello, Does this "History of the Bennett's" have the Bennett line that came over on the Winthrop Fleet to MA from England? Thanks...
