Surnames: Bennett, Rizer Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/BRD.2ACEB/4689 Message Board Post: The Christ Church marriage records of Allegany co, Maryland show that Sylvanus Bennett married Rebecca Rizer, 13 Jul 1824. I believe I have found Sylvanus in the 1840 and 1850 census. 1840 shows a son under age 5, so born prior to 1835. Who was this son? A daughter Rosanne was born 22 Dec 1830, but seems to have died before 1840. The 1850 census has a wife named Sarah, so I am assuming that Rebecca Rizer Bennett had died. But where is Rebecca Rizer Bennett buried? When did she die? Looking for also death data and details on Sylvanus Bennett. You may email me directly at RizerK@erinet.com
