Looking for information on the family of Jacob Bennett born ca 1760 and died December 1, 1840 presumably in Wilson Co, TN. This Jacob is the father of Alfred Mc. Bennett, b. 1810, who lived in Marshall Co, TN in 1850 and who migrated to Dallas Co., MO by 1860. This information about Jacob Bennett being the father of Alfred was sent to me recently after many years searching for Alfred's parents. The name of his mother is only listed as either "Marak" or more likely I suspect, Mariah. A check of the 1820 census index shows two Jacob Bennetts in Wilson Co, TN. Only the one listed as Jacob Jr possibly fits the one I'm looking for as he's the only one listed with a male over age 45. Alfred, his son, states on the 1850, 1860 and 1870 census that he was born in NC so the Jacob I'm looking for must have at least lived in NC for a time. Alfred's middle name starts with Mc but I have yet to find out what it might stand for nor have I seen any Bennetts who married females with the last name starting with Mc in the right time period. Does anyone have any information on the family of this Jacob Bennett? I'm looking for siblings names and parents names. Cheryl Critchfield jacknme@ftcnet.net
