Generation no 2. MY BENNETTS Robert Bennett (John 1) was born 1533 in Wiveliscombe, Somerset , England and died Sept 1603 in England. He amrried Elizabeth Edney, daughter of John Edney. He was my grandfather, Robert was a tanner, listed as being wealthy. The birth dates listed for his children could be nonw or more yeras before their christening dates. Robert and Elizabeth are buried at the parish church in WEiveliscombe, Somerset, England. A lot of English history occurred in his life time but too lenghtly to print here, so here are the names of their children.

He was merchant, owning a fleet of ships. I will type in the 3rd Gen tomorrow as it will get better and eventually down to my mom's mother who was a Bennett. We tie in at the 6th Generation with our GREAT Robertsons of whom I am richly kin on both side of my tree. This is not a fun thing, it is Bennett genealogy and I have been asked to put them here for Bennetts out there to perhaps latch onto and this will be the purpose of my posting. tj3227@vicksburg.com
