Brenda and Michael, you might want to research the Bennetts and Nelsons a little closer. They seem to travel together. Nelson is a name related to David Bowles. David is probably Gideon Bowles brother. Gideon had two children that died in Wilkes Co GA.David and Gideon were from Henrico Co and seem to be sons of Benjamin Bowles in Henrico Co 1729. John, Thomas, and Benjamin Bowles of Henrico Co seem to be brothers of David and Gideon. Brother John or Benjamin could be the source for John Booles born about 1750. Hoping for a DNA test from David and Gideon families soon. Leathel, Descendants of William Bennett Generation No. 1 1.
