So I will try again. Yes I think he is the same person. My father very seldom talked about the past and we never met any of his family. I remember him talking to mom about Nancy and about a Will O Bentley. He had a brother that lived in Sweet home Oregan. Not sure if that was his brother Ben or Ira Bentley. I also remember getting a letter from there that said the brother had passed away. My father talked about being married several times. My mom and dad were married 25 years. He died in 1965. I will send a picture by regular email. Was will O the only child? I think I have a half sister named Rebecca Bentley. I saw a picture of her when I was a kid (don't know what happened to it or her). If this is the same James Bentley. Then I guess Will O is my half brother. How old is he and is he still living. I live in Northern Kentucky Now. We lived in Perry county on a farm when I was growing up. I would love to know more about my dad's side of the family.
