Thank you so much. Reed Bennett married Sarah Stowe in 1838 in Polk County. They had several children and I found her in the 1850 census living with her children in Laclede County with her brother. In 1848 the Springfield paper published the info that Reed Bennett and his brother, Oliver HP were the trustees of their father's(Thomas Bennett) estate. I would like to know what happened to Reed and if his father lived in Polk county. The mother of Reed and Oliver is Nancy North. Her and Thomas were married in 1817 at the Livesay Plantation in Oneida, NY. If there is any info about this family, I would appreciate it if you would share. These Bennett's are directly related to the people that settled Brice, Mo. and later named Bennett Springs. Thanks for reading and have a nice holiday season, Betty Keith ----- Original Message ----- From: <thomashvandiver@bellsouth.net> To: <mopolk@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2007 11:20 AM Subject: Re: [MOPOLK] Polk County History > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Carolyn Caplinger" <cmcaplinger@yahoo.com> > To: <mopolk@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2007 4:58 PM > Subject: Re: [MOPOLK] Polk County History > > >>I have the book.
