It looks as if William Bennett is alone on this Census. Below is what I recieved from another source and the book from which the information is supposed to have been copied. Can you tell me anything further on this matter? I would appreciate anyone from the Bennett family of Duplin County contacting you to add to this report Kathy >From #28 WM.

"About 1784, Bennett married a daughter of another Revolutionary Soldier of Duplin County, in the Continental Line, Mary Sheffield and they made their home in Duplin County. The couple was listed in the 1790 Duplin Census." Their children were Lucy b 1786 who married David Geiger A daughter b abt 1790 who married John Padgett John b 1795 who married Frances Harris Richard b 1799 who married Rebecca Boatright Henry b 1810 who married Nancy Corbett Isham b 1812 who married Molly Moody William the soldier and two of his brothers, Richard and James, moved to Georgia. William and his family made their home in Bullock County until 1825 and the moved to the new Georgia County of Appling. He died in 1828. Widow Mary continued to live in the 583rd District of Appling County until her death in the 1840's. As a widow of of a Revolutionary Soldier she drew land in the Cherokee land lottery.
