Thanks for the info John. I just came across an index for the 1850 Clermont County census in the Clermont County rootsweb site. There are 2 double entries for Stephen Bennett. One is on Page 15 in Monroe Twp and the other is page 45 in Washington Twp. Does anyone have access to this census for a look-up on the information contained in this census for these Stephen Bennetts?
