Do any of you have the following names?
Thomas Bennet age 80 burial December 31-1817
there may have been his widow Sarah .

Henry Bennet age 48 burial December 31-1817

Entered in East Stoke Parish Register.
I think they may be father and son and an accident while building something in Dorset.

Henry had left a wife Mary and 8 children, all of whom came to the USA about 1830.
her maiden name was Vocum.

I would like the brothers and sisters and parents of the above people. The widow and some of Henry's children had lived in Highwood on land they later sold to pay for passage to come to USA.

A church took up a collection to help pay one of the childrens families passage.

Can anyone give me help to find information?
I can fill in family after they landed here in USA.

Thank you Dorothy Bennett Syring
in Minnesota, USA
