HEY THERE,
SAW YOUR POST, POSSIBLY WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE SAME BENNETTS. I MET A MAN NAMED "RICHARD BENNETT" WHO CAME TO MY HOME IN BASTROP TEXAS A FEW YEARS AGO POSING AS AN INSURANCE SALESMAN. HE SAID HE LIVED IN AMARILLO. THE FUNNY THING THOUGH IS THAT HE BEGAN ASKING ALOT OF QUESTIONS AND DIDNT TRY AND SELL ME ANY INSURANCE. HE WAS IMPRESSED AT MY BEING A FAIRLY WELL KNOWN ARTIST AND ASKED FOR MY AUTOGRAPH ON A PRINT I GAVE TO HIM AND THEN HE LEFT BUT HE CAME BACK AND ASKED TO TAKE A PICTURE OF ME WHICH I LET HIM DO FOR SOME REASON. I THOUGHT ABOUT IT AWHILE AND THEN LOOKED HIM UP IN THE PHONE BOOK AND INDEED HE DOES HAVE A PHONE NUMBER IN AMARILLO BUT HE ALSO HAS ONE IN AUSTIN. HIS JOB WAS REPOSSESING CARS AND BEING A DETECTIVE. HE IS A SHORT STOCKY GUY. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING INTO MY BIRTH MOM "MELBA JOYCE" OR MELBA JOY BENNETT. AT THE TIME I WAS BORN, HER NAME WAS "SIMMONS" AND BEFORE THAT, I THINK HER MAIDEN NAME WAS BISHOP OR SOME SUCH THING. LEMME KNOW IF ANY OF THIS HTIS YOU!
AS ESPECIALLY CLICKY.
