Notes |
- Bennett is not located in the home of his parents in 1850 Holmes Co., FL, so
he may be living with another family member in Dale county.

Reviewed the entire 1880 Dale Co census and did not locate Bennett or h
family in that county.
Bennett either moved his family to the Battens Cross Roads Community of
Coffee Co., AL sometime before 1880, or boundary changes for Coffee and Dale
changed their geographics. Martha continued working the family farm after
his death and purchased 120 acres in 1899 under the Homestead Act.
Bennett's farm had a cotton gin which was pulled by mule, and it would gin
about three to four bales of cotton a day.
