Dr. James Bennett's history. James first lived in Hampton,Virginia and
according to Frances Bennett he was a Baptist minister there. He lost two
wives in influenza epidemics. He then devoted a good deal of his time in
trying to find a cure for influenza and eventually became a medical doctor.
He then moved to Youngwood, Pennsylvania and became a country doctor with
horse and buggy. He married Catherine Dustine(sic) in Pennsylvania and had nine
children by her--one of whom was Abraham Lincoln Bennett. Mae's father.
We saw Dr. James Bennett's grave in a Youngwood cemetery when we visited there
in 1972. Letter from John a. Church
Need to know who else was buried in the cemetery with James Bennett?
Informants on the Bennett Family was Frances and her son Judson Ray Bennett
of Youngwood, Pa. and Winifred Bennett of Idaho furnished a lot of the
information on the Bennett family charts.

I haven't been able to locate a marriage for Mabel and Link Bennett in Box
Elder Co.,Utah. I made a special trip to Brigham and searched the marriage
certificates to see if they were left off the index and there was no marriage
there.
Margaret Wood has a copy of the wedding announcement for Lincoln and Mabel Carter.
Birth of A. Lincoln Bennett
There is a Youngwood in Westmoreland Co.which is right above Fayette Co.,Pa.
Link's death cert said he was born in Fayette Co. It is possible that Fayette
is right and it was later divided into two counties, Fayette and Westmoreland.
I used Fayette which is the place the family used probably because that is
where they were told Link was born.
