Gibbard.

There is a Marriage for a John Bennett/23yrs/Batchelor/a Baker/living Luton/son of John Bennett a Baker to MaryDavis/24yrs/Spinster/livindgLuton/daughterofwilliam Davis.Farmer/ on 26thApril 1859 at Parish Church Luton

5 Apr 1804 at Greatworth, Northamptonshire - Edward GIBBARD and Hannah FOLLS

At least we now know thanks to Orpheus where the Foll in Hannah Foll BENNETT, born 1834 came from Smiley

I am just posting this as I have been unable to find a death for Hannah between 1834-1841. She does not appear on 1841 census with her parents.
Someone else might have more luck.

Did John and Eliza have a child WILLIAM abt 1806?

1841 Census
Luton, Bedfordshire
HO107/4/24/Luton

William BENNETT, 35
William, 10
Martha, 35
John, 10
Hannah, 8
Fanny, 6
ELIZA, 61
Emma, 2
Samuel, 2mths

Image is impossible to read so have just typed what is transcribed Roll Eyes

Could this be Eliza, born c 1780, Mother of John?

Closest match to Thomas.A. Bennett I can find dying in New Zealand is;

Thomas Albert Bennett
Age 61
1902/6271

NZ death certs contain a lot of info at this time so would be worth purchasing. It should have wife if he married and ages of children still living etc. This obviously depends on who registered the death.

Maybe a separate look-up on NZ Board would help as they are extremely heplfull and have access to Burial/Voter reg records/BMD info etc. I havent.

Cheers,
Trish

This is all fabulous and I am beginning to join dots big time.  The John death makes sense as the 1849 death record is at odds with anecdotes of him dying before Sarah. Thank you Australind.  I have also obtained a copy of Thomas' death cert and discovered that he married Annie Cheshire in London at the age of 21 before setting sail for NZ so the Ann Bennett on the Queen of the Mersey was probably his wife, not his sister meaning that their sister Ann probably died in England.  Are you able to find out if they came to NZ by assisted passage?

I have also found their burial records at Waikumete in Auckland.  Thomas is described as a 'storekeeper' on his death cert so in keeping with being a grocers assistant in 1861. Thos and Annie had 5 children so yes, I will connect with the NZ branch to see what I can learn about their life in between.

Thank you too for the info re Sarah's parents - this has long been a mystery and FJB obviously was confused on this matter.

Best regards, Juben

You previously wrote that you had a letter that F.J.B.wrote TO his cousin
Benjamin Bennett.Can you pass on date letter was written and any other names
mentioned.Was the letter never sent or did F.J.B. keep a copy?
Please feel free to contact me privately ,if you wish,to exchange information.

Re the William Bennett you mention, I think this may be another line.  John and Eliza did have a child William but he was born in 1812 and Eliza was born in 1774 so would be around 67 at the time of the 1841 census (unless it's a transcription error - 61/67?).  I may be wrong though as I have still a bit of work to do on the various William Bennetts!

Just checked my CDrom set for the 1841 entry as set out by Trish in reply #15. The image is perfectly clear unlike the appalling illegible Ancestry scan.

Sure enough, Juben, you're right that it was a transcription error. Except that Eliza was aged 4, not 61 or 67. It seemed odd that Eliza was out of chronological order in the list of females.

Just a few lines to say hello from a Bennett in Australia. I'm a descendant of Ernest Hauswell, b. 1972, son of Frederick Jabez b. 1844. Ernest came to Australia some time between 1906 and 1911 with his wife and family, but I haven't yet been able to pin that date down. I've been working on this family line with varying amounts of success and frustration for quite a while. Since I've been lurking and reading your posts on the Bennetts of Aspley Guise with great interest, I thought I should say hello.

Cheers,

Interesting - the discovery of that census data has meant that we know why there is a picture of a "Miss Underwood" in Frederick's family album.  This album lives with a cousin of mine and it is my intention to get a copy of that photo later this month.  I am guessing that it may be the daughter Annie listed here as a baby.  Will happily post a copy if I am able to get it.  There is no date on the photo if I recall but I may be wrong.
