Hi, couldn't find your Bennett's in the 1861 census but have found them in the 1851 in Flint, they are Joseph, Head, aged 30, mariner, Ann, wife, aged 27, John aged 5, son, at home, Mary aged 1, daughter, at home and Louisa Jones, just down as relation, aged 14, all born in Flintshire. They are living in what looks like Mumforth Lane but am not completely sure. There is also a Esther Bennett aged 16 living in Flint, her relation to the Head of Household is given as daughter although it is not completely clear who the Head is as there are no other Bennett's in Flint on that census.

I looked on the IGI for Flint though and found an Esther Bennett baptised 1836 (about right for this Esther), parents Nathaniel and Mary Bennett. On the 1861 Flint census I found Nathaniel Bennett born 1814 and Mary Bennett born 1817 both in Flintshire so these could be her parents.

Hope this helps

Hi-I don't think that it is the Flint parish records that you need-more likely to be Connahs Quay. I have 1765 to 1837 baptisms, burials and marriages for Flint and there is only one Bennett in all of them, and then he was only a witness at a wedding in Flint in 1811.
Good Luck in your search

Hi Taffy Lee
just happened on your post while browsing Roots chat
this is probably a long shot !
I have some Bennett in my family tree, I realize how many Bennetts there are in the area and I have little info on dates but was wondering if any of the following have anything to do with your tree
Fred Bennett
Kitty Bennett marrying Frank Idris Johnson at St Mark, Connah's Quay,  Flintshire August 27 1938 she lived at 2 Cestrain St, C/Q at time
Frank lived at 39 Brook Rd Shotton
I believe they live up Wepre Drive
and had a son Raymond Johnson

Andras,
I know from experience that there are/were many Bennett families from Wepre (Connah's Quay as it is now).

My Bennett connection is Benjamin Bennett who owned the New Inn in CQ between approx 1850 and 1875, he was born in 1810.

When searching for Bennett's in CQ, treat them as you would Jones' in other areas - i.e. be very specific on dates, names and occupations.

Hi Shaun,

Sorry, none of them appear on my tree - although, I have only traced the direct line from myself back to Benjamin Bennett - who knows where the other branches lead??

Best wishes,

Lee
