Bennetts of Bridgnorth

[Vabre]

William Bennett my 3rd. gt. grandfather born on 22nd. June 1803 christened St Mary Magdalene Church,  24th. July 1803, parents George and Ann Bennett. The names of his siblings are John 1805, Anne 1808, Janetta 1810 buried 1811, Eleanora 1814, Susannah 1818, I am having a problem with finding these people and where they went to.Several Bennetts finished up in Staffordshire, so over a long search I am still no better off.
Mr Gwynne Chadwick did send me this information in 2011, I have tried with several subscriptions to no avail.

Many thanks,

Pam...Sydney

Thank you Trish for your reply,I was looking at this family today, I forgot to mention my Bennetts were from Bridgnorth, Shropshire, I know Staffordshire is close by, Bennett is a rather common name, I have found two George Bennetts married to an Ann from these areas,just can't seem to tie them in to mine.

I notice you are also from Sydney.
Thanks again,
Pam

Your welcome.

Something to ponder, if George/Ann left Shropshire when the Children were young they may have not known where they were born if they grew up in Staffs.

Thank you Trish, I didn't consider this.
