John Bell BENNETT
« on: Thursday 03 September 09 05:38 BST (UK) »
Hi,

If anyone knows or have John Bell Bennett (died 01/03/1926 Naracoorte SA) and Maria Brown died (13/04/1912) in their trees could they please post a reply as I am after both of their parents and date of births.

However any information you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thankyou in advance.

Al

Hi Al,

Do you have a general idea of the birth years, and perhaps birth places for either?

Cheers,

JM

Hi Al,

The reason I ask is that online index shows in New Zealand 3 May 1883, there's a birth registered for a girl, Janet Bell BENNETT, her parents given names listed as Janet Bell and Alexander.

Of course, that doesn't indicate if that birth is for a family member for your John Bell Bennett, but .....

Here's the link to the NZ BDM online site

Cheers,

BENNETT, Maria
Cemetery Naracoorte

Last Residence Naracoorte
Date of Burial    16 Apr 1912

So you are looking in Yorkshire c1838 for the birth of Maria/Marie/Mary BROWN/E [marriage reg showed her surname BROWNE] and ? c1832 for John Bell BENNETT.
Have your searched on IGI on family search?

Hi angel2947 :)

Welcome to rootschat  :)

Algrass asked for information but didn't respond to the little that was posted and he/she has been logged in since that date.    I decided not to search further when there was no response.

Cheers  :)
