    Transcriber's Notes:

    The date Oct. 3, 1860 on the page labeled 'Births' appears to be the date that the information was recorded in the Bible. The bible is dated 1858, which is after the last recorded birth. The handwriting was the same throughout indicating that all information was recorded at one time. It is likely that Jesse and Nancy purchased the Bible about October 3, 1860 and recorded family births at that time.

    This bible record was transcribed by David E. Bennett on June 9, 2000. The bible was in the possession of Sam G. Bennett, grandson of Jesse L. Bennett. Sam Bennett related that he found the Bible in a trunk in his home, which was purchased by Jesse Lewis Bennett in 1847.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Census: 1782, , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA
    • Will: 11 Nov 1782, , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA

    Notes:

    Fauquier County Court, 26th of May 1763

    "We present David Thomas, Thomas Dodson, Abraham Dodson, Elisha Dodson, Joseph Dodson, Edmund Hayes, Peter Cornwell, Obed Cornwell, Alexander Higgins, & (William Davis on the Biskett Mountain), John Davis, William Carter, Timothy Stamps, John Stamps, William Stamps, Mary Stamps, John Bennett, Fortunatus Dodson, Joshua Owen, Joshua Dodson, John Creel, Rawleigh Dodson, Samuel Bailey, William Shirley, William Young, Joseph Owens, Joshua Scurlock, Edward Hughes, John Cundiff, Anthony Seale, James Shackleford, Henry Hampton, John Shirley, Joseph Morrison, Benjamin Edwards, Anthony Morgan & George Bell of Hamilton Parish for absenting themselves from their Parish Church within this six months last past."

    Census:
    Alexander Lee, Thomas Bennett and John Bennett, Sr appear in order on the 1782 census list taken by John Dix in the District of Capt. John Wynn and Capt. John Walters. Alexander Lee is listed with 4 white persons in his household, Thomas Bennett with 4 white persons and John Bennett with 6 white persons. None of the three have any slaves listed.

    Will:
    This will was proved on 18 July 1791. The record indicates it was further proved on 20 Feb 1797 and ordered to be recorded. This last date may not be accurate. The will was recorded in Deeds & Wills Book 9 covering the years 1791-1794. If it was recorded in 1797, as the document says, it would have been in Book 10 which covers the years 1794-1797. I believe it likely that the date the will was recorded was 1792. An examination of the wills recorded immediately before and after this one would reveal whether or not this suspicion is true. Furthermore, an inventory of the estate was submitted to the courts on 5 Mar 1792 further reinforcing the idea that the proving of the will was in February 1792.

    John Bennett, Last Will and Testament
    Pittsylvania Co., Va
    Deeds and Wills 9, Page 28

    In the name of God Amen I John Bennett of the County of Pittsylvania and the State of Virginia planter being very sick and weak in body, but of perfect mind and memory thanks be given unto God. Calling to mind the mortallity of my body, and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die do make & ordain this my last Will and Testament, that is to say

    Died:
    In a 1794 deed from Robert Maddin to Samuel Walker, John Bennett, deceased, is identified as an adjoining property owner. (DB 8, p. 489) It is likely that John died in 1785 or 1786. John was present in the 1785 tax list of Pittsylvania County. He was absent from the 1786 land tax list and every year thereafter. In 1787 Elizabeth, John's wife, was listed as head of household on the tax list. Since only single women and widows were included on the list, it appears that John had died before 1787. His absence from the land tax list of 1786 suggests that he died sometime after the 1785 tax list was recorded.
