The census lists Mary as having had 7 children, with 2 surving. It also shows that Mary immigrated from Ireland in 1853. The 1800 Census stated she was born in NY, and her parents were born in Ireland. Living with them was a Hannah Baxter and her family. Hannah was three years older than Mary, listed as being born in Ireland. Would this possible be a sister to Mary?? After Isaac died, Mary moved to Suffern with Mable, and lived there for 22 years.

Family book from 1990 lists him as being born in Aug. Matche was born Nov 4 1784, possibly his twin. Believe Aug was a typo. Spelling of Bennett was Bennit for some members of the family in the family bible. All Children's birthdates, along with John and Mary's are listed according to the family Bible. Update Jan 2006: Verified it was a typo in the family book. The bible lists John's actual birthday as 4 Nov 1784, same day as Matche. 1850 Jamaica Queens Census: John J Bennett 67 Farmer New York Mary 68 New York Ruth 30 Living next to son Isaac and Daughter Sarah Ann Cenus was dated 11 Sep 1850.

Notes for Isaac Bennett: All Children's birthdays, along with Isaac and Sarah's information is according to the family bible. One name was illegible: " died in the Year of our Lord 1791 Son of Isaac Bennit, 22 Aug" From Revolustionary Incidents in Jamaica Queens: Jamaica, being somewhat central, was usually the headquarters of the British commandants of Long Island, Gen. Oliver Delancey, Tryon and others. The street was patrolled day and night, so that stragglers,deserters and runaway negroes were liable to be arrested and brought before thecommandant for examination. Persons traveling without passes were liable to be arrested by the British patrols. Hence when an officer impressed a farmer to go on any errand or business for him he gave him a pass.

Notes for Douwe Ditmars: From HISTORY OF QUEENS COUNTY; New York: W.W. Munsell & Co.; 1882 When the American army abandoned Long Island to the enemy the more active Whigs fled. Rev. Messrs. Keteltas and Froeligh crossed to the main, as did John I. Skidmore, Increase Carpenter, Joseph Robinson, Nehemiah Carpenter sen. and others. The property of those who fled was seized by the British authorities. But most of the Whigs staid at home with their families, and took their chance. The more obnoxious were arrested and taken to the British camp in Kings county. Among these were Elias Bayles, an aged and blind man, an elder in the Presbyterian church; David Lamberson, Abm. Ditmars, Robert Hinchman, John Thurston and others. The more quiet Whigs were not disturbed. They took the oath of allegiance to the crown, signed a paper of submission, and prayed to be restored to the royal favor, and wore a red ribbon on their hats. 16
