Daughter of--
Oliver H. Bennett
and
Abigail Jones Bennett

"Frankie" was the 2nd of six children from her parents marriage.

NOTE: (1) There are alternate middle names for her father Oliver H. Bennett that sometimes causes confusion. (2) The middle name "Hughes" has been in the family for several generations passed down through the Bennett lineage with the caveat "that the middle name "Hughes" is thought to be from his maternal forbearers". (3) The middle name "Hampton" has been researched and documented too. (4) Whatever the source -- either family lore or research -- the middle initial is "H"; and he is one and the same personage.

In remembrance, for the many Findagrave volunteers to acknowledge, honor, and offer a sincere THANK YOU, for creating memorials, for memorial maintenance-caretakers, posting gravesite photos, and posting Findagrave memorial "flowers". These online memorials are FREE on the internet since the Findagrave web site was first envisioned. Now it is maintained by Ancestry, but is still FREE on the internet. Along with this THANK YOU, acknowledgement of the many Findagrave volunteers efforts includes: research of cemetery locations and gravesites, using their own resources (i.e., for travel, computer and scanning equipment, adding memorial "bio" and family "links", photographic equipment, photo editing, posting photos to Findagrave with descriptions and captions, managing the challenges of weather, photo lighting and shadows, photo close ups that are clear enough so the inscription is often readable even though weathered by time, and photo distance shots that give a wider view of the setting). These online Findagrave memorials are a welcome addition especially to family and to genealogy research. (HINT: Each photo caption lists the volunteer Findagrave username and date of posting. Each memorial lists the volunteer Findagrave username of "original creator" and "current maintenance-caretaker" at end of Findagrave memorial page.)
