Tom Bennett was married to Sarah Catherine Reynolds on July 26, 1850.

He died in the war around Ft Smith and I have wondered if he is not one of the many unknown graves at Fort Smith National Cemetery.

Private, Confederate Army......33rd Regiment, Arkansas Infantry Company G

I would love to state that he died heroically fighting for the cause, but the reality is he was about 35 years old and the weather was cold and wet with no medicines or decent foods. He probably died of pneumonia or something similar.
