So looks like the right William then

Wilhelmina buried at Evergreen Cemetery, could there be a family grave there - Wonder if it is worth checking with Evergreen Cemetery to see if William Bennett Snr and Emma Bennett or even Mary Garrod/Bennett are buried there ?

William was buried at Evergreen Cemetery. He died 06 Feb 1928. His son Herbert was the informant. He is listed as widowed. Unfortunately his DOB  and names of his parents are listed as "Unknown".

Gosh and thank you both what a lot of work you have done on my behalf. I really do appreciate it and Sandra the flowers really made me smile. So thanks for everything. I had looked on the websites but obviously hadn't put the right criteria in.

Can I be extra cheeky, I had looked at the US City directories and wondered what bds meant. I shall try to find out more about Mick Stove Co. Finally is S E Cor a company or an address this is from the 1885 directory for Stephen.

If you want any help with the north east of England ask.

Regards
Rosemary

bds means boards and S E Cor is probably Southeast corner.

"I see a tree with the same William married to a Emily Harwood Macraw died 1936 Whittington Norfolk with a picture of his grave ... "

I had seen this tree as well but had discounted this William as the only common denominator was Whittington and the date of birth at 1852 was just so out,the family name of Herbert was there though. So Im still waiting for corroboration one way or the other.

Thanks again
Rosemary
