* Gone to Texas - Bennett and Related Families*

Updated November 25, 2005


During the time of the Republic of Texas settlement land grants it was not uncommon for a traveler in the United States to come upon an abandoned farm house with G.T.T. (Gone To Texas) painted on the door. There are many citizens of the Republic of Texas found in this family line.

This site lists only those in my children's direct line.For more information on these family lines see "My Complete Family Tree" Link in "RELATED LINKS" below.

I have not “verified" this information in total. I regret any omissions or mistakes as they are not intentional on my part. Please contact me with any additions or corrections.

I would like to thank all the sources for their work and help in my research of these families. I am shareing with you what they have preserved for us.

Check Virtual Cemetery link under "RELATED LINKS" for pictures of grave markers for this family line. (search hint: enter the cemetery information to pull up all those buried in the same place for quick search)I am looking for pictures of Calvin Lafayette Bennett's grave marker from Long Creek Cemetery, Dallas County, Texas (destroyed by vandals in early 2001)

{Note: All entries shown as Bennett Family Cemetery, Mesquite, Dallas County, Texas are in what is now called the Bennett Memorial Garden within Laurel Oaks Memorial Park}

I have compiled a book "The Families of Long Creek Cemetery, Sunnyvale, Dallas County, Texas". It contains, the history, Family Tree, obits, pictures and much more on the families buried at Long Creek Cemetery. Contact Sandra Stone at longcreekcemetery@hotmail.com for priceing and shipping information. See the link for "Families of Long Creek Cemetery for more information"
