BENNETT PRODIGY

Now, before going on any further with the Bennett Family History, I want to give what I would call a prodigy:
Rev. Elias and Silas Bennett and Phoebe (Bennett) Reader were brothers and sister and were one-half Queens and they had (2) one-half brothers, namely: David and Jonathan Bennett and no Queen blood in them. Now David Bennett had (1) son, named William Bennett and Jonathan Bennett had (1) son named Silas Bennett. Now these two boys were first cousins, and they married (2) sisters, the daughters of Phoebe Bennett (Reeder), who was their own first cousins. Now their children were double first cousins on their mother's side (Queen) and double second cousins on their father's side of the Bennett family.
