Veno & Bennette Families of Weymouth Massachusetts

I'm helping our son trace his roots. We currently reside in Massachusetts. We would like to find ancestors of Wilson T Bennette (sr) born about 1858. He was the father of Cedric (b 10/25/1889), James Euclid R (b 4/8/1891), and Wilson T Bennette (b. 1896). We believe he (Wilson Sr) was born in Brooklyn NY in 1858, and married Mildred "Millie" E Lewis (b. 7/17/1870) of Wiscasset ME. They were married in Everett MA on 10/22/1888).

Wilson T Bennette (sr) was an actor who passed away in 1900 while in New Brunswick Canada, performing with his acting troupe from Boston. He is buried in Marysville/Fredericton New Brunswick Canada.

We're also seeking any Veno (Veneau Vigneau) family members who may have information on William (Guillam) Veno (Veneau Vigneau) who was born abt Aug 1837 and was married to Susan Perry (Susanne Poirier?). William Veno passed away in 1914 in Weymouth Massachusetts. He may originally have been from Nova Scotia.

Also, many photographs are posted at www.venocousins.com that I've been unable to identify. If anyone has any information on the unidentified photos, it would be greatly appreciated!
