1778-1849
LANIER.

John Bennett was born in Duplin, now Sampson County, North Carolina in 1778, and died at his home in eastern Lowndes County, now Lanier, in Georgia in 1849. His wife was Sarah (Sallie) Register, born 1785, in Sampson County, North Carolina, daughter of John Register, R. S. They were married in North Carolina and soon after the birth of their first child, moved to Bulloch County, Georgia, where her parents had already moved. About 1827-28, the family moved to Lowndes County and located on the east side of the Alapaha River( territory cut into Clinch County 1850 and into Lanier County 1920). The children of John and Sallie Bennett were:

1. Dixonb. 1805, m. Sarah Driggers, daughter of William.
2. Elizabethb. 1807, m. Joel Griffis, of Clinch County.
3. Pollieb. 1813, m. James Carter, of Echols County.
4. Felixb. 1817, m. Rebecca Smith, daughter of Isaac.
5. Abrahamb. 1823, m. Catherine McGill, daughter of Peter.
6. Dicyb. 1824, m. Barzilla Douglas, son of Eaton.
7. Wileyb. 1825, m. Luraney Harnage, daughter of George.
8. Reddingb. 1829, m. Anne Harnage, daughter of George.

John Bennett died testate in 1849, leaving a will naming Dixon Bennett and James Carter as executors. They qualified in Lowndes Court of Ordinary, and sold the plantation and timberlands at public sale in January, 1852, before the court-house door at Polk, the then county site of Clinch County (name later changed to "Magnolia"). These lands were lots 466 and 501, 11th district of old Irwin County. Wiley Bennett became the owner of lot 501, and Barzilla Douglas of lot 466. The executors applied for dismission October 4, 1852, having closed out the estate.

Mrs. Bennett lived some years after her husband's death, and died about 1868. She and her husband were buried at Wayfare Church, of which she was a member for over twenty years. In the 1860 Census of Clinch County she was living with William B. Bennett, a son of Dixon.

LOWNDES

John Bennett, oldest son of William and Mary, was born in 1796 in Effingham County, the family being cut off into Bulloch County a few months after by the creation of that county. He grew up in Bulloch County and was married in Bryan County about 1815 to Frances (Fannie) Harris, born 1800 in North Carolina. She was a sister of Thompson Harris and Hampton Harris, both from North Carolina and early settlers of Appling County. The Harris family first resided in Bryan County after moving to Georgia from North Carolina. The children of John and Frances were:

After marriage, John Bennett with his family removed to Lowndes County about 1826 and located in that portion now in Brooks County. He died in 1836 at the age of about forty years in Lowndes County. His widow later married Asa Geiger, a cousin of her first husband and a near-neighbor. Geiger's first wife, Nancy, had died about 1838. About 1841, Asa Geiger and family moved to Ware County where he bought a farm in the present Manor district, and he and his wife died there. They were members of Providence Church near Manor.
John Bennett was living in Lowndes County in October, 1828 when he joined with the other heirs of his father in executing two deeds to estate lands in Bulloch County to David Strickland.

Asa Geiger removed from Bryan County in 1830 to Gadsden 'County, Fla., and two or three years later moved back to Georgia and lived in Lowndes County In the portion later cut into Brooks County. He then moved to Jefferson County, Fla., 1833 but was back in Lowndes County in the 1840 census. His Jefferson County home was on a tract of 80 acres in Section 4, Township 2, which he joined by his wife Nancy sold to Daniel Lingo, Feb, 7, 1835 (Deed Book "C", page 48, Jefferson County). On Aug. 13, 1840, lot of land 43, 16th district of Lowndes (now Echols County) was granted him by the State, it having been drawn by him in the 1820 lottery while living in Bryan County. He moved there to that location and lived there until he moved to Ware County in 1843, where he settled in the present Manor district.

Following his first wife's death about 1845, Mr. Gelger married Mrs. Fannie (Frances) Bennett, born 1800 in North Carolina, widow of John Bennett (Vol. I), and sister to Thompson Harris (Vol.I) and Hampton Harris (Vol,111). There were no children born by that marriage.
