The information for the family of George and Elizabeth nee Bennett supplied by Jeannie Hodkinson (nee Weeks, born Dorset) and includes information from the death certificate of Elizabeth and marriage certificate of David to Sarah Hancock and death cert. of David). Jeannie is a descendant of George and Elizabeth nee Bennett. Death certificate gives age at death as 73 years. Therefore born between April & October1805.
