Burial Rites Today For Owen T. Bennett
Brother of Charles O. Bennett Passed Away in Terre Haute, Friday
  Brief burial services will be conducted at Greenlawn cemetery Saturday afternoon for Owen T. Bennett who died at his home in Terre Haute Thursday.  Mr. Bennett was the brother of Charles O. Bennett, Franklin monument builder.  He was 67 years of age.
  Funeral rites were conducted at the Bennett home in Terre Haute before the body was brought to Franklin.  The Rev. E. E. Aldrich, pastor of the Grace M. E. church, will be in charge of the services at the cemetery. 
  Mr. Bennett was born Nov. 24th, 1867, the son of George and Rosena Bennett, at the old Bennett home, south of Bloomington.  He is survived by the wife and one married son, Claude, now living at Bloomfield.
  He also has one brother, Mr. Bennett of Franklin, and one sister, Mrs. Mattie Hayworth, living in Decatur, Ill.  Mrs. Hayworth will arrive in Franklin in time for the burial.
  Mr. Bennett passed away about 7 a.m. Thursday, following an illness which extended back to last June. He underwent a major operation a few years ago, but never fully recovered.
  Mr. Bennett for many years was in business in Indianapolis, but sold his art store and moved to Terre Haute and had been in business there since, for about seven years.
[NOTE: Hebert's lists Warren Co., Iowa as the birthplace for Bennett]

Descendants of John Parham, Sr.
