Bennett’s from 1913
This is a collection of the earliest pictures we can find of the Bennett family.
As the last of the six kids, Bryson, I’ll try to add captions so future
generations will know who is in the pictures as well as a little about the
person. Unfortunately I came along after the other kids had grown up but I’ll do
the best I can. Many thanks to Suzanne (Holtz) Krueger, Margaret's daughter, you
wouldn't be seeing this without her.
This is the whole family then. I’m guessing about 1918-19. They were married in 1913. that caption is screwed up

Mary holding George, Grace (no head), Wayne Jr., Wayne Sr.
Carl was Mary’s sister Margaret’s kid
In case you can’t read that….
2nd L Mary Bennett holding George children are Grace & Wayne
1900’s
She’s the 2nd from left.
Check out the model T.
Eunice & Margaret fooling around. That bicycle wheel looks like Margaret’s hallo don’t you think?
3rd from left back row Robin (Eunice’s), Melville Jr. (Margaret’s), Diane (George’s)
I’m guessing this was in the early 1950’s
Grace Bennett & brother Wayne Jr.
Grace looks about 4 so I’m guessing 1918. Check out Wayne’s dress I guess this is how they dressed kids back then.
The kids look a lot older here, maybe 1920?
Mary, Grace, Wayne Jr., Wayne Sr., George
This is definitely maybe 1920 something?
Wayne Jr., Grace, George
We're ganging up on Margaret. See me peeking around the left side.
Here they all are with aunt Margaret. Great line up don't you think?
Wayne and the dog look like they would rather be somewhere else
.
George is getting it here. Wonder where I am.
another one of aunt Margaret with the kids, wonder how she got them to hold still like this.
Just for fun I thought I'd stuck in a late model Bennett. See what evolution can do?
