She is not listed with the rest of Adam Jackson Bennett and Mary Jane Harvey Bennett family as the time of the 1860 Sabine County Census. Might she actually be the daughter of another Bennet family? She is shown, however, by both White & Toole and Kay Parker McCary as a daughter of Adam Jackson Bennett and Mary Jane Elizabeth Harvey Bennett.
