The obituary5660 for Mrs Mary Bennitt(sic), wife of Linn Williamson, mentions that she was the daughter of Uriel F Bennitt and Pheoba Townsend, and Mary was one of the descendants of Luther Townsend who settled in Bath in 1851. The date and place of the marriage of Uriel Bennett and Phebe Townsend is soley a guess based on birth dates of children and locations for Uriel and Phebe about that date.

Phebe's obitiuary6051 states that, on her mother's side, she was a descendant of Gilbert Ferris, an American soldier during the Revolutionary War. It may be that her mother's maiden name was Ferris, but that, as yet, hasn't been documented.
