Hi

Welcome to the addictive world of family research!!

What county of England are we looking at for your Bennison's? Do you have any dates even approximate? Do you know if your Bennison's have always been in more or less the same area? Do you know what towns?

Sorry to grill you!!!!! - but the more you give the more someone can see if they "connect". If you do have a little more info, say your Bennison's did stay pretty static to a county, I could look on the 1881 British Census and see who of the Bennison's were about then.

I've just had a look at the National Index for all the area's covered in the British Isles for the 1881 and there are over 9000 Bennison's and its variants listed!

For research from 1837 to 1901 you may find this site very useful http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/ You can look up births, deaths and marriages on it. It's by no means complete yet but is being regularly updated.

This site -http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/index.html is an excellent source of inforamtion and tips on family research - But read this page first http://www.genuki.org.uk/gs/Newbie.html it's especially to help newcomers to get started.

Good luck and happy hunting - if I can help with the 1881 Census I most certainly will.
