The source for this grave site information is Louise Pettus, York County, SC historian and Winthrop College faculty member. Louise told me Olivia Hall Hoover showed her the spot where Andrew Bennett was buried.∼Andrew Jackson Bennett, called Andy, was a son of James S. or L. Bennett (c. 1787/92-1860s) of York County, South Carolina. Whether his mother was Lucinda R. (c. 1808/9-1860s) or a previous wife of Mr. Bennett's is not known to me. Andrew had at least one brother, perhaps a half brother, Doctor Green Bennett (1831-1895, Find A Grave # 67512971), and there may have been more brothers or half brothers: Colin Bennett (c. 1809), and Josiah A. Bennett (c. 1811). The Bennett family shows up in the 1850 census of York County, SC as: James S. Bennett, 58, born NC, farmer, $442 real estate, Lucinda R., 42, born York Dist. SC (as were the rest), Doctor G., 18, laborer, Andrew J., 25, laborer, Charlotte S., 18. (James is listed as James L. born c. 1787 in 1860). Andrew married Charlotte S. Lanier (c. 1832-1850s) sometime before 1850. They had two daughters: Olivia Jane Bennett (1851-1922, Mrs. Dennis Hall), and Elizabeth Lavinia Bennett (1855-1914, Mrs. William Crane). Sometime before 1860, Charlotte died, and Andrew married Sarah (c. 1841), who appears with him in the 1860 census: 1860, York District, SC Coats Tavern P. O. Andrew Benet, 35, overseer, $300 pers. estate, born York District, Sarah 19, domestic, born Chester District, Olivia J., 10, born York, Elizabeth, 6, born York Andrew served in the South Carolina Artillery, Confederate States Army. His brother, D. Green Bennett, also served in the Confederate Army, and lost an arm in the War. Andrew died at Fort Moultrie on 8 September 1863. I presume he would have been buried here.
