Sarah Fernetta "Nettie" Bennett

(6 Apr 1863 - )



Married about 1888 to Newburn Allen. When her mother died in 1887, she was listed as Nettie Hagler - her first Allen child was born 1890. I believe she had a daughter by her first husband - see step-granddaughter in 1910.

In 1900, there was a George Feaster, b. Feb 1879, age 21, married 1 year, with wife, Clara, b. May 1884, age 16, b. MO - I suspect this was Clara Hagler, eldest daughter of Nettie.
Ann Feaster, aunt, b. Jul 1841, age 58, single, lived with them. In the household next door was the widowed William Feaster, b. Mar 1854, age 46 with three children - likely George's father. All were born in Missouri. George & Clara were not there in 1910.
