Some say her maiden name is unknown. Others say:"This woman was actually Alice Snaylehttps://familysearch.org/photos/people/4356655 1575-aft 1647 who married 1st in England to Thomas Pierce c1600 and had a daughter Elizabeth Pierce. Then, this family emigrated on a supply ship to Charles City in 1618. The husband Thomas Pierce was killed in an Indian Massacre at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin's_Hundred Martin's Hundred] on 26 Mar 1622 at which time his widow and daughter were captured by the Indians who held them for ransom for around a year.
After their release, the widow Alice Snayle Pierce married Thomas Bennett and her daughter chose him as her legal guardian to protect her rights to the estate of her deceased financè John Filmer in 1624.
There were no children of this 2nd marriage as Alice was almost 50 years old by the time they married in 1624."Janet St John, Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
She bought 150 acres from her neighbor, Justinian Cooper the 2nd of April 1644 for a cow and a calf and a barrell of corn. Justinian Cooper had previously patented 1050 acres in 1636 lying at the head of Lawne's Creek. Alice Bennett, sometime after purchasing the above mentioned 150 acres from Justinian Cooper, deeded the same to her grandaughters Sarah and [[ Jackson-4473|Mary Jackson]]. They were probably very young at the time as she seems to have married Thomas Bennett about 1624. Her grandaughters were married by 1666.Boddie, 17th Century Isle of Wight Co., Vol 1 pg 293,
