My great grandmother was Hazel N Anderson Bennett.

We are not sure if she came from sweden or was a U.S. citizen. Her husband was Evans Peter Bennett. Their daughter Clarissa Eileen was my grandmother. If you know anything please let me know

If anyone knows more about Maud and or Hazels dad,please let me know. Thank you again for all your help.
My name is Timothy Evan Bennett and I live in Sacramento, Ca.  My Great Grandfather was William Bennett, my Grandfather was Evans Peter Bennett, My Father was Evan William Bennett.  Clair and Gladys were my aunts.  My Father was born in 1920 in Salt Lake City and he used to say that he did not know what happened to his mother, Hazel Anderson.  His Father, Evans, brought Clair, Hazel and my dad to Sacramento in 1925.  He worked at Southern Pacific until his death in 1946 in the S.P. Hospital in San Francisco.  He is buried in Sacramento.  Being born in 1954, I never knew my grand parents.  I would appreciate any correspondence regarding our family as I know next to nothing about their history.  Thank you.
Hi Tim,

This is Lexi. I wrote the note about Great grandma Hazel

Nice to talk to another member of the family ☺️

You have an uncle or had might be the better word. Hazel and Evan had 4 kids. 2 boys, 2 girls.

When Hazel left Evan she took the baby boy with her

One of your cousins is Joan C. Hawkins. Clarissa is her mother.

She would know more info then me

Please keep in touch

Lexi

p.S. did you put up the pictures of Clarissa on Ancestry?
The name of the little boy was Robert Bennett
Your grandma left when your father was 3. And your Aunt Clarissa was 9. No one really knows what happened to her. Evan is easy to find in the records. She had 4 last names that I know of. Two different marriage certificates. 1 birth certificate said she was born in Sweden, another says Kansas.

I'm still trying to figure out what happened to her and why she left her husband

EDIT3: On the 1920 census I see it says she immigrated 1894 na 1914, if it is the same Pete and Hazel with children Clarissa & Gladys.

Thank you. Does it say who her parants were or mention siblings?

On a marriage cert. in Bozeman Montana 10 Mar 1914, for a Evan P. and a Hazel. it mentions mother Maud Anderson, but it also says Hazel was b. in Erie Kansas. Have you check for a 1900 census?

On the census it just says Peter Bennett. And they are in Utah. 

Any chance you have the wrong Pete Bennett?

Well I see in 1930, in California, he is going by Evan Bennett and widowed and Clarissa is born in montana in both census. All the children have their mom as coming from Sweden.

Where did Hazel die? Any death certificate? Usually lists place of birth and parents.

Hazel is not a Swedish name.

In a search at Folkräkningar Swedish census you get four hits for three girls named Hazel. Two of them are born in the USA, the third has an English mother.

That part didnt make since to the family either.
We dont know when she died.she left her family behind when her daughter was 9. No one know what happened to her. Its like she fell off the face of the earth.

Thank you for helping.
No one knows what her middle name is.
She was born in 1888.
Don't Know if Claus Anderson was her father or if she was born in Mt Pleasent
Her father isnt claus anderson of Mt Pleasent, born april 1 1838
