DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with William by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with William:
"Virginia Marriages, 1785-1940," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XR49-CFZ : 5 December 2014), William Bennett and Sarah Graham, 22 Oct 1796; citing Prince Edward, Virginia, reference ; FHL microfilm 33,254.
It would help to know the middle names where possible. I don't recognize the references to Sarah Minards or the place of death. The sources on this profile are too weak to make any real connection to Anson County NC Bennett's.
