Richard Bennett was a nephew of Edward Bennett, a wealthy merchant of London and member of the Virginia Company. Richard Bennett was a member of the House of Burgesses in 1629 and 1631, and member of the Council 1642-9, removing in the latter year to Maryland. He returned to Virginia and in 1651 was appointed by Parliament one of the Commissioners to reduce Virginia and Maryland. He was Governor of the Colony from 30 April, 1652, to March, 1655. In 1658 he was again a member of the
Council. In 1666 he was a Major-General of militia, and in the "Sainsbury Abstracts" we find that in that year Thomas Ludwell, writing to Bennett, Lord Arlington, states that Major-General Bennett bore his (Arlington's) arms, and was he believed of his family. His will is dated 15 March, 1674, and v/as proved in Nansemond County
12 April, 1675. He married Mary Ann Utie, and they had issue:
(1) Richard of Greenbury Point, Maryland, who was drowned shortly before his father's death, leaving issue; (2) Anne Bennett, who married, 1st, Theodorick Bland of Westover, 2nd, Colonel St. Leger; Codd of Northumberland county, Va., and afterward of Maryland.
She died 1687. (3) A daughter, married Col. Charles Scarborough
of Accomac county, Va.
Robert Bennett, a brother of Edward Bennett of London, also came to Virginia prior to January, 1623-4, and in 1648 Mr. Philip Bennett, administrator of Robert Bennett, had a grant of land in Nansemond county.
