- Unknown Findagrave contributor:
Viola Lewis was born Viola Bennett, daughter of John W. Bennett and Emma S. Bennett (I believe the S. in Emma S. is her married name from a previous marriage "Skief" as the 1920 Census shows a step-son named Jim Skief living in the household, and further states that it is the second marriage for both parties). Viola has an older sister Mary E. Bennett. I do not know if she ever married, who to, etc. Viola also has a younger brother John Clarence Bennett born 12/31/1911 who is shown living with Viola and Leman in the 1930 Census. John Clarence, who also went by Wilney and W.C. "John" Bennett married Faye Albin Watson and begat Katy Sue Bennett, Rosalie Bennett, and Kenneth Doyle Bennett. I believe they are all deceased. I will attempt to add the findagrave link to W.C. "John" Bennett and Faye Albin Watson to this memorial. I do know Kenneth Doyle Bennett lived in Springfield, Sangamon County, Illinois at the time of his death on July 5, 2000
