Jacob Bennett was born in 1735 in Connecticut according to AGBI and Barbour Collection. My father's research showed Jacob married Zipporah but he did not cite his sources nor know Zipporah's maiden name. In searching (google, myheritage.com, geni.com, ancestry.com, NEHGS,...) for more information on Zipporah I discovered other uncited references to Zipporah and some give her maiden name as Smith eg:

  1. JACOB5 BENNETT (ISSAC4, JOHN3, JOHN2, EDWARD1) was born 06 Oct 1735 in Preston, New London, CT, and died Bef. 1825. He married ZIPPORAH SMITH, daughter of SAMUEL SMITH.

which I found herehere in Genealogy.com.

Note there is some confusion possible when researching Jacob Bennett as he had a son with the same name and there was another Jacob Bennett born nearby only a few years apart. There is also confusion reseraching Zipporah Smith as there is a Zipporah Smith who married into the descendants of William Brewter so is better documented in Mayflower Society research.

Where and when were Jacob Bennett and Zipporah married? What was her maiden name and what can be discovered about her birth?
