Bio
His mother died when he was 3 months old and he was raised by his father & stepmother in Lebanon, Tennessee. Obituary: Daily Courier Gazette, McKinney, TX, September 21, 1914 (reprinted from the Celina Record). GOOD MAN GONE. C. O. Bennett, indeed a gentleman, died at 11 o'clock Monday night, September 14, 1914 after a week's sickness at his home a mile northeast of Celina. Deceased is survived by a wife and the following children: Frank Bennett and Clyde Bennett of Celina, Texas, Mrs. Emma Howard of Walnut Grove, Texas and Mrs. Ella Black of Eldorado, Oklahoma. The deceased was buried Tuesday afternoon at Cottage Hill Cemetery. Mr. Bennett was born in Lebanon, Tennessee. He came to Texas about 35 years ago and has resided all this time in Collin County, where every acquaintance speaks well of him. He was truly a good man and the community, as well as his family has lost a citizen that will be missed. Mr. Bennett's death is a shock to the entire community, and was brought on by a severe attack of malaria which had clogged the liver and vital organs. He was up and about ten days before, as we remember his calling at The Record office to pay his subscription and found it was not yet run out, so he renewed the paper to his daughter, Mrs. Ella Black of Eldorado, Oklahoma. Mr. Bennett was a man of big heart and liberality, always ready and willing to do his part in anything coming to hand. Peace to his ashes.
