Find a Grave Ancestry 

According to the Find a Grave memorial bios for William Peter Bennett III and for Thomas Fullalove Bennet, Hannah Elizabeth Goad was his 2nd wife, and they married in 1741. Her memorial doesn't give a marriage date for her husband named as David Dalton Sr, but it does link to their children, the first being born in 1754. This would indicate that William Peter Bennett III would have been her first husband, and that she would have married her second husband, David Dalton Sr, approximately 1753 (estimated 1 year before the birth of their first child).
