Geelong Advertiser, 31 Dec 1894
Mr Francis Bennett, an old colonist, passed away last Friday (says the "Horsham Times") at the ripe old age of 80 years. He was a colonist of 56 years' standing, having landed in Port Philip in 1838. At that time he was connected with the sea, having an interest in several schooners trading between Hobart and Western Port. He successfully piloted the first large vessel up the Yarra, the Black Swan. Soon after he gave up the sea and settled at Kardinia Estate, Geelong, where he spent the most of his life. He came to the Wimmera in 1874, and remained there until his death. He leaves a grown family of nine.

Francis married HERD Mary 17 Jul 1839, St. James' Anglican Church, Melbourne VIC. Mary (daughter of HERD John, JP and PARK Janet) was born Abt 1822, Old Park, Belfast ANT; died 24 May 1885, Kewell VIC; was buried 25 May 1885, Horsham Cemetery, Horsham VIC. [Group Sheet]
