    Notes:

    From Jean Shoenmaker:


    This is the earliest record I've seen for Nichols Bennett.

    Aquilla and Susannah didn't come to Upper Canada until 1810 and family lore is that Susannah had a "babe in arms" at the time.

    After ten years of research into my family I came to the conclusion that though the story my aunt wrote in her book was true she had wrong names attached to the right situation. She said, to paraphrase, "When Diademia was a little girl in Holland she was very ill.

    When she began to get better a Dutchman she had befriended gave her a root of his prize peony told her to keep it always as it was a symbol that God would take care of her no matter what happened . The family moved to Ireland where she married Peter Bennett an Irishman." My aunt went on to say, "When the family wagon was packed the youngest daughter ran back to dig up a root of the peony to take to her new home. When they were floating the wagons with her household goods and her children across the Niagara River she was on horseback with her babe in her arms and the root of the peony in her saddlebag."

    Apparently when the German families were fleeing persecution in their homeland they came to America through Holland.
    The girl to whom the Dutchman gave the peony was apparently Margaretha Stroeher who married Peter Cober in America. When her youngest daughter, Susannah was leaving the family home for Upper Canada she ran back to dig up the peony to take with her.

    Both the story and the pink peony are in the famiily to this day. But a friend tells me Susannah wasn't on horseback with the baby in her arms as the horse would be too low in the water.
