Charles Bennett died on 11 December 1836, at age 42, in Marysville, Vermilion County, Illinois, POTOMAC (Marysville) was first settled as a farm by John Smith (plain) in 1845. Isaac Meneley and others soon came to help Smith make a town. Both Smith and Meneley had wives named Mary, so they hit upon the plan of calling the town Marysville, after the two best Marys then living in town. The post office of Marysville was suspended for awhile, and when it was reinstated, the postoffice department changed the name to Potomac because of the near proximity to Myersville which seemed to confuse the mail carriers with the name Marysville. Marysville was incorporated into a village in 1876 but soon lost its identity as a name and is known as Potomac. The artesian wells have made Potomac famous in the county.^42,43,8
He was buried after 11 December 1836 in Potomac, Vermilion County, Illinois, Buried in Potomac Cemetery.^42,44,45
