It's very possible that this Census record is from Elizabeth Bennett Bennett, daughter of William Bennett and Barbary Grimes, wife of William Bennett, son of Isaac Bennett and Margaret Grimes. According to http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/p/e/a/Christina-M-Pearson/GENE1-0004.html They had two sons named Samuel. Charles Elledge database only shows one Samuel, eight children altogether.

Note that Census info indicate 6 children, 5 living, and that she is widowed. But other sources show up to seven children, and that William was still alive at this time. Have yet to resolve this anomaly.

One source has her death in 1933. That would put her death at 90 if 1843 birth is accurate, 92 if 1841 birth is accurate.

142. Bennett, Elizabeth, Died 1933, age 92 years. BK-6 (Born ca. 1841)
Pin Hook Cemetery, Syria, Indiana.

Janice Pickens provided this information:

BENNETT, Elizabeth b. 31 Aug. 1843 d. 26 Nov. 1933 Wife of William; Daughter of Elizabeth Hammond Bennett. It is also noted in the cemetery book that, although she is buried there, there is no stone.
The notation is a bit confusing, because it appears to be self-referential. I think it's the aforementioned Elizabeth Bennett Bennett.
