About Bennet, NE

Bennet was platted in 1871 when the railroad was extended to that point. The village was founded on land previously owned by William Roggenkamp as a station for a rail line being laid by the Midland Pacific Railway which ran from Lincoln to Nebraska City. It was originally named Bennett's Station for John Bennett, officer of the Midland Pacific Railway. In 1881, the village was incorporated as Bennet. By the early 1900s, the village had become a prosperous commercial and social center for the area.
