@GlenCall1 It's a little difficult to find the requested film number with certainty, but we can make a reasonable guess.
Certainly it is not film #6615 as that contains records from New Castle, Delaware.
You might want to take a look at the FamilySearch Catalog. If you enter United States, Vermont, Bennington, Bennington in the place field and click Search, you'll see what records we have for that place. From the text you posted, we can guess that it might have been Town records. Try clicking that in the search results. One title shows: Town and vital records, 1741-1930; with some deeds, 1741-1809. Covers the right time span. Click the title and scroll to Film/Digital Notes. You'll find 2 films. Both digitized and searchable. The first one covers the dates that would be the most likely. You can click the camera icon to browse the images.
Good luck in your search!
