Bennet, Benjamin 1674-1726

Benjamin Bennet (c. 1674 – 1 September 1726) was a English Presbyterian minister.

Bennet was born in Wellsborough, in Sibson, Leicestershire. In 1714, upon the death of Queen Anne and the accession of King George I, Bennet published some sermons under the title Several Discourses Against Popery in view of the dangers of a restoration of the Catholic House of Stuart. In 1717 he published A Memorial of the Reformation, growing out of a sermon preached on George I's coronation, and was a Protestant view of the Reformation. A second, updated edition (dedicated to Lord Barrington) appeared in 1721 covering further episodes in English history such as the Civil War. This led to a disagreement with Zachary Grey, with Bennet defending himself in his Defence of the 'Memorial of the Reformation' (1723).
