If anyone happens to look up J.M.Benn on SGDW you'll see they have him as born in Stamford. I believe this is an error. FreeBMD have his birth registered at Lutterworth which includes the parish of Swinford which is itself close to Stanford Leicestershire. The CWGC register has Joseph Miller Benn name as John which is clearly another error. One I must get round informing them about.
