Benjamin Hanbury
Benjamin Hanbury (1778–1864) was an English nonconformist historian.
==Life==
Hanbury was born in Wolverhampton on 13 May 1778. Most of his education was received from his uncle, the Rev. Dr. John Humphrys, pastor of Union Street congregation, Southwark, who later became principal of Mill Hill School. For a time he was engaged in a retail business; then in June 1803, through the influence of Ebenezer Maitland, he obtained a post in the Bank of England, and remained there till 1859.
Hanbury became one of the deacons at Union Street on 2 May 1819, and held office till 1857, when he moved to Clapham, and then to Brixton. For more than 30 years he was one of the "dissenting deputies", who protected the political rights of nonconformist bodies; and he entered the debate on church establishments which followed the repeal of the Test Act and Corporation Act in 1828. He was a member of Society for Promoting Ecclesiastical Knowledge, instituted for the publication of works bearing on nonconformist theories.〔
On the formation (1831) of the Congregational Union of England and Wales, Hanbury became its treasurer, and held the post for the rest of his life. He died on 12 January 1864 at his residence, 16 Gloucester Villas, Brixton, and was buried on 19 January in Norwood cemetery.〔
