Benning is worth a longer article, describing both the reasons why he wasn't popular and his role in securing recognition for New Hampshire as separate from the Massachusetts colony.
I also think Benington, Vermont was named for him, but can't confirm it to mu satisfaction. If anyone can verify this, please add it to the article. Lou I 19:25, 11 Jan 2004 (UTC)

My apologies. A reference on this page prompted me to dig a little deeper. After further review, I have determined Elizabeth (wife of Benjamin Underwood) to be the daughter of Gov. John Wentworth, which makes her the sister of Gov. Benning Wentworth. CCDesigner ( talk) 21:03, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

In this edit Dabberoni15 reverted my addion of the OldStyleDate template. MOS:OSNS contains the following guideline:
If an article contains Julian calendar dates after 4 October 1582 (as in the October Revolution), or if a start-of-year date other than 1 January was in force in the place being discussed, or both, a footnote should be provided on the first usage, explaining the calendar usage adopted for the article. The calendar usage should be compatible with this guideline.
I feel the use of the {{ OldStyleDate}} template serves the same purpose as a footnote. In any case, I believe it is not a good idea to totally remove any mention that the article contains Julian dates later than 4 October 1582.
The same editor has made similar changes to Thomas Penn which I do not agree with. Jc3s5h ( talk) 18:19, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
In Old Style dates, Wentworth was born on August 3, 1696 and died on 25 October, 1770.
