Biography of George de Benneville (1703-1793), son of French Huguenot refugee George de Benneville of the French nobility. George the son was born in London, England, with Princess Anne and her Danish husband Prince George for godparents. He became a Universalist while touring north Africa, and was excommunicated by the Huguenots. He also became a physician. After serving missions in England and Euorpe (France, Germany and Holland, chiefly), he immigrated in 1741 to Philadelphia. There he helped with the publication of the Sower Bible, and married Esther Bertolet in 1745. He was ever active in preaching Universalism, and supported his two sons who served with the Revoutionary Army when war came.
