Don't forget about spelling variations. I've come across Benie, Beny, Benny, Beney, Binny, Binnie, Biny, Binney and Binie among others.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Thank you for the advice everyone, greatly appreciated. Sorry also for the late replies but we are back to loadshedding so our power is intermittent.
