Edward Trusted Bennett (1 July 1831 – 16 November 1908), best known as Edward T. Bennett, was a British botanist and psychical researcher.

Biography

Bennett was born in London. His younger brother was the botanist Alfred William Bennett. As a young man he collected plant specimens in Cornwall and the New Forest.[1][2] Bennett was the last Quaker in Britain to be disowned for holding different theological opinions. In 1873, he was disowned for supporting the heretical views of Charles Voysey.[3][4]

He was a member of the British National Association of Spiritualists and the first secretary of the Society for Psychical Research.[5] From 1882 to 1902 he worked as an assistant secretary for the Society.[6]

He died in Port Isaac, Cornwall.
