He is mentioned by name on 30 pages of http://books.google.com/books?id=5IRGncJcuRUC&vq=benson&dq=%22george+benson%22+crandall&lr=&output=html&source=gbs_summary_s&cad=0 The Communitarian Moment: The Radical Challenge of the Northampton Association, much of the book concerns him and his activities as one of the most prominent of the 11 founders of the Northhampton Association, a New England industrial/abolitionist group.  Benson's association with Crandall (described in http://books.google.com/books?lr=&output=html&id=YZ9m9OZwG4EC&dq=May%2C+Some+Recollections+of+our+Antislavery+Conflict&pg=PR1&lpg=PR1&q=benson Some Recollections of Our Antislavery Conflict By Samuel Joseph May is a minor part of his notability. He was a prominent abolitionist who introduced Sojourner Truth, who worked for him for a time, to abolitionism.  The article could easily be greatly expanded. Easily passes  based on refs already in article, which should be consulted before nomination.  The commonness of his name is a major obstacle to googling
