Probably Foster: s. George, of Salisbury (city), gent. QUEEN'S COLL. matric. 25 Nov. 1778, aged 24; B.A. 1782, M.A. 1786.
This is the only Edmund Benson in either Foster or Venn; the fact that he is MA on his subscription to both Bramshaw (1806) and Hornington (1812) would point to the man in Foster, even though he would have been 52 in 1806.
