Hank Bennett

The Bennett family is a middle class family of Irish descent living in the fictional town of Harmony on NBC's daytime drama Passions. The Bennetts were on the ruthless Alistair Crane's bad side for years, but they earned Alistair's full wrath in the summer of 2005 when Alistair's granddaughter, Fancy, complained to her grandfather about Sam's son, Noah, incensing the Crane patriarch. As a result, Sam was fired from his position as chief of police, a move which divided the Cranes and Bennetts and threw the police force into turmoil. After Alistair fell into a coma in 2006, his wife, Theresa, reinstated Sam as police chief; once Fancy and Noah broke up, the brunt of the vendetta ended.

The Bennetts have married into many of the other families in Harmony, including the Cranes, the Lopez-Fitzgeralds, and the Standishes - Sam and Grace's three children, Noah, Kay, and Jessica, and Kay and Jessica's children, Maria and Samuel, are Standishes, and Kay and Jessica inherited the magical powers that runs in the Standish female line, though Jessica (as Kay says in the series finale) "chooses not to use it".

In the book Hidden Passions, Sam and Hank's parents were Benjamin Bennett and Margaret Joyce Bennett. They had at least four sons, including Sam and Hank (at least two sons were between Sam and Hank). Information in the book has not been confirmed on-screen and is not considered to be official since the information seen on the show contradicts much of what was said in the book. The show has never confirmed the name of Sam and Hank's mother or the existence of the other brothers.

All the women of the Standish family by blood have supernatural powers; out of all the standish descendents Charity Standish is seemingly the most powerful Standish descendent prophercized to be born with extreme powers of goodness. Some standish women have the power to see visions of the past, the present or the future, well others have an affinity for witchcraft, but none of the Standish descendents powers are seemingly as potent as Charity's. It is unknown if any of the men of the Standish family by blood have any supernatural powers.
