The Workingmen's Benevolent Association was a 19th-century labor organization that consisted mainly of coal miners. It was organized in 1868 in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, with John Siney as president. In 1869, the organization called a strike of coal-miners from May 5 to June 16. There were some gains resulting from the strike. The union was organized in an area of alleged Molly Maguires activity. Strikes were called in 1868, 1869, and 1871. Two unarmed strikers were shot and killed in Scranton during the 1871 strike by mine owners' guards.
