Benjamin Bathurst (1872-1947)

Lt.-Col. The Honorable Allen Benjamin Bathurst (25 June 1872-8 October 1947), was a British Member of Parliament. He usually went by his middle name and was known as "Benjamin Bathurst". [ [http://www.thepeerage.com/p10619.htm thePeerage.com - Augusta Warbuton and others] cites Charles Mosley, Burke's Peerage and Baronetage, 106th edition, volume 1, page 215.]

Bathurst was the third son of Allen Bathurst, 6th Earl Bathurst, and his first wife the Hon. Meriel (née Warren). He commanded the 5th Battalion of the Gloucestershire Regiment and achieved the renk of Lieutenant-Colonel in the Territorial Force Reserve. In 1895 he was elected as a Conservative to the House of Commons for Cirencester, a seat he held until 1906 and again from 1910 to 1918 when the constituency was abolished. He was also a Deputy Lieutenant of Gloucestershire.

Bathurst married Augusta Ruby, daughter of Lord Edward Spencer-Churchill, in 1902. He died in October 1947, aged 75. His grandson and namesake is the prominent naval commander Sir Benjamin Bathurst.
