- Cecil Weld-Forester, 1st Baron Forester
Cecil Weld-Forester, 1st Baron Forester (7 April 1767-23 May 1828), was a British Member of Parliament.
Born Cecil Forester, he assumed the additional surname of Weld by Royal licence in 1811, upon inheriting Willey Park from his cousin George Forester. He was elected to the House of Commons for Wenlock in 1790, a seat he held until 1820. The latter year he was raised to the peerage as Baron Forester, of Willey Park in the County of Shropshire.
Lord Forester married Lady Katherine Mary Manners, daughter of Charles Manners, 4th Duke of Rutland, in 1800. He died in May 1828, aged 61, and was succeeded in the barony by his eldest son John George Weld-Forester. Lady Forester died in 1829.
