Kenneth Hargreaves

Brigadier Kenneth Hargreaves CBE TD (23 February 1903 – 27 March 1990) was a British soldier and industrialist who held several local offices in Yorkshire.

Hargreaves was commissioned into the West Yorkshire Regiment in the Territorial Army in 1922. He later transferred to the Royal Artillery.

Hargreaves married Else Markenstam (d. 1968) in 1958, and adopted his stepchildren by that marriage, Ingrid Mary and Peter Hargreaves-Allen. He subsequently married Hon. Margaret Lane-Fox, the daughter of George Lane-Fox, 1st Baron Bingley, on 15 February 1969.

Hargreaves served as Lord Lieutenant of the West Riding of Yorkshire from 1970 until 1974, when, as a result of the reorganization of county governments, he became Lord Lieutenant of West Yorkshire until 1978. He was appointed a Deputy Lieutenant of West Yorkshire on 4 May 1978. ["London Gazette", issue no.47529, 9 May 1978]
