Thomas Meyrick

Thomas Meyrick

Sir Thomas Charlton Meyrick, 1st Baronet (14 March 1837-30 July 1921), known as Thomas Charlton until 1858, was a Welsh Conservative Member of Parliament.

Born Thomas Charlton, he was the son of John Chivarton Charlton. He assumed by Royal license the surname of Meyrick (which was that of his maternal grandfather Thomas Meyrick) in lieu of his patronymic in 1858. He was returned to Parliament for Pembroke in 1868, a seat he held until 1874. In 1880 he was created a Baronet, of Bush in the County of Pembroke.

Meyrick married Mary Rhoda, daughter of Richard Frederick Hill, in 1860. He died in July 1921, aged 84, and was succeeded in the baronetcy by his eldest son Frederick. Lady Meyrick died in 1924.
