Aubrey William de Vere Beauclerk (20 February 1801 – 1 February 1854) was the son of Charles George Beauclerk and Emily Charlotte Ogilvie. A former army major, he was a Member of Parliament (MP) for East Surrey 1832 to 1837 and was a political radical, active in the reform movement.〔Muriel Spark, ''Mary Shelley'', London: Cardinal (1989): 133.〕 He married Ida Goring on 13 February 1834. Together the couple had four children. On 7 December 1841 he married Rose Matilda Robinson. They had two children. Beauclerk has been romantically linked to the nineteenth-century writer Mary Shelley.〔Seymour, ''Mary Shelley''. London: John Murray (2000): 424-26.〕 He was known to have lived at Ardglass Castle in County Down, Ireland, and St. Leonard Lodge at Horsham, West Sussex, England. == Political career == As an MP Beauclerk supported the radical causes of the day, including the abolition of slavery and the discontinuation of tithes. He believed in a small, fixed duty on corn, and sought Church reform and an end to taxes on knowledge. Beauclerk was the only person, according to a letter from Mary Shelley to Claire Clairmont, to support Mary Shelley's son Percy Florence Shelley's bid become a member of parliament.〔''The Journals of Mary Shelley, 1814–44,'' Ed. Paula R. Feldman and Diana Scott-Kilvert, Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press (1995): Appendix III, 601.〕
