Charles Cox (brewer)
Sir Charles Cox (1660–1729) was an English brewer and Whig Member of Parliament for Southwark from 1695 to 1712. For many years afterwards the MP for Southwark would generally be a brewer.
In 1709 he began to offer German Protestant refugees from the Palatinate ("Palatines") living space in his warehouses. Soon there were nearly fourteen hundred, and the residents of Southwark gave a petition to Parliament to have them removed.〔Thomas Allen, Nathaniel Whittock. ''History of the County of Surrey.'' Hinton, 1831. Page 137.〕
When the Duke of Marlborough returned to the United Kingdom shortly after the death of Queen Anne in 1714, Sir Charles led the procession into London on , earning him a place in a satire by Ned Ward.〔Howard William Troyer. ''Ned Ward of Grub Street: a study of sub-literary London in the eighteenth century.'' Routledge, 1968. Page 104.〕 Not long afterwards a fire in his warehouses lost him thousands of pounds.〔(Petition by Sir Charles Cox ) to Parliament〕 He was appointed High Sheriff of Surrey for 1717–18. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= COX, Charles (d. 1729), of Hay’s Wharf, Mill Lane, St. Olave’s, Southwark, Surr. ) 〕 He was ruined in the South Sea Bubble of 1720.
In 1734 the case of Lady Cox was heard and it was put on record that he had been a bigamist.〔''Reports of cases argued and determined in the High Court of Chancery: and of some special cases adjudged in the Court of King's Bench ()'', Volume 3. Edited by W. P. Williams et al. J. Butterworth and Son, 1826. Page 339.〕
