Claude Granville Lancaster (30 August 1899 – 25 July 1977) was a British Army officer, coal industry director, and Conservative Party politician.
==Family and early life==
Claude Lancaster was born on 30 August 1899, the son of George Granville Lancaster, who bought Kelmarsh Hall near Market Harborough, Leicestershire, in 1902.〔http://www.kelmarsh.com/TheHall.aspx〕 Claude Lancaster's grandfather was John Lancaster, a coal owner and MP for Wigan in the 19th Century.〔'Colonel C.G. Lancaster', ''Times'' 27 July 1977.〕
Lancaster was educated at Eton College and the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. He passed out of Sandhurst in 1918 and was commissioned into the Royal Horse Guards ('Blues') on 21 August that year, too late to see active service in the First World War. After the war he served with the Blues, attaining the rank of Captain on 20 October 1924. He left the Army in 1931.〔Gradation List, ''Army List'' January & July 1931.〕
In 1924 Captain Lancaster inherited Kelmarsh Hall〔 and the family mining interests, becoming a director of Bestwood Coal & Iron Co Ltd in Nottinghamshire.〔http://www.dmm.org.uk/whoswho/l0002.htm〕〔http://www.dmm.org.uk/company/b1024.htm〕 After he left the Army, Lancaster moved into coal industry management. In 1936 Bestwood merged with two other Nottinghamshire mining companies to form B.A. Collieries Ltd, of which Lancaster became chairman.〔http://www.dmm.org.uk/company/b1025.htm〕 He also farmed in Northamptonshire and Nottinghamshire. In 1938 Lancaster was elected Conservative Member of Parliament for Fylde in a by-election, and sat in the House of Commons for Fylde and later Fylde South until 1970.
