David Pugh (14 August 1789 – 20 April 1861) was a wealthy tea trader, a Welsh landowner and Conservative Party politician who sat in the House of Commons in 1832, and again between 1847 and 1861. ==Career== Pugh was Captain in the Montgomeryshire Volunteer Cavalry from 10 December 1819 to 1828, when the regiment was disbanded. On the embodiment of the Montgomeryshire Yeomanry Cavalry in 1831, he was appointed Major; he resigned in 1844. He was Recorder of Welshpool. He was High Sheriff of Montgomeryshire in 1823, and Deputy Lieutenant of Montgomeryshire. He was elected M.P. for the Montgomery Boroughs in 1832, but unseated on petition the next year. In 1847 he was elected, and there being a double return, his opponent's (Hon. Hugh Cholmondeley who had been the sitting member since 1841) return was annulled, 14 February 1848. In 1852, 1857, and 1859 Mr. Pugh was again successively returned. His death in 1861 triggered a by-election. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Pugh (1789–1861)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
