James Cropper (1823 – 16 October 1900) was an English Liberal politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1880 to 1885. Cropper was the son of James Cropper of Dingle Bank Liverpool, and his wife Ann Wakefield, daughter of James Wakefield of Kendal. He was in business as a paper maker. He was a J.P. and Deputy Lieutenant for Westmorland and was High Sheriff of Westmorland in 1875.〔(Debretts House of Commons and the Judicial Bench 1881 )〕 Cropper was elected Member of Parliament for Kendal at a by-election in December 1880. He held the seat until the 1885 general election, when the parliamentary borough of Kendal was abolished, and the name transferred to a new division of the county of Westmorland. In the enlarged constituency, Cropper was defeated by the Earl of Bective, a Conservative who had previously been one of the two MPs for the undivided Westmorland constituency. Cropper married Fanny Alison Wakefield in 1845, and they were the parents of ten children. Cropper died at the age of 77. ==References== 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「James Cropper (politician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
