John Hardres (2 October 1675 – 14 January 1758) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons of England and then the House of Commons of Great Britain in two periods between 1705 and 1722. Hardres was the son of Thomas Hardres of Canterbury. He was educated at Wadham College, Oxford.〔(The Registers of Wadham College )〕 Hardres was elected Member of Parliament (MP) for Canterbury in 1705 and sat to 1708. He was elected again in 1710 and held the seat until 1722. In 1711 Hardres required an act of parliament in order to "sell certain Lands, in the County of Kent, and for settling of others to the Uses therein mentioned".〔(''House of Lords Journal Volume 19: 17 March 1711'', Journal of the House of Lords: volume 19: 1709-1714 (1767-1830), pp. 259-261 Date accessed: 19 November 2010 )〕 Hardres political views were considered ambiguous. He voted against the government, except on the peerage bill which he supported and received money through Sunderland from the King's bounty in 1721. He also appeared to be a Jacobite, and his name was among those sent to the Pretender in 1721 as a likely supporter in the event of a rising. However he retired in 1722 before he had to declare his views.〔(Welsh history review : Cylchgrawn hanes Cymru > Vol. 7, nos. 1-4 - 1974-75 > The House of Commons in the early eighteenth century )〕 Hardres died aged 82 without issue. ==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「John Hardres」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
