Maurice Egerton (4 August 1874 – 30 January 1958) was the fourth Baron Egerton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Maurice Egerton, 4th Baron Egerton of Tatton )〕 He was a member of the Egerton family and was the only son of Alan de Tatton Egerton, 3rd Baron Egerton and his wife Lady Anna Louisa. Maurice was known as an aviation and motor car enthusiast, a friend to the Wright brothers.〔 He served as a Lieutenant in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve during the First World War after which he was granted some land in Ngata area near Nakuru in Kenya under the Soldier Settlement Scheme. He later purchased a further 21,000 acres around the same area from Lord Delamere. On this land, he founded a school in 1939 named Egerton Farm School (now Egerton University). The school was meant to prepare white European youth for careers in agriculture. Maurice did not marry and on his death in 1958 the barony became extinct, and Tatton Park was given to the National Trust.〔 ==References==
