Simon Norton (MP)
Simon Norton (1578–1641) was an English dyer and politician who was active in local government in Coventry and sat in the House of Commons from 1640 to 1641.
Norton was the son of John Norton of Allesley, Warwickshire.〔(John Burke, John Bernard Burke ''A genealogical and heraldic history of the extinct and dormant baronetcies'' )〕 He became a dyer and was active on the council at Coventry. He was mayor of Coventry in 1633.〔(Historic Coventry - List of Mayors )〕
In April 1640, Norton was elected Member of Parliament for Coventry in the Short Parliament. His nephew and fellow MP William Jesson was also a dyer and together they helped defeat the aims of a Coventry weaver who petitioned Parliament against cloth from Gloucestershire being brought into the city for dying. Norton was elected MP for Coventry to the Long Parliament in November 1640 but died in 1641.〔( ''The City of Coventry: Parliamentary representation'', A History of the County of Warwick: Volume 8: The City of Coventry and Borough of Warwick (1969) ), pp. 248-255. Date accessed: 7 February 2011〕
Norton married Prudence Jesson, daughter of John Jesson, in 1608. Their son Thomas was created a baronet.〔
