Sir Henry Mather Jackson, 2nd Baronet, KC, DL (23 July 1831 – 8 March 1881) was a British Liberal Party politician who served as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Coventry from 1867 to 1868, and from 1874 to 1881, when he became a High Court judge. ==Early life== Jackson was the eldest son of the Sir William Jackson, 1st Baronet (1805–1876) of Birkenhead, a businessman who made his first fortune from palm oil imports, a second fortune in property development, before becoming an industrialist and railway entrepreneur and later a Liberal MP. His mother was Elizabeth ''née'' Hughes, from Liverpool.〔 He was educated at Harrow and at Trinity College, Oxford, where he graduated in 1853 with a B.A. in Classics.〔 He was called to the bar in 1855 at Lincoln's Inn,〔 and took silk in 1873. His address was listed in 1881 as Llantilio Court, Abergavenny, Monmouthshire.〔 The house was located at Llantilio Crossenny, about six miles east of Abergavenny. Jackson had bought it in 1873 from Henry Morgan-Clifford, the former MP for Hereford, and after his death it remained the home of his son Sir Henry Mather Jackson, 3rd Baronet. The house was demolished in 1930, leaving only the foundations and undercroft, although the landscaped park remains. Llantilio Court and the baronetcy were inherited by his son, the 3rd Baronet, who was appointed in 1916 to a tribunal to consider appeals in Monmouthshire against conscription under the Military Service Act 1916. As Chairman of the Monmouthshire Appeals Tribunal, the third baronet was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in June 1918, for "services in connection with the war".〔 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「Sir Henry Jackson, 2nd Baronet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
