Sir John Blundell Maple, 1st Baronet

Sir John Blundell Maple, 1st Baronet (1 March 1845 – 24 November 1903) was an English business magnate. He was educated at King's College London.
==Business and politics==
His father, John Maple, had a small furniture shop in Tottenham Court Road, London, and his business began to develop about the time that his son entered it. John Junior soon took over the practical management of the company, and expanded it considerably. The firm became a limited liability company with a capital of two million pounds in 1890, with Maple as chairman. He entered Parliament as Conservative member for Dulwich in 1887, serving until his death in 1903, was knighted in 1892, and was made a baronet in 1897. He was the developer of the Great Central Hotel at Marylebone station, which opened in 1899. In Parliament, he sponsored bills in 1891 and 1893 to encourage cheaper train fares for working men, which would have favoured the many clerks in his constituency who commuted to the City.〔Alex Windscheffel, Popular Conservatism in Imperial London, 1868-1906 (Boydell & Brewer Ltd, 2007) pages 124-125.〕
He was the owner of Childwick Bury Stud, a large Thoroughbred Horse breeding operation built on his estate. Appearing at first under the name of "Mr. Childwick," from 1885 onwards he won many important races including two of the British Classics. His public benefactions included a hospital and a recreation ground to the city of St Albans, near which his residence, Childwick Bury Manor, was situated, and the rebuilding, at a cost of more than £50,000, of University College Hospital, London.
Sir John Maple left a fortune of £2,153,000 at his death in 1903.〔For the amount of Maple's fortune, See P. A. Howell, online version of ('Weigall, Sir William Ernest George Archibald (1874–1952)' ), ''Australian Dictionary of Biography'', Volume 12, Melbourne University Press, 1990, p. 436. Retrieved 1 August 2009〕
Maple's wife was Emily Harriet Merryweather.
