Swire Smith
Sir Swire Smith (4 March 1842 – 16 March 1918) was an English woollen manufacturer, educationalist and Liberal Party politician. In many ways he was typical of the public-spirited, self-made Victorian. Of nonconformist lineage, he believed in social and intellectual improvement, the virtues of hard work and thrift and the role of the Liberal Party in the encouragement and promotion of this ethic. ==Family and education== Swire Smith was born in Keighley in the West Riding of Yorkshire, the eldest son of George Smith and his wife Mary (née Swire).〔''Who was Who'', OUP 2007〕 He was educated at the local National School in Keighley and at Wesley College, Sheffield.〔Asa Briggs, ''Sir Swire Smith'' in ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', OUP 2004-09〕 He never married.〔Asa Briggs, ''Serious Pursuits: Communications and Education, The Collected Essays of Asa Briggs, Volume 3''; Harvester Wheatsheaf, 1991 p419〕
