Urban H. Broughton : ウィキペディア英語版 | Urban H. Broughton Urban Hanlon Broughton (12 April 1857 – 30 January 1929) was an English civil engineer, railroad and mining executive, and Conservative Party Member of Parliament. In 1929, he was in line for elevation to the peerage, but he died in January before the process was finalized. However, his wife, Cara Leland (née Rogers) Broughton became the first Lady Fairhaven, and their eldest son the first Baron Fairhaven. == Youth, education, early career==
Born in England, Urban Broughton studied civil engineering at the University of London. Upon graduation, he worked on a variety of projects including railways, drainage systems, and dock works. He became involved with the ''Shone sewer system'', a pneumatic-pump-based system invented by Isaac Shone and first installed in the British Houses of Parliament. This work led him to the United States around 1887.
