William Smith, 3rd Viscount Hambleden
William Henry Smith, 3rd Viscount Hambleden (25 July 1903 – 31 March 1948), was a British peer and descendant of the founders of stationery group W H Smith.
==Early life and career==
Lord Hambleden was the 2nd child and eldest son of Frederick Smith and Esther Georgiana Caroline ''nee'' Gore (1870–1955), a daughter of Arthur Gore, 5th Earl of Arran.〔Lundy, Darryl. ("William Frederick Danvers Smith, 2nd Viscount Hambleden" ), The Peerage, p. 1922, accessed 10 October 2012〕 He was educated at Eton College and New College, Oxford.
After his father's death in 1928, the family business, W H Smith, was reconstituted as a limited company, in which Smith owned all the ordinary shares〔(WH Smith: History 1901-1989 )〕 and was chairman.〔Lundy, Darryl. ("William Henry Smith, 3rd Viscount Hambleden" ), The Peerage, p. 2012, accessed 10 October 2012〕 On his death in 1948, the death duties were so severe that a public holding company had to be formed and shares sold to W H Smith staff and the public.〔 His younger brother, David John Smith, remained chairman until 1972, but the Smith family's control slipped away, and the last family member left the board in 1996.〔(WH Smith: History 1990 – present )〕
