Charles Aldworth

Charles Aldworth (1677 - 21 September 1714) was an English politician, MP for New Windsor from 1712 to 1714.

In 1700 Charles succeeded his father, who had secured a long lease on Frogmore, but was forced to move out with his two sisters in 1709.

[2] Aldworth was educated at King's College, Cambridge, matriculating there in 1693,[3] after which he studied law at the Inner Temple, where he was called to the bar in 1703.

[4] He sat as MP until his 1714 death in a duel: Colonel Chudleigh, a whig army officer, accused Aldworth of Jacobitism and profited from Aldworth's physical disability by shooting him dead in the duel which followed.
