Charles Barry Baldwin (c. 1789 – 13 April 1859)[1] was a British Conservative and Tory politician.
He married Frances Lydia Boyd, daughter of Walter Boyd and Harriet Anne née Goddard, in 1823, and they had one son and two daughters: Charles Edward Barry (born 1824); Frances Elizabeth (1826–1891); and Mary Georgiana (c. 1837–1898).
During this period of his parliamentary career, he was listed by ministers as a 'friend', although he voted against the Reform Act 1832.
[3] He stood again for the seat at a by-election in 1839–caused by the resignation of Jasper Parrott–and secured the same number of votes as his only rival William Blount, resulting in a double return.
In the resulting by-election, Baldwin was again elected, and then held the seat as a 'free trade Conservative' until 1852 when he was defeated.
