Edward Hulton

Sir Edward Hulton, 1st Baronet (3 March 1869 – 23 May 1925) was a British newspaper proprietor and thoroughbred racehorse owner.

[1] In 1921, he was awarded a baronetcy, of Downside in the parish of Leatherhead in Surrey, for public services during World War I,[2][3][4] which became extinct on his death in 1925.

[1][7] He was raised as a Roman Catholic in Whalley Range, Manchester and attended St Bede's Commercial College from 1878–85.

[1][26] Warris was a music hall artist, actress and singer, née Fanny Elizabeth Warriss or Wariss, also known by the stage name Millie Lindon, and a cousin of the Rudge Sisters.

As Edward George Warris was born before his parents were married, he did not inherit the Hulton baronetcy which became extinct on his father's death in 1925.

[26][33][34][35] Hulton died on 23 May 1925 at the age of 56 after a prolonged illness in Downside, and is buried in Putney Vale Cemetery in southwest London.
