George Repton

George William John Repton (1818 – 30 August 1906)[1] was a British Conservative Party politician[2] who held a seat in the House of Commons for most of the period from 1841 to 1885, first as a Member of Parliament (MP) for St Albans[3] and then for Warwick.

[2] He was educated at University College, Oxford, where he matriculated in 1838,[4] and on 5 September 1848 he married Lady Jane Seymour FitzGerald, the only daughter of the Augustus FitzGerald, 3rd Duke of Leinster, who died on 3 November 1898.

[6][7] However, a Royal Commission found evidence of extensive bribery in elections at the borough, which was disenfranchised in 1852.

[6] He was returned at the 1852 general election as an MP for the borough of Warwick,[8][9] where he was re-elected in 1857, 1859, and 1865, but did not stand in 1868.
