Hugh Barlow (1729 – 23 January 1809) was a British politician who sat in the House of Commons for 24 years from 1774 to 1809.
He was on poor terms with Sir Hugh's widow and his opposition politics were against the family's interest.
He was a childless widower and his main object was to secure the Pembrokeshire seat for his infant ward, Hugh Owen in the future.
He resided seven months a year in Pembrokeshire and promoted local bills on roads and fisheries which ensured his popularity there.
[2] When he died on 23 January 1809, Barlow had not been able to secure the Pembrokeshire seat for his ward Sir Hugh Owen but was briefly succeeded by him at the Pembroke constituency.
