John Bond (1678–1744)

John Bond (5 April 1678 – 19 June 1744), of Tyneham in Dorset, was an English lawyer and a politician who sat in the House of Commons, from 1721 to 1744.

[2] Bond was returned as a stop-gap Member of Parliament for Corfe Castle at a by-election on 25 February 1721, when his brother was the borough's other MP.

In 1732, a report of a House of Commons committee named him as being involved with his brother in the fraudulent sale of the forfeited Derwentwater estates in 1723, but no action was taken[citation needed].

[2] Their son, John (1717–1784), was also an MP and, as his uncle's heir, became head of the family.
