Joseph Sandars (MP)

Joseph Sandars (1821 – 14 March 1893)[1] was a British Conservative politician.

Son of Joseph Sandars and Anna McKenzie Richards.

After unsuccessfully contesting Devonport at the 1847 general election,[2] Sandars became Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for Great Yarmouth at a by-election in 1848—caused by the 1847 general election result being declared void due to bribery.
