Samuel Shepheard (died 1748)

Samuel Shepheard (1677–1748), of Exning, Suffolk, near Newmarket, Cambridgeshire, was an English Tory politician who sat in the English House of Commons in 1701 and in the British House of Commons almost continually for forty years from 1708 to 1748.

When his unmarried elder brother Francis died in 1739, he inherited his estate,[1] including Exning House.

He did not stand at Cambridge in 1722, but instead was elected MP for Cambridgeshire at a by-election on 19 November 1724.

[3] Shepheard died of an apoplectic stroke at Hampton Court on his way back from Bath on 24 April 1748.
