Sir Geoffrey Ernest Tritton, 3rd Baronet

Major Sir Geoffrey Ernest Tritton CBE DL (3 November 1900 – 15 November 1976), was a British businessman, soldier and Liberal Party politician, who later joined the Conservative party.

[2] Tritton was a partner in a firm of discount brokers[3] and achieved the rank of Major as an officer in the Territorial Army Rifle Brigade.

[4] Tritton was Liberal candidate for the Henley division of Oxfordshire at the 1929 General Election.

Tritton's prospects of winning were set back when the Labour Party, who had not run a candidate in either 1923 or 1924, decided to intervene.

He did not stand for parliament again,[5] but during the 1950s served as a member of Wiltshire County Council.
