Sir John Bland, 5th Baronet

Sir John Bland, 5th Baronet (1691 – 9 April 1743) of Kippax Park, Yorkshire and Hulme Hall, Lancashire, was a British landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1713 to 1727.

Bland was the only surviving son of Sir John Bland, 4th Baronet of Kippax Park, Yorkshire and his wife Anne Mosley, daughter of Sir Edward Mosley of Hulme, Lancashire and was baptised on 10 September 1691.

[2] He succeeded his father in the baronetcy on 25 October 1715 and married Frances Finch, daughter of Hon.

Bland was at Utrecht in 1712 whilst his father was organising his son's return in the 1713 general election.

He was a Tory and his reputation as a Jacobite led to his arrest in November 1715 and also to his removal from the Lancashire bench.
