Sir Justinian Isham, 5th Baronet

Sir Justinian Isham, 5th Baronet (20 July 1687 – 5 March 1737), of Lamport, Northamptonshire was a British Tory politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1730 to 1734.

After the Tory victory at the 1710 British general election, he was given a place as Commissioner of leather duties and land taxes worth £500 a year in 1711, which he lost when the Whigs returned to power in 1714.

In 1719 he went to Italy while the Pretender was there and received letters from his father warning him to take care how he behaved because there were court spies there.

[1] Isham died without issue, suddenly, on 5 March 1737, probably from a stroke or heart attack, and was buried in the Church of All Saints, Lamport with his monument being sculpted by Peter Scheemakers.

[2] He was succeeded as baronet by his younger brother Edmund Isham, who also followed him as the Northamptonshire representative to Parliament.
