Tom Parry (politician)

Thomas Henry Parry, DSO, DL (1881 – 8 October 1939) was a Welsh Liberal Party politician, lawyer and soldier.

It was reported at the time Parry was adopted as the Liberal candidate for the 1913 Flint Boroughs by-election that he was aged 32 years.

[9] He ended up lieutenant-colonel commanding the 5/6 Royal Welch Fusiliers and was Military Member of the Flintshire Territorial Force Association.

[10] Parry entered Parliament at a by-election in January 1913 following the death of the sitting Liberal member for Flint Boroughs, James Woolley Summers.

[13] He was unable to campaign in Flintshire at the 1924 general election through illness brought on as a result of his war wounds[14] and the seat passed into Conservative hands.
