William E. English

William Eastin English (November 3, 1850 – April 29, 1926) was an American attorney and politician, a U.S. Representative from Indiana.

He was the son of vice-presidential candidate and businessman William Hayden English, and his wife Emma Mardulia Jackson.

He was given a middle name after his maternal grandmother Mahala Eastin of Kentucky, whose immigrant ancestor was said to be a French Huguenot, D'Estaing, from southwestern France.

His father got involved in politics and business and finally accumulated substantial real estate holdings.
