William Thomas Mansfield (1884 – 19 March 1939) was a British politician and trade unionist.
Born in Staithes in the North Riding of Yorkshire,[1] Mansfield began working at the Grinkle Mines when he was thirteen years old.
He stood again in 1929 and won the seat, but lost it at the 1931 general election, and failed to win it back in 1935.
[1] In 1934, Mansfield took the Cleveland Miners and Quarrymen's Association out of the MFGB, instead merging into the National Union of General and Municipal Workers (NUGMW).
It remained a distinct section of the NUGMW for two years, with Mansfield continuing as general secretary, after which he became an organiser for the union until his death in 1939.
