Philip Oxenden Papillon (1 August 1826 – 16 August 1899)[1] was a British Conservative politician.
He was the son of Thomas Papillon of Acrise and his wife Frances Mary Oxenden, daughter of Sir Henry Oxenden, 7th Baronet.[2] He was educated at Rugby School from 1841, and matriculated at University College, Oxford in 1844, graduating B.A. in 1848 and M.A. in 1851.[3][4] He was called to the bar at the Inner Temple in 1852.[5]
Papillon was elected Conservative MP for Colchester at the 1859 general election and held the seat until 1865 when he stood for re-election but was defeated.[6]
