Sir Henry Bunbury, 3rd Baronet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Henry Bunbury, 3rd Baronet (29 November 1676 – 12 February 1733) of Stanney Hall, Cheshire was a British Tory politician who sat in the English and British House of Commons for 27 years from 1700 to 1727. At the time of the Hanoverian Succession in 1714 he was a Hanoverian Tory, but later offered support to the Jacobites.
Bunbury was the son of Sir Henry Bunbury, 2nd Baronet and his wife Mary Eyton, daughter of Sir Kenrick Eyton. In 1687, aged only eleven, he succeeded his father as baronet.[1] Bunbury was educated at St Catharine's College, Cambridge.[2] On 15 May 1699, he married Susannah Hanmer, only surviving daughter of William Hanmer (the second son of Sir Thomas Hanmer, 2nd Baronet), and had by her four sons and five daughters.[1]
