Charles March-Phillipps
Charles March-Phillipps (28 May 1779 – 24 April 1862)[1] was a British Whig[2] politician from Garendon Park in Leicestershire.[3] He sat in the House of Commons in two periods between 1818 and 1837.
He was the eldest son of Thomas March Phillipps (formerly March) of More Critchell, Dorset and educated at Dorchester, Sherborne (until 1791), Eton College (1793–96) and Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge (1800–02). He was a captain in the Leicestershire Yeomanry from 1803 to 1807. He succeeded his father to Garendon Hall, Leicestershire in 1817.
He was elected at the 1818 general election as one of the two Members of Parliament (MPs) for Leicestershire,[4] and held the seat until 1820,[1] when he did not contest the election.[2] He was returned again at the 1831 general election,[3] and held the seat until the 1831 general election, when the county was divided under the Reform Act. He was then elected for the new Northern division of Leicestershire,[5] and held the seat until he stood down at the 1837 general election.[6]
He was appointed High Sheriff of Leicestershire for 1825–26.
He married Harriet, the daughter of John Gustavus Ducarel of Walford, Somerset and had two sons and a daughter. His son Ambrose Charles Lisle March Phillipps De Lisle converted to Roman Catholicism and founded Mount St Bernard Abbey.
