Sir James Bourne, 1st Baronet
Sir James Bourne, 1st Baronet DL, JP, CB (8 October 1812 – 14 March 1882) was an English Conservative Party politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1865 to 1880.
Bourne was the son of Peter Bourne of Hackinsall, Lancashire and of Heathfield, Liverpool and his wife Margaret Drinkwater, daughter of James Drinkwater of Bent, Lancashire. He was educated at Shrewsbury School. He was a Deputy Lieutenant and Justice of the Peace for Lancashire. He was also Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant of the Royal Lancashire Militia Artillery, and Colonel of the 4th Brigade Lancashire Artillery Volunteers[1]
Bourne stood for parliament unsuccessfully at Wexford Borough in 1841. At the 1865 general election Bourne was elected as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Evesham. He held the seat until 1880.[2] He was appointed Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB) in 1861 and made a baronet, of Hackinsall Hall, in the parish of Stalmine, and of Heathfield, in the parish of Childwell, both in the County Palatine of Lancaster, on 10 May 1880.[3]
Bourne married in 1841 Sarah Harriet Dyson, daughter of Thomas Fournis Dyson of Willow Hall, Yorkshire, and of Everton, near Liverpool. They had children. He died at the age of 69 and his son succeeded him briefly in the baronetcy.
