Sir Harry Foley Vernon, 1st Baronet (11 April 1834 â 1 February 1920) was a British Liberal Party politician.
Born in 1834, Vernon was the son of Thomas Taylor and Jessie Anna Letitia (née Foley) Vernon.
Vernon was elected Liberal MP for East Worcestershire at a by-election in 1861âÂÂcaused by the death of John Hodgetts-FoleyâÂÂand held the seat until 1868 when he did not seek re-election.
Vernon was created a Baronet of Hanbury Hall in 1885, in recognition of the way he managed his estate during the Great Depression of British Agriculture.
In 1861, he married Lady Georgina Sophia Baillie-Hamilton, daughter of George and Georgina (née Markham) Baillie-Hamilton and they had at least three children: Auda Letitia (1862âÂÂ1957); Bowater George Hamilton (1865âÂÂ1940); and Herbert Edward (1867âÂÂ1902).
Upon his death in 1920, his son, Bowater George Hamilton Vernon, succeeded to the title, after which it became extinct.
