Cornthwaite Hector (5 November 1773 – 14 February 1842) was the Radical Member of Parliament for Petersfield on two occasions during the 19th-century.[1]
Born at Portsmouth, England, on 5 November 1773, Hector, a banker and brewer, formerly a steward to the Jolliffe family for 30 years,[2][3] was first elected Member of Parliament for Petersfield in 1835.[4][5] At the 1837 election, a petition was lodged against the winner, William Jolliffe, and his election declared void. After scrutiny of the ballots, Hector was declared elected in 1838.[6]
He died at his home Stodham House, Petersfield.[2] His grandson, Cornthwaite John Hector, was one of the founders of Melbourne, Florida,[7] and its first postmaster.[8]
