Colonel Herbert Merton Jessel, 1st Baron Jessel CB, CMG, TD, DL, JP (27 October 1866 – 1 November 1950), known as Sir Herbert Jessel, Bt, between 1917 and 1924, was a British soldier and Liberal Unionist, later Conservative politician. ==Biography== Jessel was the younger son of Sir George Jessel, Solicitor-General and Master of the Rolls, by Amelia Moses, daughter of Joseph Moses. Sir Charles Jessel, 1st Baronet, of Ladham House, was his elder brother (see Jessel Baronets). He was educated at Rugby and New College, Oxford.〔(thepeerage.com Herbert Merton Jessel, 1st Baron Jessel )〕 Jessel was returned to Parliament as a Liberal Unionist for St Pancras South in an 1896 by-election (succeeding his deceased father-in-law Sir Julian Goldsmid). He also served as the third Mayor of Westminster in 1902-03. He lost his Parliamentary seat at the Liberal landslide at the 1906 general election but regained the seat as a Conservative in the January 1910 general election. The constituency was abolished in 1918 and Jessel never returned to the House of Commons. He was the Conservative candidate for the Westminster St George's by-election, 1921. He was created a Baronet, of Westminster, in 1917, made a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1918 and an officer of the Order of Leopold and Companion of the Order of the Bath in 1919. In 1924 he was elevated to the peerage as Baron Jessel, of Westminster in the County of London. Lord Jessel married Maud Goldsmid, daughter of Sir Julian Goldsmid, 3rd Baronet, in 1894. They had several children. Lord Jessel died in November 1950, aged 84, and was succeeded by his only son, Edward. Lady Jessel died in October 1965.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Herbert Jessel, 1st Baron Jessel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
