Thomas Owen Wethered
Thomas Owen Wethered (26 November 1832 - 22 February 1921) was an English Conservative politician and brewer who sat in the House of Commons from 1868 to 1880.
==Family background and early life==
Wethered was the eldest son of Owen Wethered of Great Marlow and his wife Anne Peel, a daughter of the Rev. Giles Haworth Peel, of the Grotto, Basildon, Berkshire. His grandfather, who died in 1854, had been vicar of Ince in Cheshire and was the son of Jonathan Peel, of Accrington, a younger brother of Sir Robert Peel, 1st Baronet, so was a first cousin of the British Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel.〔''The Annual Register'', December 1854, (p. 378 ) online〕 His father was said to be "descended from the well-known family of that name, so long in residence at Ashlyns, Great Berkhamsted," and first recorded there in 1431.〔Brandon Barringer, L. Wethered Barroll, ''The Wethered Book'' (1967), p. 1〕 They had been brewers and maltsters at Marlow since the middle of the 18th century.〔Derek Ayshford, ''(Great Marlow Breweries )'' online at bucksfhs.org.uk〕 The young Wethered was educated at Eton College and Christ Church, Oxford, where he was a contemporary of Lewis Carroll. In the author's diaries a note reading "Harvey sang too, and Wethered" refers either to him or to his younger brother Owen Peel Wethered (1837-1908).〔Edward Wakeling (ed.), ''Lewis Carroll's diaries: the private journals of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson'' 1995), p. 70〕
In 1849, his grandfather Thomas Wethered died at the age of 88, leaving a fortune of £100,000 and a brewery producing 24,500 barrels of beer a year which owned a hundred public houses in Buckinghamshire.〔 One Marlow pub called ''The Two Brewers'' had a portrait on one side of its sign of an 18th-century Thomas Wethered, founder of the firm, with the member of parliament and brewer Samuel Whitbread on the other side.〔Leigh Hatts, ''The Thames Path'' (2005), p. 105〕
