Walter Long JP (ca. 1648 – 16 July 1731) was an English politician. The son of Walter Long (ca. 1623-ca. 1699) and his wife Barbara Brayfield, he was elected Member of Parliament for Calne, Wiltshire in 1701 but lost his seat the following year to Edward Bayntun. He was High Sheriff of Wiltshire 1703-1704.〔The House of Commons, 1690-1715 By David Hayton, Eveline Cruickshanks, Stuart Handley 2002〕 His grandfather John Long (ca. 1585-1636), was disinherited by his father, Sir Walter Long (1565-1610) of South Wraxall and Whaddon, by the contrivances of the latter's second wife Catherine née Thynne (a daughter of the first Sir John Thynne of Longleat) but a compromise later led John to receiving South Wraxall, and his brother the manor of Draycot. South Wraxall eventually passed to Walter Long, who died unmarried in 1731. He is buried at South Wraxall, near Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire. ==Further reading== *(Inquisition Post Mortem: An Adventurous Jaunt Through a 500 Year History of the Courtiers, Clothiers and Parliamentarians of the Long Family of Wiltshire; Cheryl Nicol ) 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「Walter Long (MP 1701–02)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
