Owen Buckingham (16 December 1674 – 5 March 1720) of Moulsford, Berkshire, was a British politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1708 and 1720. He died in a drunken fight with a friend. Buckingham was the eldest surviving son of Sir Owen Buckingham of Moulsford and of St. Mildred’s, Bread Street, London, former Lord Mayor of London and Elizabeth, the first of his six wives.[1] Buckingham was returned as Member of Parliament (MP) for Reading in succession to his father at the 1708 British general election. He was returned again at the 1710 British general election but was defeated at the 1713 British general election.[1] Buckingham was returned for Reading at a by-election on 6 June 1716. He was appointed a Commissioner for victualling the Navy in 1717 and was returned without opposition at the ensuing by-election. He voted with the Administration on the repeal of the Occasional Conformity and Schism Acts and on the peerage bill in 1719.[2] On 5 March 1720 Buckingham went to a birthday celebration at Windsor given by a friend, William Aldworth. They both became intoxicated and hots words were exchanged, whereupon they went outside and had a fight in the dark. Buckingham received a fatal wound, but took the blame upon himself with his dying breath. He was unmarried.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web | first = Stuart | last = Handley | title = BUCKINGHAM, Owen (1674-1720), of Moulsford, Berks. and the Gatehouse, Reading Abbey | url = http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1690-1715/member/buckingham-owen-1674-1720 | work = The History of Parliament: the House of Commons 1690-1715 | editor1 = D.
