Brent Spencer Follett QC (1810 – 23 January 1887)[1] was a British Conservative politician and barrister. Born at Topham, he was a younger son of Benjamin Follett and his wife Ann Webb, daughter of John Webb.[1] His older brother was William Webb Follett (1796-1845), MP and Solicitor General.[1] Follett was called to the bar by Lincoln's Inn in 1833. He became a Queen's Counsel in July 1851 and a bencher four months later.[4] In 1852, he entered the British House of Commons for Bridgwater, representing the constituency as Member of Parliament (MP) until 1857.[2] With the Land Registry Act 1862, Follett became the first Chief Land Registrar of the new created HM Land Registry, a post he held until his death in 1887.[3] On 14 October 1848 at Stockport, he married Caroline Amelia Skirrow, youngest daughter of Walter Skirrow.[4] They had two sons.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite book | last = Dod | first = Charles R. | authorlink = Charles Dod | edition = 2nd | title = The Parliamentary Companion | year = 1852 | publisher = Whitaker and Co. | location = London | pages = 144 }} 2. ^1 {{cite web | url = http://www.leighrayment.com/commons/Bcommons5.htm | title = Leigh Rayment - British House of Commons, Bridgwater | accessdate = 9 June 2009 }} 3. ^{{cite web | url = http://www1.landregistry.gov.uk/assets/library/documents/bhist-lr.pdf | format = PDF | title = HM Land Registry, Official Website - History | accessdate = 9 June 2009 }} 4. ^{{cite book | last = Sylvanus | first = Urban | title = The Gentleman's Magazine | location = London | publisher = John Bowyer Nichols and Son | year = 1848 | pages = 80 }} 5. ^1 {{cite web | url= http://www.thepeerage.com/p12640.htm#i126393| title= ThePeerage - Brent Spencer Follett | accessdate= 25 December 2006}} External links
