  1. References

Edward Richard Littleton, 2nd Baron Hatherton {{post-nominals|country=GBR|CB}} (31 December 1815 – 2 April 1888) was a British peer and Liberal Member of Parliament from the extended Littleton/Lyttelton family.[1]

Hatherton was the son of Edward John Littleton, 1st Baron Hatherton, and Hyacinthe Mary Wellesley, eldest illegitimate daughter of Richard Wellesley, 1st Marquess Wellesley. He was educated at Eton College.[2]

He was elected to the House of Commons for Walsall in 1847, a seat he held until 1852. He then represented Staffordshire Southern from 1853 until 1857.[1] In 1863 he succeeded his father as second Baron Hatherton and entered the House of Lords. He was not so active a politician as his father and Hansard records only two interventions in Parliament - one in the Commons, and one in the Lords.[3]

He was also colonel of the (King's Own) 2nd Stafford Militia. He was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath in the 1881 Birthday Honours.[4]

Lord Hatherton married Lady Margaret Percy, second daughter of George Percy, 5th Duke of Northumberland, in 1841. They had five sons:[2]

  • Hon. Edward George Percy {{post-nominals|country=GBR|CMG}} (born 15 August 1842)
  • Hon. Algernon Charles, R.N. (born 1843), married Lady Margaret Needham, daughter of Francis Needham, 2nd Earl of Kilmorey
  • Hon. Henry Stuart (born 1844)
  • Hon. William Francis {{post-nominals|country=GBR|CMG}} (born 1847)
  • Rev. The Hon. Cecil James (born 1850) married Katherine, daughter of Sir Charles Robert Rowley, 4th Baronet

He died in April 1888 in London, aged 72, and was succeeded in the barony by his eldest son Edward.[1] Lady Hatherton died in 1897.
