In 1945 he stood for parliament at the general election for the Conservative Party in Hull East. He came second in a three-way contest. In 1946, he bought the Old Rectory at Winestead and employed Francis Johnson to restore it. He filled the Rectory with fittings from demolished Georgian buildings and began collecting memorabilia of the Maister family.[4] He was Lord Mayor of Hull in 1970–71 and made Lord Lieutenant of Humberside in 1980.[5] His papers at Hull University include circa 3000 items from the fourteenth century onward, including title deeds, settlements, rentals, enclosure acts, maps and plans and house sale catalogues for East Yorkshire including manorial records 1647–1927 for Elstronwick.[6] Personal papers include over 500 letters of his parents, Alexander Alec-Smith and Adelaide Alec-Smith (née Horsley), largely sent during the First World War, and about 300 letters Rupert Alec-Smith sent during the Second World War. His journals and diaries survive for 1937–1970 as does his correspondence with good friend John Betjeman from 1954 to 1973.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Death of Founder Rupert Alec-Smith|url=http://www.gsey.org.uk/anniversary/323/death-of-founder-rupert-alec-smith|website=Georgian Society for East Yorkshire|accessdate=5 October 2016}} {{S-start}}{{S-hon}}{{Succession box | before=The Earl of Halifax | title=Lord Lieutenant of Humberside | years=1980–1983 | after=Richard Anthony Bethell}}{{S-end}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Alec-Smith, Rupert Alexander}}{{England-historian-stub}}{{England-mayor-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|title=History of the society|url=http://www.gsey.org.uk/page/199/history-of-the-society|website=Georgian Society for East Yorkshire|accessdate=5 October 2016}} 3. ^{{cite book|last1=Simon Sykes|first1=Christopher|title=The big house; the story of the country house and it's family|date=2004|publisher=Harper Collins|location=London|isbn=9780007107094|page=334}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=New chapter at toad hall|url=http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/lifestyle/homes/new-chapter-at-toad-hall-1-4999080|accessdate=5 October 2016|work=The Yorkshire Post|date=8 October 2012}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Lord Mandelson appointed to High Steward of Hull post|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-humber-22625513|accessdate=5 October 2016|work=BBC News|date=23 May 2013}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|title=Papers of Rupert Alec-Smith|url=https://www.archivesportaleurope.net/ead-display/-/ead/pl/aicode/GB-50/type/fa/id/GB+050+U+DAS|website=Archives Portal Europe|publisher=Hull University Archives at Hull History Centre|accessdate=5 October 2016}} 8 : 1913 births|1983 deaths|British Army personnel of World War II|Green Howards officers|Vice-Lieutenants of Humberside|Mayors of Kingston upon Hull|Conservative Party (UK) politicians|20th-century English historians |
