Sir Herbert Lloyd Watkin Williams-Wynn, 7th Baronet, {{postnominals|country=GBR|size=100%|CB}} (6 June 1860 – 24 May 1944) was a Welsh politician.

Career

Williams-Wynn succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his uncle and father-in-law, Sir Watkin Williams-Wynn, 6th Baronet in May 1885.

He was Member of Parliament (MP) for Denbighshire from May to November 1885, when the constituency was abolished. He lost the subsequent election for the new East Denbighshire constituency, and tried unsuccessfully to gain the seat in the following two elections in 1886 (when he lost by only 0,4 percent) and 1892. He was High Sheriff of Denbighshire for 1890, and served as Lord Lieutenant of Montgomeryshire from 1891 until 1944.

During the Second Boer War, he was instrumental in raising four companies of Imperial Yeomanry for service in South Africa, attached to the Montgomeryshire Yeomanry.[1] For this was appointed Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB) in the 1902 Coronation Honours.[2][3]

During World War I he established a munitions factory on the estate.

Family

Williams-Wynn married his cousin Louisa Alexandra Williams-Wynn (1864–1911), daughter of Sir Watkin Williams-Wynn, 6th Baronet and the sole heiress of the Wynnstay estate.

He was succeeded by his son, Sir Watkin Williams-Wynn, 8th Baronet.
