Captain Edward Charles Ellice (1 January 1858 – 21 February 1934)[1] was Liberal MP for St Andrews Burghs.

Background

He was the son of Robert Ellice (1816–1858) and Eglantine "Tina" Balfour (1816–1907), the grandson of Robert Ellice and Eliza Courtney, a grandnephew of Edward Ellice, and a cousin and the heir of the latter's son, heir and namesake, Edward Ellice, who was a previous MP for the constituency.

He married Margaret Georgiana Thomas (1865–1929), daughter of cricketer Freeman Thomas and sister of Major Freeman Freeman-Thomas, 1st Marquess of Willingdon, on 11 April 1889. They had ten children:

  • Marion Ellice (8 October 1890)
  • Edward Ellice (6 December 1891-about 1893)
  • Isobel Ellice (18 November 1892)
  • Alexander Ellice (19 November 1894-16 October 1916) died in World War I, age 21
  • Margaret Ellice (19 March 1896)
  • Andrew Robert Ellice (13 October 1897-28 September 1916) died in World War I, age 18
  • William Ellice (19 December 1898-26 November 1914) died in World War I when an internal explosion sank {{HMS|Bulwark|1899|6}}, age 15
  • Eglantine Ellice (9 January 1900–1989)
  • Russell Ellice (14 November 1902–1989)
  • Charles Ellice (7 March 1905)

He was deputy-director of the Invergarry and Fort Augustus Railway.

Military career

Ellice was commissioned in the Grenadier Guards in October 1877, and promoted to captain on 5 August 1886. Following the outbreak of the Second Boer War in late 1899, he joined Lord Lovat′s Corps as a captain of mounted infantry on 21 February 1900.[2] The corps was raised by Simon Fraser, 14th Lord Lovat and served in South Africa through the war.

Political career

Ellice was elected at the St Andrews Burghs by-election, 1903, gaining the seat from the Liberal Unionists. He sought re-election at the 1906 General Election but was narrowly defeated.[3]
