{{Use dmy dates|date=February 2017}}{{Use British English|date=February 2017}}Richard Boyle, 4th Earl of Shannon (12 May 1809 – 1 August 1868), styled Viscount Boyle until 1842, was a British politician of the Whig party. He served as Member of Parliament for Cork County from 1830 to 1832.[1][2]

Background

Boyle was the son of Henry Boyle, 3rd Earl of Shannon and his wife, Sarah, daughter of John Hyde of Castle Hyde[1][2] and his wife, Sarah Burton.[3] Hyde was a descendant of the Hyde family of Denchworth in Berkshire (now Oxfordshire).

Political career

Boyle was elected a Member of Parliament in the United Kingdom general election, 1830 and re-elected in the United Kingdom general election, 1831.[4] The Reform Act 1832 increased the number of individuals entitled to vote, increasing the size of electorate by 50–80%, and allowing a total of 653,000 adult males (around one in five) to vote, in a population of some 14 million.[5] In the United Kingdom general election, 1832 which followed, Cork County was allowed to elect two Members of Parliament instead of one. Richard failed to be re-elected, his seat taken by Feargus O'Connor, a leader of the Chartist movement, and Garrett Standish Barry.[4] Barry was a Roman Catholic, the first one elected to Parliament following the Catholic Relief Act 1829.[6] On 22 April 1842, his father died and Boyle succeeded him. He held no other political office until his death.[1][2]

Family

On 28 May 1832, Lord Shannon married Emily Henrietta Seymour in London. She was a daughter of Lord George Seymour-Conway and Isabella Hamilton.[7] His father-in-law was a son of Francis Seymour-Conway, 1st Marquess of Hertford and his wife Lady Isabella Fitzroy.[8] His mother-in-law was a daughter of the Reverend George Hamilton, Canon of Windsor (1718–1787) and his wife Elizabeth Onslow.[9]

They had two sons:[7]

  • Henry Bentinck Boyle, 5th Earl of Shannon (22 November 1833 – 8 February 1890).
  • Frederick James Boyle (16 September 1835 – 10 October 1861).
