Sir Charles Turner, 1st Baronet (1666 – 24 November 1738) of Warham, Norfolk was a British lawyer and politician who sat in the House of Commons for 43 years from 1695 to 1738.

Turner was baptized on 11 June 1666, the son of William Turner, attorney-at-law of North Elmham, Norfolk, and his wife Anne Spooner, daughter of John Spooner. He was educated at Scarning and Norwich and was admitted at Caius College, Cambridge in 1681. He was also admitted at Middle Temple in 1684 and became a country attorney like his father. His fortunes were boosted by the improving success of his own family and his influential connections, which included the Walpole family. In April 1689, he married Mary Walpole, daughter of Robert Walpole. He was knighted on 22 March 1696.[1]

Turner helped his father-in-law's election at the 1695 general election, when he was returned himself as Member of Parliament for King's Lynn with his uncle Sir John Turner. With his position unassailable, he was returned unopposed at every general election for the rest of his life. He was appointed a Lord of Trade in 1707 and was then Lord of the Admiralty from 1714 to 1717.[1] In 1720 he was appointed Lord of the Treasury. He was created a baronet on 27 April 1727. From 1729 he was a Teller of the Exchequer, retiring as Lord of the Treasury in 1730. He become Father of the House in 1730.[2]

Turner's first wife Mary died in 1701 and by 1705 he married secondly Mary Catelyn, widow of Sir Nevil Catelyn of Kirby Cane and daughter of Sir William Blois of Grundisburgh, Suffolk. He died suddenly on 24 November 1738, at Houghton, and was buried at Warham. By his first wife he had a son who predeceased him and four daughters.[1] He was succeeded by his younger brother John.[3] [4]
