{{Other people|George Bowyer}}{{Use dmy dates|date=January 2017}}{{Use British English|date=January 2017}}Sir George Bowyer, 6th Baronet and 2nd Baronet, KStJ, GCSG, KCPO (3 March 1783 – 1 July 1860),[1] was a British politician. He sat in the House of Commons in two periods between 1807 and 1818, first as a Tory[2] and then as a Whig.[3]

He was the son of Admiral Sir George Bowyer, 5th Baronet, and his second wife Henrietta Brett, daughter of Admiral Sir Piercy Brett,[2] and was born at Radley Hall in Berkshire.[3]

In 1800, he succeeded his father as baronet.[1] Bowyer was educated at Christ Church, Oxford, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1804 and a Master of Arts in 1807.[4]

At the 1807 general election, Bowyer was elected in the Tory interest as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Malmesbury,[5] a seat which he held until his resignation in 1810[6]

by appointment as Steward of the Manor of East Hendred.[7]

He returned to Parliament the following year as a Whig, when he was elected at an unopposed by-election in June 1811 as the MP for Abingdon, following the resignation of Henry Bowyer.[8][9] He was re-elected in 1812, defeating his Tory opponent by a margin of 112 votes to 11,[8] and held the seat until the 1818 general election.[10] In 1815, financial difficulties forced him to sell the contents of Radley Hall.[11] As a consequence, he moved with his family to Italy, converting to Roman Catholicism in 1850.[11]

On 19 November 1808, he married Anne Hammond Douglas, oldest daughter of Captain Sir Andrew Snape Douglas.[12] They had three sons and a daughter.[13]

Death

Bowyer died at Dresden in Germany, but was buried at Radley. He was succeeded in both baronetcies successively by his sons George and William.[3]

Honours

Bowyer was a Knight of the Venerable Order of Saint John (KStJ), a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of St. Gregory the Great (GCSG) and a Knight Commander of the Order of Pius IX (KCPO).[14]
