William Mayhew (2 March 1787 – 26 April 1855) was a British politician. The eldest child of three sons and a daughter born to William and Hannah Mayhew, of Coggeshall, Mayhew's father was a victualler and innkeeper who had formerly earned his living as a woolcomber. The Mayhew family were of some distinction, being descendants of Augustine Mayhew (1622-1693), an attorney and lord of the manors of Great and Little Coggeshall, and William Mayhew (c. 1736-1787), a barrister, bencher of Gray's Inn, high steward and recorder of Colchester, and recorder of Ipswich and Aldeburgh.[1] Second son Thomas became a cabinet maker at Coggeshall; the third brother, James, later a brandy merchant, was a partner in William's business as a wine, beer and spirit merchant in London. William was declared bankrupt in 1843.[2] Mayhew was the Whig Member of Parliament (MP) for Colchester, Essex from 9 April 1831 to 1832.[3] Mayhew lived at Camberwell, Surrey. He was survived by his widow and children, including son William, who administered his father's estate.[4] References1. ^http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1820-1832/member/mayhew-william-1788-1855 {{DEFAULTSORT:Mayhew, William}}{{England-UK-MP-stub}}2. ^http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1820-1832/member/mayhew-william-1788-1855 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.leighrayment.com/commons/Ccommons5.htm|title=House of Commons|publisher=Leigh Rayment|accessdate=27 July 2010}} 4. ^http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1820-1832/member/mayhew-william-1788-1855 5 : 1787 births|1855 deaths|Members of the Parliament of the United Kingdom for English constituencies|UK MPs 1831–32|Whig (British political party) MPs |
