Nicholas Robinson (mayor)
Nicholas Robinson (1769 – 1854) was Mayor of Liverpool, England, in 1828–29. He was a rich corn merchant who had paid £4500 for the land in Aigburth, Liverpool, upon which he had Sudley House built as his home around 1824. He died at Sudley on 3 or 4 February 1854 and the house then passed into the ownership of his two daughters. Robinson was first elected to Liverpool council on 4 January 1815. He contested unsuccessfully against Thomas Colley Porter for the office of mayor in 1827, in an election that was notorious for the bribery that ensued. The situation was fuelled by the economic expansion of the city, which meant that some people were awash with money.

Porter, who was a Whig, had the support of the ''Liverpool Mercury The ''Liverpool ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
