Sir Henry Sullivan, 2nd Baronet
Sir Henry Sullivan, 2nd Baronet (13 March 1785 – 14 April 1814) was an English politician and army officer. He was the son of Sir Richard Sullivan, 1st Baronet, a Member of Parliament, who also wrote a number of books on political matters. Educated at Eton College, Henry inherited the baronetcy on the death of his father in July 1806. In the October 1812 general election Sullivan, a supporter of the ruling Tory party, was simultaneously elected Member of Parliament (MP) for both Rye and Lincoln. Standing down as MP for Rye after a by-election in December 1812, Sullivan continued to represent Lincoln until his death in April 1814. Since he was a serving soldier, he played little part in Parliamentary business. He made no formal speeches, and voted only twice – in May 1813 against the Catholic Relief Bill and in June 1813 in support of Christian missions to India as part of the Charter Bill.

Memorial Plaque, Sir Henry Sullivan, St Nicholas Church, Thames Ditton
A memorial is an object or place which serves as a focus for the memory or the commemoration of something, usually an influential, deceased person or a historical, tragic event. Popular forms of memorials include landmark objects or works of art such as sculptures, statues or fountains and parks. Larger memorials may be known as monuments. Types The most common type of memorial is the gravestone or the memorial plaque. Also common are war memorials commemorating those who have died in wars. Memorials in the form of a cross are called intending crosses. Online memorials are often created on websites and social media to allow digital access as an alternative to physical memorials which may not be feasible or easily accessible. When somebody has died, the family may request that a memorial gift (usually money) be given to a designated charity, or that a tree be planted in memory of the person. Those temporary or makeshift memorials are also called grassroots memorials.''Grassroo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Church Of St Nicholas, Thames Ditton
St Nicholas Church in Thames Ditton, Surrey, England, is a Grade I listed Anglican parish church that has parts that date back to the 12th century. History The Norman manorial owner after the Conquest gave the churchlands and tithes payable across the privately held land (the bulk, which did not form wooded or meadowland common or unproductive waste) to the monks of the parish to Merton Priory: during the reign of Henry I (1100–1135), Gilbert the Norman, High Sheriff of Surrey, gave the advowson of Kingston - the right to appoint the incumbent priest of a church - together with four young chapelries to Merton Priory. Whether these were fully built of stone at the point is uncertain. Gilbert died in 1125, which demonstrates a functional chapelry, whether or not of stone, at Thames Ditton around 1120, with higher levels of ecclesiastical control by Kingston Church and Merton Priory. In any event the earliest stonework of the church appears to English Heritage to date to the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

People Educated At Eton College
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
