Hampshire (UK Parliament Constituency)

(Officially the name was The County of Southampton, and it was occasionally referred to as Southamptonshire.)

As in other county constituencies, the franchise between 1430 and 1832 was defined by the Forty Shilling ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
