Byron Family: Public Offices and Family Philanthropy
This Series covers documents concerning Edmund Byron’s involvement in public offices, with some items which reveal aspects of his philanthropy within the Coulsdon community. The strength of the Series lies in detailed documentation of his candidature in the Surrey County Council elections from 1888, when he was elected as a County Councillor, through to 1898, when he initially stood for election but withdrew when opposed by a late-entry and strong alternative candidate.
There are also documents relating to St. John’s church, Coulsdon, and Edmund’s appointment as a Justice of the Peace. Contributions to the church are also recorded in AR1057/3/163/11 – Domestic and Family Expenses and Accounts.
There is significant overlap with AR1057/1 – Personal Correspondence and AR1057/6 – Journals and Memoirs. Together with these other sources, a full picture of the family’s public and philanthropic roles in Coulsdon and the wider county community may be acquired. Researchers are particularly referred to AR1057/6/112 – Journal kept by Charlotte Emily and Edmund Byron, 1867-1875.
