Joseph Hoare (21 March 1814 – 21 January 1886)[1] was a British Conservative Party politician and banker.[2]
Early life and family[edit]
Born in 1814 at Child's Hill House in Hampstead,[3] London, Hoare was the fourth son of Samuel Hoare and Louisa Gurney, daughter of John Gurney and Catherine Barclay.[4]
Hoare was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, before becoming a Partner in Hoare's Bank in Lombard Street, London, the UK's oldest and world's fourth oldest bank, which was founded by his ancestor Richard Hoare.[4] He married Anne Amelia Buxton, daughter of Charles Buxton and Martha Henning, in 1836, but they had no children before her death in 1843.[5][6]
In 1847, he remarried to Rachel Juliana Barclay, daughter of former MP Charles Barclay and Anna Maria Kett.[6][4]
Political career[edit]
He was elected MP for Kingston upon Hull in the 1859 general election but was unseated just under four months later, owing to corruption. In 1868 he stood for election at Manchester but failed to gain the seat.[7][8]
Other activities[edit]
Hoare was at some point the Deputy Lieutenant of Middlesex and president of the Hampstead Conservative Association.[4]
