George Arbuthnot (20 November 1802, Norbiton, Surrey - 28 July 1865) was a distinguished[1] member of the permanent British civil service. He worked in the Treasury at the Colonial Office in Hong Kong when the HSBC charter was first drawn up; Arbuthnot Road, Hong Kong was named after him.[2]

Career

Arbuthnot served in the Treasury. He was appointed by Lord Liverpool a junior clerk in the Treasury 18 July 1820 and served with that department until his death, as private secretary to six successive Secretaries of the Treasury. In February, 1843, he was appointed private secretary to Sir Robert Peel and subsequently to Sir Charles Wood, later Viscount Halifax.

He was then holding the appointment of auditor of the civil list and was also secretary to the ecclesiastical commissioners. He was twice offered the appointment of financial member of the council of the governor-general of India, first on the death of Mr James Wilson, PC in 1860 and then on the retirement of Sir Charles Trevelyan in 1865, but was obliged to turn down the offer on health grounds on both occasions.

Personal life

Arbuthnot was the son of Lt-General Sir Robert Arbuthnot, KCB.

He was married (1829) to Augusta Papendick (died 1853) and then (1857) to Louisa Anne Jones (daughter of Lt-General Sir Richard Jones, KCB). George Arbuthnot was father of General Henry Thomas Arbuthnot.

He wrote a retrospective economic analysis of Sir John Peel's 1844 act regulating the issue of banknotes:

  • Sir Robert Peel's Act of 1844, Regulating the Issue of Bank Notes, Vindicated, Longman, 1857.

He died in 1865.

Background of the Spanish Civil War

Historical context leading to the Spanish Civil War The background of the Spanish Civil War dates back to the end of the 19th century, when the owners of large estates, called latifundios, held most of the power in a land-based oligarchy. The landowners' power was unsuccessfully challenged by the industrial and merchant sectors. In 1868 popular uprisings led to the overthrow of Queen Isabella II of the House of Bourbon. In 1873 Isabella's replacement, King Amadeo I of the House of Savoy, abdi...
