Sir (Collingwood) George Clements Hamilton, 1st Baronet (1 November 1877 – 12 January 1947) was an English electrical engineer and Conservative Party politician.[1]

Born in Northumberland,[2] he was the son of a prominent Church of England cleric, the Venerable George Hans Hamilton, Archdeacon of Lindisfarne then Northumberland, Canon of Durham and his wife Lady Louisa Hamilton.[1]

Early career and family

Following education at Aysgarth School and Charterhouse School, he was apprenticed to the firm of Scott & Mountain Ltd, a Newcastle-based electrical and general engineering company. He represented the company in various countries including India, Bulgaria, Greece, Russia and Egypt.[1] He subsequently became the managing director of the Manchester branch of Drake & Gorham, electrical engineers.[3]

He married Eleanor Simon of Didsbury in 1906, and they had one son and one daughter.[1]

War service

During World War I he was commissioned as an officer in the Queen's Westminster Rifles, the 16th Battalion of the London Regiment, rising to the rank of major.[1] In October 1916 he was transferred to the General List.[4] He was appointed Director of Enrolment National Service in 1917 and Controller of Contract Claims at the Ministry of Munitions in 1918.[1][5]

Political career

From 1910 to 1913 he was a councillor on the Knutsford Urban District Council.[6]

In 1913 he won a by-election and was elected to the Commons as Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for Altrincham. He served as Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Minister of Pensions from 1919 to 1920.[1] He held the seat until 1923. He returned to parliament at another by-election at Ilford in 1928. He resigned from the House of Commons in 1937.

He was knighted in 1922 Birthday Honours,[5][7] and made a baronet in the 1937 Coronation Honours "for political and public services".[8][9]

Later life

Hamilton moved to Cransford Hall, near Saxmundham in Suffolk. He became a member of East Suffolk County Council, and was chairman of two companies: the Expanded Metal Company and the National Group of Fixed Trusts.[1]

He died at Cransford in January 1947, aged 69.[3][10]
