Constituency : Herefordshire 1859-65
Humphrey was the son of a merchant banker who was Conservative MP for Southampton in the 1840s. He married the daughter of Alexander Baring and so Humphrey in due course became a partner in Baring's.
He died in 1866 - according to Lord Lyttelton who married his widow Sybella he "died raving mad after some dreadful months for her and every one else" - at the age of 40 leaving £300,000 as his estate.
