1852 ( 1358a ) Robert Cameron




Constituency : Houghton-le-Spring 1895-1913

Here's  one  that  got  missed  earlier. Robert  took  over  from  Henry  Fenwick  at  Houghton-le-Spring  back  in  1895.

Robert's  maiden  speech  was  in  favour  of  teachers'  pensions. Given  his  length  of  service, Robert's  contributions  were  few  and  ceased  altogether  after  1906.

Robert  increased  his  majority  at  each  successive  election  and  was  unopposed  in  December  1910.

He  died  in  1913  aged  87.
