Edward Portman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For his son, the British politician, see Edward Portman, 1st Viscount Portman. For the British peer, see Edward Portman, 9th Viscount Portman.

Edward Berkeley Portman (31 January 1771 – 19 January 1823, Rome) of Bryanston House, Bryanston, Dorset was an 18th-century English housing developer and politician.[1]

He was the son of Henry Portman, and ultimately a descendant of the Tudor landowner Sir William Portman. Edward continued his father's work developing the family lands in London into the Portman Estate. He was appointed High Sheriff of Dorset for 1798–99.

He also sat as Member of Parliament for Boroughbridge between 1802 and 1806[2] and for Dorset between 1806 and 1823.[3]

Marriage and issue

On 21 August 1798, he married Lucy Whitby (10 Mar 1778 - 25 Mar 1812), daughter of Reverend Thomas Whitby. Among their children were:

After Lucy's death in 1812, he married as his second wife Mary Hulse, daughter of Sir Edward Hulse, 3rd Baronet Hulse, on 22 March 1816. The couple had no children.[4]
