Sir Henry St John Carew St John-Mildmay, 4th Baronet (15 April 1787 – 17 January 1848), of Dogmersfield Park, Hampshire, was an English politician.
He was the son of Sir Henry St John-Mildmay, 3rd Baronet of Dogmersfield Park and educated at Winchester School (1798-1802) and Christ Church, Oxford (1805).
He was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Winchester 1807–1818 and Mayor of Winchester for 1808.[1]
He succeeded his father in the baronetcy on 11 Nov. 1808. He married twice; firstly, in 1809, Charlotte, the daughter of Hon. Bartholomew Bouverie, with whom he had one son. In 1815, five years after Charlotte's untimely death from giving birth to their son, he eloped with her sister Harriet (wife of Archibald Primrose, 4th Earl of Rosebery) in Stuttgart, Württemberg. Together they had three sons. Sadly, Harriet eventually left him and, plagued by financial problems, he shot himself on 17 January 1848.
