Henry John Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston, KG, GCB, PC, FRS (20 October 1784 – 18 October 1865) was a British statesman who served twice as Prime Minister in the mid-19th century. Palmerston dominated British foreign policy during the period 1830 to 1865, when Britain was at the height of her imperial power. He held office almost continuously from 1807 until his death in 1865. He began his parliamentary career as a Tory, defected to the Whigs in 1830, and became the first Prime Minister of the newly formed Liberal Party in 1859.
Palmerston succeeded to his father's Irish peerage in 1802. He became a Tory MP in 1807, and, from 1809 to 1828, served as Secretary at War, as which he was responsible for the organisation of the finances of the army. He first attained Cabinet rank in 1827, when George Canning became Prime Minister, but, like other Canningites, he resigned from office one year subsequently.
Thomas Charles Colyear, Earl of Portmore, Viscount Milsington, Lord Portmore, Colonel of the North Lincoln Militia; born 1772 (son of William, last Earl, by Lady Mary Leslie, daughter of the Earl of Rothes); succeeded his father in 1823. Married Lady Mary Elizabeth Bertie, only daughter of the last Duke of Ancaster, who died 1797.
Lord Portmore was a Member of Parliament (MP) for the borough of Boston in Lincolnshire from 1796 to 1802.
